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.

    The location and scenery is unreal and was something I couldn't believe every time I stood and took in the landscape of where you were. Breakfast included is a touch. Staff were all super friendly and the hostel as a whole is just good vibes.

    The staff was excellent. It was our first time in a hostel and we were a bit hesitant, but once they welcomed us to the warm and inviting atmosphere we were in love with the views and people and guests. We didn’t want to leave. The pizza was great, and the mulled wine was even better. So glad we did this trip. We were very comfortable in the private room as a couple, the bed was comfy, it was warm even though it was freezing temperatures outside.

    We loved this place. The hostel in welcoming and cozy. Lot of effort is put in place for that and we really felt like at home. The stuff is nice and open. Bathrooms were always clean. Can’t recommend more! Keep in mind there are a couple of cats going around if you are allergic.

    It totally exceeded our expectations. Best way to spend our 25th wedding anniversary. Imagine waking up with a view of the Alps from your room, what could be better than that? Add the friendly and homey vibe of the place, the best pizza we've ever had, and guests and staff who all make you feel like family. Our experience was truly magical. We definitely recommend the Mountain Hostel and would stay here again next time we visit Gimmelwald.
