Annecy Hostel

Only stayed for one night, but loved this little hostel. Everyone was very friendly and coming together felt really natural because the place is well set-up for that. My bed had an outlet and a good amount of storage, and there are lockers in the rooms (bring your lock). Bathrooms were fine, never waited and the shower was attached to the room. :)

Cute little hostel in a convenient location, but the attached bar is the only downside - loud noise and lights until pretty late at night, and the hostel rooms are just a few feet above it all. Also, allowing kids at the bar after 8 pm just seems like a bad call, makes for extra noise. Otherwise, the staff was super friendly and helpful. Tons of amenities, a full, organized kitchen, and lots of deals with nearby businesses for discounts with hostel stayers.

Stayed here for 3 nights in a private 2 person room. Our room had it's own toilet, sink and shower, a closet, a desk, a clothing rack, AND a private covered balcony! The room and bathroom were very clean. The hostel has laundry, a kitchen and a connected outdoor bar that is open to the public. Staying at the hostel gets you discount at the bar, which also serves food, but I never made it to the bar because it closes at 10PM. Seemed like people had fun there though! The nice part about it closing at 10PM is that hostel guests can sleep without a ton of noise. The kitchen was useful - with a refrigerator that has separate spots for each room - but was not kept very clean. The staff was not overly friendly but not mean either. Make sure to pay the full price of your room ahead of time if you are checking out early for a flight, as the counter is not open early in the morning. You can buy a towel for a few euros. Good price for a private room in a place with only a few hostels! Staying at the hostel gives you a 10% discount on Monte Medio outdoor excursions, and there were a lot of suggestions on the walls of things to do around town. Something to note is that the WiFi does NOT work in the rooms, only in the common areas.

I and my friend had a one night stop in this nice hostel on the last days of June. About 20 minutes walking form the train station and 10 minutes to the nearest old town's gates. The guy at the reception was really nice and spoke a perfect english, the hostel looked rad! It has a nice garden outside, with a bar working until late (cannot remember the closing time) and handmade chairs everywhere, perfect for chillin out. The room was very comfortable (room with 4 places) with a clean restroom on the corridor. Definitely a nice stay! If we hadn't to move for our travel we should surely stay there for a very long time, I miss it!

Location is 15min from train/bus station, local street is quite peaceful, back yard bar is very popular. Kitchen is ok, you have oven and microwave, hob, also big pots to cook pasta for large group. It's busy so it's provably not as clean as in your house. Our room was clean but shared toilet was out of paper in the morning, not good.

Decent hostel, the value is good, but the kitchen turns off its oven at 930pm. That, and other nit-picky rules about “not using the back patio” and “being whisper quite on the balcony after dusk” make this place only 2 stars. Like… it’s a hostel, have the people who run this place ever stayed at a hostel? I can’t use the kitchen when I come back from the bar? Give me a break. Besides the nice room, clean accommodations and decently nice front desk, I’d pay 20% more and just go to an Airbnb. This hostel is not like any hostel I’ve ever stayed in. It’s… lame

The location of the hostel is excellent, close to the lake, to the old part of the town and 15 minutes away, by foot, of the train station. The staff was SUPER friendly. My room and the commom areas were clean. A negative pont is the there isn't wifi in the bedrooms, only in the common area.||||Strongly recommend :)

Really loved this hostel (: very comfy and social. It feels the way every hostel should - it’s designed for people to come together, to cook and eat together, to drink together and hang out together. The service is great too. Would recommend!

No one answers the phone!!. The bathrooms need a good scrub with bleach. Lights are on timers and flash off and on continuously even when your not moving in the common areas. :/. Rooms are super cramped. Address is difficult to find beware. Spanish guy at front desk super pleasant location could be better. These hostel owners seem to be in it for the money, hire better staff from maids to front desk!
