Lovely location up on the mountain in Ristis. Beautiful nature and lots of areas for kids to play. The lodge is quite modern and rooms and beds really comfortable and clean. We slept really well! We had to share showers / bathrooms and at times had to wait but it was not a big problem. Quality of the showers was excellent. The food was superb and service great too, thank you!

This was a one night stay for our 6-membered family in room with 6 beds with shared bathroom and we were a little worried if this accomodation would be comfortable enough for us to rest. In the end it turned out beyond our expectations - the beds are solid and large enough, there are three huge and clean shared toilettes/bathrooms and there is also clean and equipped small kitchen and dining room for sharing, so we made a breakfast in the morning. The house is very nice and quite, in the beatiful and peaceful surrounding (definitely worth of visiting for more than one day) and the hosts are very kind.

The directions on how to drive to the house by car were very clear and helpful. Also necessary since Google Maps failed me here. I arrived very tired, so I enjoyed the simplicity of arriving, finding my room, putting the sheets on the bed, then simply and immediately rest.

All hostels in Engelberg

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.

Great location close to Titlis gondola. Hostel itself has parking, games/table tennis/outside area/balcony. Clean beds and washrooms, quiet in summer but well setup with breakfast and optional dinner. Really enjoyed my stay.
