Selda's has a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Schaffhausen. Located around 49 km from Zoo Zurich, the hostel with free WiFi is also 50 km away from ETH Zurich. The property is non-smoking and is situated 48 km from Zurich Exhibition Hall.

Nicely furnished, comfortable hostel in a very convenient location. Wasnt fully booked, so it was relatively quiet. I checked in online but I still needed some help when I arrived around 9pm, so I called one of the phone numbers and a very nice staff member came to assist me immediately.

The Hotel Zak is located right in the car-free centre, 3 minutes' walk from the Schaffhausen Train Station. Free Wi-Fi is available in the the entire building.

It offers simply furnished rooms with shared bathrooms and flat-screen TVs. All rooms are reachable by elevator.

Good location in the Altstadt. We travel with kids and want the ability to buy groceries to eat. The studio has a fridge, kitchen sink and oven. We stayed here in 2018, on our return in 2023 the furniture had been updated.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Lovely large spacious room which had a terrace with a lovely view - Room 8. Great location and only 5 mins to the train station and a few supermarkets near by. A lovely Mexican restaurant underneath and we were given a free drink and an appetiser. The staff were all very nice and helpful.

    The staff was really helpful and full of empathy. I had a really long and difficult trip and arrived after 'hours'. Debora had kept dinner that I had ordered but by the time I arrived I just couldn't do with dinner. They didn't charge me with it the day after and were really nice with it. I also liked the fact that in a Youth Hostel not all were too young/old to be there.
