Only one men’s toilet in the ground floor. Bunk beds were a bit noisy and also walls were very thin so you could hear people on the corridors etc. It’s a youth hostel but I was not expecting to see so many kids there. Like lots of families with children.

Amazing location in front of the lake and views to the mountains. The walk from the station is very nice as you walk by the lake and it takes around 10-15minutes. I was impressed by the breakfast as it was very complete and had options for lactose intolerance people and excellent coffee machine available with vegan milk too. It was one of the highlights of the hostel.

The larger rooms aren't private, more like a big dorm for school camp. It would be nice if there was a curtain divider or something as otherwise you are sleeping 10cm away from someone you may not know.

I loved the location of this hostel- the lake is truly beautiful to wake up to each morning. The breakfast included is a real great benefit to start your hiking day. The place was clean and tidy which was also great.

I wish there was little consideration to people who wanted to be together!!!

The staff were very friendly and helpful and welcoming, also Sara was a good resource as she was knowledgeable. I should mention Magdalena, what a delightful smile.

Overall great value and pleasant stay, but my room had 14 beds all on the floor so it kind of felt like a summer camp, especially when people would noisily come back in the room late at night. Also very family friendly, but this meant that there were many younger kids running around which at times felt hectic. Minor complaints from an otherwise wonderful stay.

Great hostel in beautiful location with very great staff, especially Sarah, who was welcoming, kind, and extremely friendly. Very nice hostel all around, with delicious breakfast included, and a nice outside area to enjoy magnificent views.

The quadruple room was very very small. There was hardly any place to move. Male shower room and toilets were on another floor which was a little inconvenient during night.

Great location and view of the lake. Breakfast was good. Staff helped with storing our luggage. Adequate no of showers. Everything was clean and tidy.

1. Checkin is really late 17h. 2. There is no cooking facility but has a kitchen for use.

Just infront of the lake. Had a nice balcony view. I had the whole dormitory to myself and loved it. Beautiful garden and relaxing atmosphere. Staffs are amazing and breakfast was plentiful.

A bit of snoring from other guests, they should not be able to stay at a hostel if you are loud when sleeping.

Breakfast was good!

Stayed in August 2023

It was minor but the shared kitchenette is very basic. Just a microwave, kettle and fridge - but better than nothing.

Beautiful place, beautiful people. The hostel was quite busy while I was there and hosts all types of people from solo travellers to large school groups, but I enjoyed the diversity and community. It's close to the train station, it's perfectly clean, the breakfast was amazing and the staff are wonderful people.

The great location besides the lake

The staff was rude most of the times. Looked like they are not enjoying their work. Whenever there was a issue we got a standard answer that "we are just 2 people managing this etc." A common kitchen can't be called a Kitchen. It just has one electric kettle, one microwave and a small ~100 ltr refrigerator. They don't have cook top or utensils to cook.

Location of the hostel is awesome. It's on the banks of lake Brienz and 10 mins walk from Brienz Railway Station.

Bed sizes were so small that even small guys couldn't fit. There was a bed border edge line which could be wider)

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Brienz Youth Hostel with three of my friends, and I must say that our experience was nothing short of excellent. First and foremost, the staff at Brienz Youth Hostel deserve special mention. They were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests we had. Their helpfulness and genuine interest in ensuring our stay was comfortable truly made a difference. The hostel itself exceeded our expectations in every way. The rooms were clean, and well-maintained, providing us with a comfortable place to rest after a long day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. The beds were comfortable, the common areas were also impressive and cozy offering a great space to relax, socialize, and meet other travelers. One of the highlights of our stay was the breathtaking view from the hostel's terrace. Overlooking the stunning Lake Brienz and surrounded by picturesque mountains, it provided the perfect backdrop for enjoying our morning coffee or simply soaking in the tranquility of the area. We left with unforgettable memories and a desire to return in the future. Thank you to everyone at Brienz Youth Hostel for making our stay truly memorable! Best regards,
