Das war eine ausgezeichnete Erinnerung. Warme Zimmer direkt am See. Heißes Wasser in den Duschen. Sauberer, gut organisierter Aufbau. Ruhiges, freundliches Personal, aber nicht aufdringlich. Das Frühstück war sehr umfangreich. Kaffee, gut zubereitet aus einer Schweizer Kaffeemaschine. Blick auf …
Nachts ist es etwas gruselig, aber es ist immer noch ein schöner Ort, aber wer nicht nach oben gehen kann, wird hier nicht empfohlen. Toiletten sind außerhalb und weit weg, aber für Rucksacktouristen ist es gut, dort zu bleiben.
Was für ein wunderschöner Ort. Erschwinglich mit toller Aussicht auf den Vierwaldstättersee. Das Personal ist auch sehr hilfsbereit. Dies ist ein ruhiger Zufluchtsort abseits der geschäftigen Städte. Wenn Sie Ruhe suchen, ist dies der richtige Ort. Es gibt Zugang zum See und die Nutzung des Bussystems war die beste Möglichkeit, sich fortzubewegen. Das Frühstück bestand aus ausgewogenen, nährstoffreichen Vollwertkost. Auch beim Frühstücksbuffet gab es vegetarische und vegane Optionen.
It's a great affordable option for budget travelers, and the wooden housing was comforting and felt thematic to the experience. It's a hostel, so you shouldn't expect service like a hotel, but staff were always friendly and people were mindful of sharing spaces. Beautiful location, and buses allowed us to get pretty much anywhere we wanted. Keep in mind the bus is about 7 CHF each way, consider the Swiss travel pass for cheaper transit if necessary. Breakfast was provided but dinner is reservation only. It is not a restaurant that seats walk-ins, they only have enough for the people who reserve in advance.
Definitely a hostel, aimed at a different demographic than a European Road tripper. Full of American kids it seemed. However, what a location, right on the lakeside. My room opened up to the lake. If I was with others, and was in my late teens/early twenties, it would have made a great base for Lucerne and the alps. However, just passing through. Rooms are very basic, and the WiFi doesn't reach. Also remember that your UK EU deal on phones isn't shared with Switzerland. I had to get an e-sim for my few days in the country. Shared shower and toilet rooms...ok, it is what it is, and it was clean. Stripping your own bed...well, again...you do it. Parking is at the top, by the entrance. There is a very steep path down to the actual hostel. No vehicular access. Very steep. Having to go back up twice to get things from the car...well, that's a workout in itself. The service from the staff, online and in-situ was great. I had to change my date, and despite policy saying no refunds, I was refunded for the date I no longer needed. So all positive there. Go with friends, make the most of the swimming in the make, the outside bbq etc.
Oh my gosh... this place is a glimpse of Heaven. From the view, to the rooms, to the staff. Our only regret is we only had one amazing night here! P.S. Chrisi from the front desk is amazing and I hope you're blessed to meet her!
