“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.

There were bunk beds. Luckily for my husband and i, we were able to have the 2 lower ones. The top bunks would have been dangerous for us. The breakfast was delicious The showers were excellent

“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.

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.

Straightforward youth hostel room with shared bathrooms. All very clean and as one would expect. Great breakfast in the morning and very close to the railway station. We were able to store our luggage free of charge on the day we left in a locker.
