This place is highly recommended if you are a young traveler traveling alone. The place is clean, comfortable, the staff are very kind, and the price is reasonable considering that you are in schweiz. The view of luzern from there is amazing.

I will definitely stay here if i ever return to schweiz. Without a doubt, the hostel is the best ive ever stayed in. The host, nina, is wonderful, kind, and keeps the place under control so neighbors are not disturbed. The location is excellent, with breathtaking views, and it is only a short bus ride from lucerne train station. I made wonderful new friends at the hostel because it is very social.

The host is amazing. Everything in the accommodation is carefully planned to make it easy for guests to enjoy their stay. The location is beautiful and very close to the mt. Pilatus cable car station. I highly recommend this place for solo travelers.

This is such a wonderful experience! Rainer is a fantastic host. Extremely kind and trustworthy. The hostel typically draws in some really cool people, adding to its uniqueness. The vista is not a joke. Despite being close to town, the location doesnt seem like you are in town. He offers you a Swiss pass that magically makes the bus free? Its magic, i didnt pay for the bus once, and the bus stop is only a 2minute walk from the house. He has also a lot of connections in lucerne. Fantastic dude and house. Ill be back.

This hostel is truly unique, and i would recommend it to anyone, especially solo travelers looking to meet likeminded people. The hostel is located in a quieter part of town, with large windows that let you enjoy your lunch while enjoying the alps. The atmosphere is really open and friendly, which is also beneficial to all the backpackers staying here. The beds are comfortable, the food is reasonably priced, the quiet place is perfect for sleeping, and the vibe is unmatched. Rainer, montana, and mina deserve our gratitude for their kindness.

I will definitely return to this wonderful house, filled with warmth. I had an unforgettable and beautiful time here. The house is in a great location above the city. With an amazing panoramic view of the swiss Alps. You have everything your heart desires in the house. Every little detail a visitor could want has been considered in the interior design. When i arrived, the host, reiner, and the others there were all very friendly and helpful. Everyone there was very nice and upbeat.

Sisi jalan yang tenang, pemandangan spektakuler Gunung Pilatus dan beberapa danau di sekitarnya. Kerumunan yang didekorasi dengan penuh cita rasa, paham digital, penuh warna, dan ramah. Tuan rumah Rainer adalah harta karun, pastikan untuk mencoba koleksi minuman keras dan snappy-nya.

Would strongly suggest it. The location is accessible but away from the main area. The view is amazing, and the place was clean and well maintained. I woke up early and took a walk further up the hill, which ended up being an adventure of its own with amazing views. Pro tip before trekking up the hill for checkin, stop by a grocery store in the main area and pick up snacks / drinks / breakfast foods / pastries.
