Zurich Youth Hostel

Wollishofen, Zürich

Offering 24-hour reception, free public Wi-Fi and a spacious lounge area with flat-screen TV and billiards, Youth Hostel Zurich is 80 metres away from the Jugendherberge bus stop.

The Youth Hostel serves a typical Swiss breakfast as well as packed lunches and dinners. Snacks are available around the clock. I stayed there on 2 occasions. All the receptionists are AMAZING, there was only 1 of them which I didn't find so friendly but it wasn't a big deal. The service they give among all is very good. You can buy beer, snacks, sandwiches and more at any time. There is a Coop nearby and an Italian restaurant. Breakfast is included and is appreciated for the price of the stay. The rooms are very clean, as well as the bathrooms, and the beds are comfortable.

Depot 195 - Hostel Winterthur

Winterthur

Depot 195 occupies a renovated brick building in a historic factory site in the centre of Winterthur, 500 metres from the train station. It offers a snack bar and free WiFi access.

The individually decorated rooms at Depot 195 - Hostel Winterthur come with a private bathroom. The dormitory rooms have access to shared bathrooms. I really liked the attitude of the stuff and systematic approach. Biggest kitchen I've seen yet, what really helped out and made me feel like a real human being. In the kitchen I had an access to frying oil and some leftovers from previous stays (like grated cheese and toasts), so I didn't need to buy butter or oil to just use a shot of it. The location was beautiful and just a few minutes from train station. Stuff took care of my belongings while I was already checked out and later allowed to take me a shower, what was very pleasant and helpful.
