Youth Hostel St. Alban features both bedrooms with private bathrooms and shared dormitory rooms. All have a minimalist design but are still extremely comfortable. Expect lots of wood furniture and large windows. Amazing experience. I stayed here for three nights in a room for six. Hostel, surprisingly a large building, is located in old and peaceful part of Basel. It's within short walking distance to Rhein river, Munster cathedral and Kunstmuseum tram station. I was given Basel Card at the reception which granted me free access to public transport and 50% discount to all museums. I really liked my room and my bed and I didn't mind the fact there were no curtains. Design of the room is really smart, as personal lockers and sink are separated from the beds/sleeping area with a wooden doors, thus keeping the noise at minimum. To add up, no check-ins are possible after 23:30 which allows you to sleep tight. Toilets and washrooms are on the same floor, just outside of the room in the hall. Breakfast starts at 6.00 am which I found really handy as I checked out early for my flight. Staff was really professional. You can also buy souvenirs at the reception and umbrella as well. I will definitely book again when I come back to Basel. Thank you, Hostel!

Set in Beinwil, 32 km from Lion Monument, Beinwil am See Youth Hostel offers accommodation with a garden, private parking, a private beach area and a shared lounge. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also welcomes guests with a restaurant and a terrace. The property is non-smoking and is situated 32 km from KKL Culture and Convention Centre Lucerne. The building is gorgeous and I love the morning with birds chirping happily. We strolled along the lake too. Doris was very kind to arrange to pick us to/ from the station. It was not inclusive. But we enjoyed the walk to/from the station daily (without the luggage of course. ;)). ) The room was simple but comfortable. I like the sink in the room is good for easy wash up in the morning n night. I love the breakfast. Assorted bread,cheese,fruits etc Maggie and Joshua are very friendly and helpful . They are both very Hard working too. Joshua is young and cheerful. Maggie is a pretty lady. We passed by by the kitchen which is kept clean. They all seem to help in the kitchen. Doris is lucky to have such good staffs. If we come back, we'll like to stay here again.
