Probably the best value you will find (unless you take the gondola up and ski down for lunch on the Italian side!) in all of Zermatt for anything. Altho this is a youth hostel there were people of all ages (including lots of families w/ small children---the only down-side as it tended to be a bit noisy and out of... More

As a family of 4 it was looking incredbily expensive for us to ski and stay in Zermatt, but we were determined to do it. We stumbled upon this Youth Hostel via internet and couldn't have been happier. Be aware that there is another youth hostel down the road, but this one seemed from other reviews, better for families. We... More

I stayed 3 nights in November2011. Hostel rooms were basic, clean, good showers, central heated and with view of Matterhorn. Breakfast buffet was cereal choice, juice, bread, cheeses, and ham. Coffee and selection of teas included. Evening meal between 6-7.30. As I was out at this time staff were very helpful in putting a meal aside for me. Food was... More

A really smart, exceptionally clean youth hostel. Very friendly and helpful staff, and have stayed here twice. Zermatt is not cheap, especially when there's a poor exchange rate, but this is one of very few budget options in town. Half board is included in the price, and the food was, generally, very good. Four courses each evening, and a buffet... More

I read the trip advisor reviews and thought that that compulsory half board might justify the price but I would rather self cater. The food and service were average and the feel of the hostel was quite sterile. More

Having stayed at one of the 4 star hotels in Zermatt for a couple of days courtesey of my uncle for my cousins wedding, I was a little nervous having to de-camp to the youth hostel as that was the only accommodation in Zermatt that I could personally afford! My friend and I had one of the rooms (323) which... More

I recently spent three nights at the Youth Hostel and probably would not choose to do so again if I were in Zermatt for skiing. The hostel is located up a steep, steep hill so at the end of a ski day, carrying your skis and wearing boots it's quite an irritation to have to haul oneself up the hill.... More
