MalaysiaI love the common room where we met lots of friends around the world. The establishment is also very generous by providing a variety of food and drinks for breakfast. And we were also surprised to find a mini-fridge inside our room that we don't see in other hostel of similar price.

ItalyThe 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.

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.

- Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.9Good - What previous guests thought, 2,723 reviewsComfortable bed, comfortable pillow, clean room, great locations. Nice atmosphere, and I felt safe in the hostel. They had curtains on the bed which I really like, gave us a little extra privacy. No big clash of bathroom usage either. Good value for money given how expensive things are in Zurich.Guest review byYSolo traveller

Sits right in the middle of oldtown, you have many options where to eat, a short distance to bellevue/stadelhofenplatz to take either bus, tram or train 👍🏼 if youre on a budget - COOP is the way 🛒 The Hostel was clean, i never have to wait for someone to finish shower🫰🏼👍🏼 they have basic amenities which is great👍🏼 Vending machine and coffee machine and theres a code for people who will arrive later than 10pm. I find this place safe and clean and good value for moneyGuest review byJohna HusayanGroup
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.2Very good - What previous guests thought, 1,689 reviewsThe hostel is very safe; I stayed in a female-only room. Each room is equipped with lockers that come with keys, and the doors require a passcode for access. They also provide towels, and there is a shared bathroom for both toilets and showers in the same corridor. I was able to leave my bag in the locker for free the day after my stay. Additionally, they offer complimentary drinks and coffee throughout the day, along with a free breakfast each morning.Guest review byAyaSolo traveller
- Avg. price/night: US$184.36Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very good - What previous guests thought, 4,072 reviewsAs always, youth hostel is a great place to meet great people from around the world and that was my favourite. Regarding the accommodation, i was in a four bed room with 2 bunk beds. As requested, I got a lower bed due to my backache issues. I stayed there two nights, so I don't have much to say. It just went well without any issues, so I'd say, all was great.Guest review byVishalSolo traveller

Delicous coffee from coffee machine for free during breakfeast time. For a youth hostel quite a decent breakfast buffet. Great location near the lake and close to public transportation. Well working WLAN.Guest review byCarstenFamily with young children
- Avg. price/night: US$160.83Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.6Good - What previous guests thought, 6,087 reviewsThe accommodation is in a great location, within walking distance of the train station and in the heart of the city centre, close to all amenities. The area is safe and quiet. The capsule is comfortable and spacious, equipped with a mirror, power sockets, coat hangers and a small shelf for storing things you need to keep with you. There is a lot of silence in the women's dormitory and you have coffee and snacks machines.Guest review bySilviaSolo traveller
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.9Good - What previous guests thought, 2,723 reviewsExcellent location. Staff were friendly and the accommodation was very clean, safe and comfortable. You can leave your luggage in the storeroom after you check out, but be sure to take note that luggage is not accepted prior to check-in. There are storage spaces at Central Station to utilise in case you missed the notes. Nevertheless, I highly recommend to any savvy and budget conscious traveller this place - Switzerland is very expensive in general, but this 'Friendly Hostel' is the perfect fit for one or even a few nights stay.Guest review byElsonSolo traveller

- Avg. price/night: US$160.83Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.6Good - What previous guests thought, 6,087 reviewsThe hostel is in the great location in Zurich, really central and great to visit the city. They are very practically organized with capsule beds and lockers for your bags both spacous and comfortable. We did not spend much time in the room, but it was definatelly worth it for a bit more budget place to stay in Zurich with better access location. Recommendation for solo travellers or shorter stays.Guest review byAleksandraYoung couple
