We spent only one night, but it was great being there. The place has a "charm" of its own. All clean, goods and spacious rooms, well located (if you like beer, there is an amazing brewhouse just on the next door). Breakfast was not included, but we could pre-order the night before and the next day we received it fresh from the nearby suppliers ;-)

The best thing for me was the location. It was a few minutes away from Bus, and Train Stations. Also, the COOP Supermarket was also 1 minute away from the location.

+ staff were so helpful and friendly. + the dorm was great. There’s like 2 rooms. First one you enter has 2 sinks and lockers, the second room has the beds. Never saw this before but means noise is kept to a minimum as packing and unpacking is not done where you’re sleeping. + breakfast was included for free - was great to have the bread, cereal, hams and cheeses. Made me full enough to have a very light lunch. + plug sockets and lights next to each bed + shower room had lots of space where you could put clothes to hang and big enough shelf for toiletries - small things like that makes it worthwhile

The location was great, right near the hostel there is a bus stop, and the bus goes directly from/to the main railway station. My main destination was Rheinfall Waterfall, and I traveled with only one bus there and back. Breakfast was amazing, with very fresh bread, and a great choice buffet.

Location was easy to get to from Zurich HB. I’d recommend taking the tram from the station as the closest stop is only a 3-min (or less) walk to the accommodation. (We caught tram 4 and tickets can be purchased where the tram stop is). Location was pretty central too! Had so many eateries surrounding it and it was a very short walk to catch some beautiful views of Lake Zurich. It’s especially beautiful at night - very peaceful and a good place to reflect/relax by the waters :)

The staff is so helpful and friendly and welcoming too! I love this hostel location, its complete facilities and cleanliness (it's fragrant, too, if you enter the shower room). It is located in the city centre where you can explore Zurich's attractions, including Christmas markets.

All hostels in Winterthur

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.

    Honestly the best hostel I've ever been to and I've travelled all around Europe. Great value for money and both Zurich and Schaffhausen are easily reached by train thanks to Winterthur's good connections.

    it was my best stay in a hostel so far! great facilities, everything was clean and nicely decorated. i felt safe as a solo travelling girl and would have loved to stay longer than one night. rather expensive for a hostel but very good value for that! would definitely recommend! very kind staff and lovely service as well

    First hostel I've been to that really is as nice, clean and with good quality facilities as it looks in the fotos. And all that at a really reasonable price. It's a 5-10min walk from the train station, where you have trains to Zurich HB every 10mins. If you want to visit Zurich (and surroundings) on a budget, this is a great place to stay.
