Clean, functional, good breakfast, nice room if you compare to a youth hostel. 15 minutes walk from Grindelwald center so have a car or be ready to walk. We came from 8 hours hiking over Grosse Scheidegg and we were dreaming about a beer, so the choice was limited to the restaurant above the nearby bahnhof. A good hostel if... more

For skiiers the location of this hostel is brilliant, close to the train station to get to Kleine Scheidegg and close to the cable car to get to Männlichen. The rooms were ok, bunk beds and a sink which was handy, unfortunately we had problems with the heating, we just could not get it to work, so that was a... more

We booked the group hostel wing ("Selbstversorgerhaus") of the Mountain Hostel with about 40 persons, 0 to 65 years old. Overall it was a great stay. The hostel is directly located at the main parking area of the valley station "Männlichenbahn". Moreover, the train station "Grindelwald-Grund" is about 100 m to go. The train to the "Kleine Scheidegg" is free... more

Nice, clean hostel in pretty location on river. Rooms and bathrooms are very basic though, and price is still kind of high. more

We booked a hostel in Grindelwald to try and save money on our big trip. What a wonderful, pleasant surprise! I expected creepy and noisy and what we got was clean, helpful and a delightful experience! The front desk help was exactly that, HELPFUL! Madelyn answered questions, gave us suggestions, did our laundry -- they even had stamps for postcards.... more

I had a great time in Grindelwald; fantastic hiking and the Mountain Hostel was terrific. Rooms were clean and equipped with lockers. Good shared showers and bathroom facilities. Outdoor kitchen was great: hot plate, sink, fridge, and all kinds of plates/cups/pots/pans/utensils makes it easy to buy food at the Coop in town and cook with the other guests -- a... more

If you are looking for some hiking, biking and amazing scenery, this is your place. My friend and I were on a road trip through Italy and decided to head up to Switzerland for a few days. I'm so glad we did, was the highlight of our trip. We drove to the end of a valley where we parked our... more

Check-in staff said that was free, but check-out staff said that was not free. What's wrong? Who are right? Don't make customers be ridiculous. more
