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 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.

The location is really central in Zurich. Since it is a hostel, I would have expected to have noise from other people and maybe some disconfort concerning the rooms. But it was actually very quiet during the night and the beds were really comfortable. They also let us store our bags after checkout and when we came back to get them we could access the bathrooms to have one last shower before following the trip.

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.
