- Hanno (9/5): -
- Stefano (9/5): - Everything good
- Karel (10/5): Formidable - L’accueil du personnel avec une gentillesse et orienté vers des solutions. L’emplacement et le cadre est formidable. C’est idéal pour faire du ski de fond ou de la randonnée ou juste relaxer exemple en train!
Il y a tout pour votre confort, même si vous êtes seule.
Merci à toute l’équipe!

- raffaella (9/5): - Tutto Niente
- Susana (9/5): - La ubicació, el menjar, és net i confortable.
- Françoise (6/5): Parfait pour partir randonner dès son arrivée - Bien situé à proximité de la gare et a 12 mns à pied du centre de pontresina. Ambiance agréable. Accueil plutôt froid et minimal. Petit déjeuner correct sans plus. Difficile de manger sur place en dehors de leur restaurant car la salle commune manque de la plupart du matériel ce qui est surprenant pour une auberge de jeunesse.
- Cátia (7/5): -
- Oliver (7/5): -
- Samira Leonie (7/5): Sonst sehr freundlich und cool - Frühstück und nähe zum bahnhof Es gab keine kurze erklärung wo was ist im hstel selbst
- Françoise (8/5): Une auberge de jeunesse sous équipée très bien située - Situation idéale a 2 pas de la gare. Très propre. Espaces communs spacieux. équipements quasi inexistants dans l espace commun: surprenant pour une auberge de jeunesse.( Pas de couverts, pas de verres, pas d assiettes, une bouilloire mais pas de point d' eau, pas de distributeur de boissons chaudes). Petit déjeuner correct sans plus.
- Sonia (7/5): - Le petit déjeuner était très complet. Le personnel est agréable. La proximité de la gare. Des sèches cheveux pourraient être mis à disposition dans les salles communes. Il ne me semble pas en avoir vu.

- Megan (9/5): An affordable, well catered and very convinent setting for cross country skiing in Pontresina. - Very close to train station - across the road with ski hire and lockers in basement.
Great meals, but with late arrival almost missed end of dinner at 19.30. As I can struggle with ladders due to knee issues, the team had put a message onto a bed for me but ignored by fellow guest. She left the next day and I was able to claim the lower bunk.
- Orestis Papapetrou (9/5): Great - Great location. Close to St moritz as thats where i was going during my 2 days trip. Comfortable bed, friendly staff and the breakfast was also good

Sehr gute lage fpr langlauf.seehr zentral beim Bahnhof.
Wenn rest. Geöffnet ist kann man den ganzen tag warm essen. Aufenthaltsraum,fernsehraum seehhr unbequem.grosser harter holztisch und Bank mit rillen die man im sitzen spürt.sofas viel zu nieder und unbequem.keine Liebe im Detail rundum.
Doppelzimmer ist leider in einem viererzimmer,sehr eng nicht genütlich für den preis.der mitgluederbeitrag wurde leider nicht angerechnet da wir Booking gebucht haben.zu teuer,für das es noch vorsaison war...
- Britta (8/5): Einfach topp, der Spa in Pontresina ist ebenfalls ein Tipp für müde Muskeln - Super einfach und perfekt für alles was man zum Skilaufen oder besonders Langlaufen benötigt. So schön, dass man es besser gar nicht weiterempfehlen sollte, sonst ist es für den nächsten eigenen Urlaub bestimmt ausgebucht.
- Ursula (10/5): Erholsames Wochenende in einer sehr gut geführten Jugendherberge. - Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber, besonders auch die sanitären Anlagen. Frühstück und Abendessen waren top. Die Lage ist super!! —-

- Erika (7/5): -
- Kurt (7/5): Gut gelegene preiswerte Unterkunft mit reichhaltigem Frühstück - Gut beim Bahnhof gelegene Unterkunft.
Reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet.
Einfaches Check-in auch nach 21 Uhr. Achtung: Türe schließt um 23 Uhr. Die Nachtruhe wurde nicht eingehalten. Am Morgen war die Rezeption nicht wie geplant um 7.30 Uhr besetzt.
- Marilia (8/5): -

