This was my first hostel experience. Overall, it was fine but I had to get use to the small room with no frills and a shared bathroom. The experience turned out well overall and I would do one again. The biggest plus was the nice breakfast which saved us $. Getting to the hostel wasn't too bad. It was a 5 min. walk from the bus stop and 10 min. max. downtown from here.

Luzern Youth Hostel was very clean, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was really good as well. Best of all I had the room to myself, which was unexpected as it was a dormitory. If I could be guaranteed that I would stay in hostels always. The one downside is having to pay extra for a towel

It's just like a simple dorm room style facilities. Very basic. Considering the cost of living in Lusern, I should not expect too much. However, there were some camp activities for middle schoolers (?) going on on the day we stayed. Kids running around yelling knocking our room door for no reasons. There seemed no adults supervision until like 10 pm. And the kids upstairs kept on making loud noise. They finally quiet down like 11:30 pm. I am sure this only happen occasionally. I hope the administrators of this facility can look into this issue.

the location is not so good, it's dark and fewer people are around the building in the evening. It would be nice if there is a staff for 24 hours, because there is a guy who keep speaking phone for 30min at 10 pm. However, the breakfast is great, I will consider come back next time

Everything was well-run and the staff were all welcoming and hospitable. The shared bathrooms and showers were in great shape and always clean. Our only “complaint” was really just a suggestion: air hand dryers in the bathrooms instead of paper towels. The paper towels were above average in quality and we appreciated that, but we felt hand dryers might be more ecological. Overall, a great value for the money and well organized.

It is a fair experience, given the cost of the hostel. It would be nicer though if they had considered putting a fan inside the rooms during heat seasons.

Booked on a Quad Room with the 2-bunk beds, shared T&B on Aug 16-19,2023. Just very warm on summer days thus we opened the windows while on beds just to get fresh air. Around 8mins walk to local bus stop, 8-10mins going to the Centre. Breakfast included and good enough to start your day. You have to pay extra for towel at €3.00 each however linens are free. Warm Receptions a plus yet up to 7pm only.

It was my first hostel experience, and my only complaint is I did not know they had a laundry service until I left, I wish they advertised this somewhere, because I took the bus to do laundry. I also wish that they had fans for the room. Other than that the stay was perfect, and convenient

After spending my youth going through hostels, i wasnt expecting much, since prices in switzerland are generally very high, but we were very pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. Only downside is no ac in the room ans it was quite warm. But the windows openes (no screen) so it worked. Bathroom facilities were top notch.

Stayed in a private 2bd room so it seemed more like a regular hotel (compared to dorm room hostel) with shared bathroom facilities. It was clean and although it's called Youth Hostel, there were older people and families as well (I imagine because Switzerland is expensive this is a good way to save a few bucks). Stayed on a weekend and the noise levels were totally fine. Parking was super easy and cheap. The bus straight in to town is only about a 5 minute walk away and they give you a free bus pass as well.

Dreadful place. Bare walls and floors, the absence of soft furnishings etc meant that it was noisy above my room, in the corridor and next door up to midnight and from 6am next day. Rooms are like clean and tidy cells with not one spare socket or seat other than a tiny stool. Staff were very helpful - not their fault that the place is not fit to be on a hotel website. Vastly overpriced for what's on offer. Like been in a playground.

My first time at Youth, for sure this is for young student or very active people, staff are good, and same as public area. bathroom are clean. But room itself is not for family, this build right face to a road with a lot of traffic, we arrived at at day with 32C, which we could not close window, noise all night. if you want something basic with nice price, this one maybe your choice, otherwise go somewhere else.

It was a spot difficult to locate even with google maps. There is no elevator and there are very few toilets and washrooms for the number of people using it. There is no wifi in the rooms which was annoying. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Helpful staff, somewhat convenient location, good breakfast. Only drawback, internet reception went out once you got past the first two floors. Perhaps they did this because those staying in the dormitory would have to listen to any alarms or alerts going off coming from cellphones.
