This is one of the safest hostels I’ve ever stayed in anywhere. Locker storage is abundant with large lockers outside every room. Key entry into rooms and bathrooms is very efficient. Quick walk away from the lake and many restaurants and bars.
Excellent breakfast I didn't really like that I have to make my own bed as well as remove the linen and put it in the bin but overall it was pretty good
This hostel was amazing! One of the best I have stayed id. The new room key opens all doors: locker in room, bathroom, bedroom, entrance- all in one- loved it! The location is perfect. Staff is super friendly. Beds and bathroom are super clean and comfy.

Great for a short stay, nice amenities, clean. Only downside is the hallways were a bit loud at night.

Cannot rate my experience highly enough. Superb breakfast and helpful friendly staff too
This was a wonderful place to stay if you are a solo traveler! It has clean rooms, a big free breakfast, and many of the best places in Geneva are within walking distance. The front desk staff are also friendly and very helpful!

very good customer service rooms were beat and clean well mai tained
Stayed here solo for 2 nights whilst travelling Switzerland. It’s a 5 minute walk to the lake but maybe 20 to the more central part. Location was fab 5 minute walk to bus stop. Kitchen/toilets were great & clean. Bedrooms were outdated but for the price especially including breakfast can’t complain.
I was totally impressed with the Geneva Hostel. My first stay in this setting and I will definitely recommend this place to anyone needing a clean, hospitable, safe place to stay.
A very nice hostel a stonethrow away from the Geneva Lake. Very helpful staff members, very nice interior, with a wonderful breakfast buffett to start the day strong.
