What guests think

Lausanne Youth Hostel Jeunotel is described as a clean, simple place near the lake and public transport, with friendly staff and an included breakfast, offering generally good value for Lausanne despite basic, dated rooms and a noncentral location.

Beds are frequently reported as soft or uncomfortable, and lack of air conditioning can make rooms warm in summer. Cleanliness is usually praised, though occasional maintenance issues and limited housekeeping or amenities are noted, and breakfast quality ranges from good to average. Expect a straightforward, hostel-style stay with friendly service.

Towels are chargeable so remember to bring your own if you don't want to rent one. 24h front desk was a nice to have; knowing that help is there whenever you need it. super friendly staff :) would 10/10 come back here to stay.
