Came here because it was the cheapest place I could find on short notice - it ended up being a highlight of my trip. I was in a room with 8 beds total, but there were only 2 or 3 others there with me in the women-only dorm and all were quiet/friendly. I really appreciated the delicious included breakfast, and the Bern city transit pass that came with my stay. The coworking room, common area downstairs, and kitchen were also pleasant to have access to. The staff were super kind and helpful. I would come back here if I return to Bern.

A treat of a historical stay - and on a midweek night in January, we had the whole castle to ourselves!

All hostels in Bern

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.

VERY high standard of furnishings, gorgeous grounds , very friendly staff, perfect location and best hostel breakfast I’ve ever had. Appreciated being able to leave our luggage there upon checkout too and the 24 hour reception was really useful as we arrived late

The staff was very friendly and helpfull. The accomodations were roomy and the open kitchen very well organised. Cereals, milk and tea were for free and there was a small coffeemachine. All the rooms and shared spaces were really clean. This hostel deserves a spot in my top 3 of best hostels I visited.
