Summary of reviews
Luzern Youth Hostel is situated slightly outside Lucerne's city center, approximately 2 kilometers away. Though this distance is highlighted by some guests, the availability of a complimentary bus pass ensures convenient and quick access to the city via frequent bus services. The tranquil surroundings near Lake Rotsee offer a peaceful retreat, complemented by nearby amenities such as supermarkets and shops. Guests who enjoy walking can reach the city center in about 20-30 minutes, taking in the scenic environment along the way.
The hostel provides a highly praised breakfast, featuring a generous and diverse buffet that includes a variety of breads, cheeses, salamis, jams, muesli and fresh fruits. It's highlighted that the breakfast is included in the room price, making it a great value for budget travelers. However, some guests noted the limited vegan options and basic choices for those with specific dietary needs.
Dinner at the hostel is available for reservation and is considered nutritious and filling, an advantage for those returning late from exploring Lucerne. Nonetheless, the dining area could benefit from better ventilation and there is no provision for self-catering with no facilities for cooking, warming meals or food storage.
Room reviews are mixed; while cleanliness is consistently praised, highlighting well-maintained bathrooms and fresh linens, some guests find the rooms to be small, lacking proper ventilation and air conditioning, making them uncomfortably warm. Dormitories are often critiqued for being crowded and a bit outdated, though private rooms offer a more comfortable and quiet experience. The hostel’s public and private rooms show signs of aging and could benefit from some updates and better lighting.
The staff at Luzern Youth Hostel are a standout, frequently praised for their friendliness, helpful nature and multilingual abilities. Their welcoming and supportive approach significantly enhances the guest experience, even going so far as to provide free bus tickets upon check-in.
WiFi service at the hostel is generally good with reliable access particularly in common areas. Guests also appreciate the added value of city-wide free WiFi access, although a few noted that connectivity in some rooms could be inconsistent.
Parking options are generally seen as convenient with various on-site and nearby choices. Some guests noted the additional costs associated with parking, yet many appreciated the relatively large parking lot by Swiss standards and reasonable rates.
The beds receive mixed reviews with some guests finding them comfortable and appreciating the presence of lights and outlets near the beds. However, others described the beds as narrow with thin mattresses and minimal bedding that sometimes smelled musty. The necessity to set up the beds upon arrival and limited power sockets were also points of critique.
In conclusion, Luzern Youth Hostel offers budget-friendly accommodations with strong positives in location convenience, breakfast quality, cleanliness and excellent staff service. While there are areas for improvement, particularly in room comfort and dining facilities, it remains a practical choice for travelers exploring Lucerne.
