Special Hostel/Homestay with a amazing view over the alps and the city, in a new renovated Villa up in the Hills of Lucerne, just 10 minutes from the main Train Station (Free bus Tickets availabel).

You will get a bed in a shared room with a amazing view over the alps and the city. We are 25/30 years young and also living in the house. There are up to 25 other guests in the mansion. Similar to a Luxury Hostel.

Its a place for young people who love to travel, work remotly and like socialising. If you just look for a bed to crash and want to be by yourself, this is probably not your favorit place.

I thought it was a nice place to stay, Ray was great and people were nice! The lack of locks or key pads for the rooms wasn’t super safe. Also the locker you are given is super tiny! It’s a little further out from the downtown and there are pretty strict rules when you stay here. But great kitchen and living spaces for everyone!

Lovely place to stay. Access to hiking and city center is convenient through the bus lines. Staff was very friendly. And quiet hours actually meant quiet hours in this place, which was great for sleeping.
