The hotel boasts an excellent location right by the Aare River and adjacent to Bern’s Old Town, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing or riverside strolls. As a youth hostel, the rooms are simply furnished but clean and functional. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, and they offered the option to reserve a parking space in advance. Since we were on a self-driving trip, parking had been a major concern, so having a reserved spot made our stay much more relaxed and enjoyable.

I had a lovely stay at the Jugenherberg in Bern.
It was clean, quiet, and conveniently located. The staff were professional and very friendly.

It wasn't worth the price and I wouldn't stay here again. Check in and check out were easy, but the beds in the dorms are first-come first-served and are not assigned, so it's difficult to accommodate disabilities. There is no privacy curtain, and the room lights are quite bright. You have to make your bed yourself, and the bathrooms are at the opposite end of the building. The bathrooms were absolutely filthy and the toilets full every time I went in. The lockers were nice because they were activated by your key card, but with the large windows, no bed curtains, and so many people in a room, there's no privacy to change unless you use the bathrooms, (which were not a good option). The mattresses are nothing more than a few inches of memory foam and you can feel the wood frame underneath. The staff did not mention that dinner in the cafeteria/restaurant has to be reserved in advance (they apparently don't have enough meals for the whole hotel), which was really upsetting to discover at dinnertime when it was pouring rain outside. The only saving grace is that breakfast is included and it's a full buffet, which is nice, but it's not worth the rest of the stay. I wouldn't recommend.

The woman who worked at the front desk at this hotel was awful. She was so cold and standoffish and completely unhelpful, so we had a negative opinion of the place from the start. Positives: The hotel is in a nice area by the river, and the park across the street is extremely fun and lively with a nice cafe. We really enjoyed hanging out and eating there while we did some people watching. Negatives: Apart from the staff, the biggest issue with the hotel was the room we were given. It was very hot, no A/C, and our room didn't have a window. Unable to sleep without any air circulation, we had to pay another $75 to upgrade our room. The new room we were given had a window, but the toilet ran very loudly all night long. It sounded like someone was constantly taking a shower. The whole experience just felt like a bad joke, and we were so glad to move on after our 1-night stay.

This hostel is family-friendly and it felt safe as a solo female traveller. There is a continental breakfast that is free. The staff was responsive to questions and multilingual if you are traveling internationally. The only downside is that parking is sparse since it is in the city's center. Other than that, it's a fantastic base since one can walk to restaurants/bars, shops, historical sites, and supermarkets.

Excellent place for a short visit to Bern.
The only disadvantage is a very poor wifi conection in the separate building, I was hunting the signal in my room! It is not difficult to improve it a bit:)

The breakfast starts from 6:30. It was really great. You can enjoy different type of hams and cheeses. There was a room for bicycle. So the hostel is friendly for cyclists as well.

The staff was friendly and the room had the essentials. I do believe that the main problem was with my roommates but it was not a huge deal breaker. I would prefer a better way to get through the shower and bathroom

We were very pleased with the stay our young ones had at the youth hostel. They stayed in a 2-bunk room with private bathroom. It had a small table with 2 stools, and separate shower and toilet rooms. The handbasin was in a separate space as well. They had a few problems with everything getting wet in the shower room but other than that everything was fine. They said that the breakfast was excellent with lots of healthy choices. They could walk to everything.