- Nicolò (5/5): - Pulito, comodo ed economico per muoversi in Engadina. La cena è la colazione self service erano soddisfacenti Pochi servizi e a caro prezzo. Per bere una camomilla dopo cena 3,5 chf, non hanno una lavanderia interna, mi è stato riferito che ci vogliono 48 ore (?). I letti sono abbastanza scomodi
- Sanja (9/5): -
- Arpat (9/5): Superb -
- Brealey (9/5): A budget friendly way to stay in this stunning area. We would stay here again. - Perfect location opposite the station and a bus stop. We had a good sized room with a washbasin. The shared bathroom was nearby. We opted for packed lunches and dinner each evening- these were good value and filling. The staff were friendly and helpful. Easy to travel around the area using the excellent local transport and as a bonus the hostel gives you a free travel pass which includes cable cars etc. A great area for hiking and for enjoying the wildflowers.
- Fabio (7/5): Great stay close to the train station and the city center - Cleanliness, quiet rooms, access and location Limited flexibility for check in
- Hui (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and good value None
- Tiwari (10/5): Exceptional - Conveniently located from every spot worth visiting in Pontresina. Good, clean, large washrooms. Very tidy rooms. The stay did not disappoint at all!
- Sarah (8/5): Very good - Location was perfect! It is in the opposite of the train station. Bedroom was comfortable and has lockers (you'll need CHF 2 as a deposit). Bathroom and toilets are clean. Breakfasts offers lots of option. All good.
- Loewen (8/5): Very good - The breakfast was excellent. When we checked in, nobody let us know the situation about the Wi-Fi. We found out the next morning that it’s very complicated and we never were able to access the service because the reception desk closed down fairly early in the evening. That should really be improved ASAP. The rest of the experience was very fine.
- Neyret (8/5): Very good -
- Jane (10/5): - Wonderful, welcoming, clean place to stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Ótima localização - Atendimento ótimo, todos muito simpáticos. Café da manhã delicioso, nota 10. Localização muito boa, em frente à estação de trem, bem fácil ir pras cidades do lado. Porém, muito barulho nos quartos do andar de cima após às 22h.
- Shilpi (8/5): Very good -
- Rod (10/5): Great value. - Great location right next to the train station, clear throughout, comfortable and spacious public areas, excellent breakfast and dinner. All good.

- CEO - Gerente // Lenin (10/5): - Me encanto volveria con los ojos cerrados
- Sérgio (8/5): It was ok… - The location is perfect and very nearby St. Moritz. In a bad luck week, we got awful people in the hostel at the same time we’ve been there. Very unpleasant, bad educated and dirty people. The refrigerator was disgusting.
- Alicia (9/5): Superb -
- Colin (9/5): Superb -
- Susan (10/5): A wonderful place to stay . - Friendly staff, excellent value dinners and a comprehensive included breakfast.,close to the railway station and a short walk to the centre. They kindly looked after our luggage for us while we went hiking for 12 days.
- Kim (9/5): Superb - Delicious dinner (add on for 20 chf per person/night) but excellent value. Good assortment of breakfast items as well.
Rooms were nice and clean
- Lanette (7/5): Good -
- Jacqueline (8/5): We had a good time at a very nice hostel. - Location across from train station was great. Evening meal was best priced meal on our trip and food was good. Shared Bathrooms were sparking clean. Friendly, helpful staff. The red wine was not very good per my husband.

- Susan (10/5): A wonderful place to stay in Pontresina. - Great location next to the station. Excellent dinners and breakfasts. Very good value. The hostel was extremely clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. I needed to find a doctor on a Sunday and the staff rang around to find a doctor for me to see . The kitchen staff were also friendly and generous with servings.

- Laura (9/5): Superb -
- Leslie (10/5): - The hostel is located near the train station. Staff are friendly and hostel food was delicious. Beautiful area with many different options for hiking. Facilities are clean.
- Edward (6/5): - This was our first stay at a Hostel. I will say Patric was outstanding. He went over and above to be helpful and friendly. Some of the rules were not user friendly. We needed to catch a train at 1500 hours. we were told needed to exit the property by 1100.. Seems to me when the weather is very cold, the property could at least supply a location to mind bags but no, get out. The accomodations are clean but very basic. Other than Patric we would never book here again. .
