Wonderful stay! Very clean hostel. Staff were lovely and helpful. The view outside the hostel is amazing. Great location and easy to get to. Breakfast was good. Would definitely stay again.
Michelle, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hostel feels very clean and safe. The staff was very nice and helpful and breakfast included is a plus! I would say that this is pretty over priced for a hostel dormitory but it seems to be the only reputable option in the area. Overall would recommend!

Very good breakfast, great service, only wish there was a fan and I did not have to carry my luggage up and down 3 floors.
Rohita, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room is small with washbasin inside. From the window room you can see the beautiful Geneva lake. Shared bathroom and WC is clean. To reach the Montreux Youth Hostel or Auberge de Jeunesse Montreux, from Mountreux train station walk 2 minutes to Escaller de la Gare, take 201 bus toward Rennas Village and stop at Territet L'Eudine. Then walk 5-10 minutes to the hotel. There is a lift upto 1st floor, after that you need to use the stairs. It will be a problem if you have a big luggage. To reach Chillon, you can take 201 bus toward Rennas Village and stop at Chillon. Free breakfast: ham, salami, cheese, cereal, milk, chocolate, bread, juice, egg, fruit, coffee

10/10 Exceptional

Walkable from the bus stop, but take note there's a flight of stairs (I counted about 78 steps) via the shortest route. There's also a luggage friendly slope, but it's a bit of a detour. Nice clean facility. Lights in the toilet and showers work on a timer. (press and countdown type) The shower light went off in the middle of my shower and I was plunged into pitch black darkness because there are no windows in the shower room. Thankfully I remembered roughly where the switch was.. Good standard breakfast, but I believe coffee was chargeable.

Ein sehr gutes Hostel direkt am Genfersee liegend. Du gehst aus der Tür raus und du stehst vor dem See und Berge. Auf der anderen Seite ist Bus 201 bring dir in 10 Minuten zum Bahnhof. Sehr praktisch. Sehr freundliche Personal. Das frühstück lohnt sich wirklich

Fait le Tour du Lac Léman en vélo,très pratique pour passer la nuit car ils ont des garages a vélo fermant a clefs en toute sécurité

The property is modern and clean. The rooms are amazing with locker facility. The breakfast was great too! The only disappointment was there were no lifts and I had to drag my bags two floors up

Tudo muito bem organizado, uma opção ótima para Montreux. Fiquei em um quarto feminino compartilhado e foi como se estivesse sozinha. Só as dobradiças da porta que precisam de lubrificação para não fazer barulho na abertura, do restante nada a levar em consideração.

Razoável não voltaria

Para se chegar no hostel você deve descer uma escadaria assustador de tão longo. O check in r check out eles são extremamente rígidos. Só te atendem dentro do horário estipulado. O quarto é pequeno, fica apertado para acomodar 6 pessoas. Não tem ventilador e nem ar condicionado. Dormir com janela aberta foi muito complicado pois o trem passa literalmente na frente das janelas, todos de frente para o trilho e que este funciona das 4h da manhã até 24h. Não tem elevador. Para subir até o terceiro andar com mala foi bem complicado. Café da manhã simples. Este hostel fica bem afastado do centro e principais pontos turísticos. A lanchonete mais próxima fica a 2km. Único ponto positivo, a atendente Diana é atenciosa.

好多蒼蠅陪伴。千其唔好用寄存行李櫃,電子密碼鎖自行set密碼,到取行李時密碼鎖壞了開不到,通知reception處理reset,但唔work,又沒有後備鎖匙,最後要腳踢十多次使電子鎖接通電源即時按密碼才能開啟,勿用趕車出機場,勿用

4/10 Fair

ユースホステルでの支払いは、1 名あたり、1 泊につき、2.00 CHFの市税、 観光税 0.40 CHFと記載されていましたが、5.0CHF請求されました。 私が2.4CHFではないのかと聞くと、それは8年前の料金で、今は5.0CHFだと言われ、5.0CHF支払わされました。なぜ8年前の料金を記載したまま、情報を更新しないのでしょうか?しかも私が悪いかのように責め立てられ、非常に不愉快でした。 また、チェックイン時にMontreux Riviera Cardはもらえず、後で他のスタッフにお願いして、もらいました。

Ich denke, sie sollten etwas am Frühstück verbessern und zwei Personen an der Rezeption für den Check-in haben und nicht nur eine. Aber danach war alles in Ordnung.

Beau séjour!

Super emplacement et tout semble neuf. À quelques minutes de marche du château de Chillon et à deux pas d’un bus direct (5 min) du centre de Montreux. Magnifique vue sur le lac Léman. Petit déjeuner varié. Attention toutefois si vous avez le sommeil léger, le train est très près. Aussi, si vous cherchez un lieu pour faire des rencontres, je ne crois pas que ce soit la place. Si vous voulez la paix, c’est parfait :)

La colo pour les grands ;)

Sejour qui rappel les colonies de vacances. Pas de prise de tete. C'est ultra propre, le personnel serviable et adorable. L'auberge est les pieds dans le lac.. Seul benole le stationnement (mais on trouve solution), le bruit du chemin de fer *moi cela me berce.. apres si vous chercher le calme, silence.. passez votre tours. Je recommande a tous ceux qui veulent retrouver une sorte d'insouscience ;)

Pire hostel

Froid et impersonnel ; à l'étage, la chambre, les couloirs, les salles d'eau ressemblent étrangement à une prison (à la fois dans la "décoration" que dans l'aménagement). Les salles d'eau n'ont ni savon, ni miroir, ni même meuble pour nos affaires ; les toilettes n'avaient pas de lunette. Dans la chambre, très petite pas de drap sur les lits mais une sorte d'alèse rêche, pas de rideau, une prise cassée. Après signalement à la réception, aucun changement ou aménagement ("Ah oui, c'est comme ça"). Petit-déjeuner banal, sans étiquette pour savoir ce qu'on mange. La réceptionniste a été très professionnelle mais aucune solution apportée sur des points qui n'auraient même pas du être des problêmes... Pire hostel visité, trompé par les précédents avis. Il n'est pas question d'un mauvais rapport qualité/prix, il est juste question d'une mauvaise qualité, peu importe son prix.

God men falsk “varedeklaration”

Hvis du tror, at du booker et værelse på en gammel borg, bliver du meget skuffet, det er et billed stunt-til gengæld får du et værelse nedenunder en jernbane! Når det så er sagt, så er her rent, gode senge, fin morgenmad og god service og en fantastisk udsigt over Geneve søen fra hostels indgangsparti.

Reception ㄧ直說沒收到錢,要我當場付錢,我說已經付過了,他不接受,後來我先壓信用卡才暫時解

沒有電梯,行李重的有些累人,住宿點要搭公車,下公車後從上面再提行李走一大段路,有點辛苦
