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.

    This hostel was luxurious by hostel standards. The location and building were gorgeous. The rooms and bathroom were beautifully appointed and fastidiously clean, the welcome was friendly and efficient and the breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

    Lovely family hostel in a 500 year old farmhouse. We had a little cosy room in the roof. The lady at reception was lovely and helpful.

    We were traveling through; therefore, this was a convenient place to stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and check-in after midnight was no problem due to the safe lockers for which we received a code where the key was. Simple but fresh breakfast with different breads and croissants, jams, cheeses, and meat. Clean and big room with a functional bathroom with hot water, towels, and shampoo. It was beautifully located close to the lake.

    Very warm welcome. Kind and friendly staff. We enjoyed a refreshing draft beer on arrival. Undercover & safe parking for our motorbike. Very comfy bed. Lovely breakfast. Gasthaus Schäfli is not modern, but although the facilities are simple and rather dated, we had everything we needed, enjoyed a lovely stay and would stay again with no hesitation. We loved it! Thank you.

    Great location, the rooms were good with a great balcony over looking the lake. The Bathrooms were a good size, however , the towels were very thin and not was expected. The staff in restaurant were very good and the food excellent (If expensive).. However, the menu had very limited choices, so whilst food was good, there was very little choice

    We were very happy with our stay at this nice old-fashioned European style hotel. The host provided a safe place to store our bicycles overnight and made it possible to get the bikes out early before the hotel opened. Our bed was super comfortable.

    Awesome. Right on the lake. Couldn’t have asked for a better location. I was a bit paranoid about the shared bathroom (my hostel days are behind me) but the communal areas were very clean and there are many of them so I never had to wait for a shower/ toilet. We had a quadruple room and it came with a basin (very handy). Ten out of ten.

    Great location. Right next to the lake although you need to park at the top and it is quite a walk down a steep hill. We arrived by ebike and could charge the bike in a locked shed near the road. Very friendly place and only one group staying there so it wasn't too noisy. Super breakfast.
