Lovely location up on the mountain in Ristis. Beautiful nature and lots of areas for kids to play. The lodge is quite modern and rooms and beds really comfortable and clean. We slept really well! We had to share showers / bathrooms and at times had to wait but it was not a big problem. Quality of the showers was excellent. The food was superb and service great too, thank you!

Nadia and Thomas (and Barry the lovely dog) made me feel so welcome. Breakfast was all organic local food with fresh fruit, bircher muesli... nothing was too much trouble. Comfortable, immaculately clean rooms with a stunning view of the mountains. Straight out the door onto the cobbled streets at the heart of Engelberg.

The location was great, it was really close to the town, right on the lake, and very close to a great kayak rental shop that I used. The hosts were so kind and helpful, the hostel was very clean and well-thought out, and everything was just excellent, especially for my first time staying in a hostel and traveling alone.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
