Barabas Luzern

A great stay!

Certainly a unique location, but not so much of a hostel. This is a hotel with some dorm rooms and the lack of social atmosphere reflects this. Bunk beds offer zero privacy, but you get what you pay for. There was a small kitchen. In a good location and about right on money (for Switzerland!). It’s alright, would stay again!

Absolutely loved it!! The staff were super helpful, was very clean, and in a great location

Second stay at Barabas, and I'm still a fan! The breakfast buffet does a lot of the work here, it's very good. Staff is helpful. Bathrooms are very good. Dormrooms were... okay. There's a sore lack of power sockets, and the lockers were a tad cramped. Here, the hostel's history as a prison persists. But overall, great stay again.

Points forts : emplacement (près de tout, facilement accessible à partir de la gare), lit confortable, sécuritaire, petit déjeuner super (belle variété aussi), le jardin (un peu caché mais super). Points négatifs : il a fait très chaud dans la chambre (malgré les fenêtres ouvertes en avril), une seule toilette pour 2 chambres de 6 personnes, manque d’équipements dans la cuisine (aucun bols/assiettes), il n’y a pas d’espace commun (sauf le jardin).

Great hostel! More of a family vibe and private rooms!

Schöne Unterkunft, cooles Konzept, perfekte Lage. Die Küche ist leider super klein und schlecht ausgestattet und es fehlten Gemeinschaftsräume.

Good hostel, excellent facilities and location. Not the most social but still enjoyable.

Awesome location right in middle of town. Rooms and bathroom well sized and very clean. Kitchen pretty basic but does the job, though no real common area to hang out in and not any real social vibe at all. Also got stuck with no European schuko plug outlets, only Swiss (type j) sockets for laptop charger.

Nicest bathrooms and towels are included, well equipped kitchen with all the supplies. Staff were extremely helpful when trying to figure out what to do and overall the space felt very clean and not like a prison at all

Nice staff. Great location. I would recommend staying here!

Such a cool and unique hostel. Not much social atmosphere but everything else was fantastic. Would recommend

Loveliest staff, great location and comfy rooms!

excelente lugar para hospedarse, personal amable, tal como se muestra en las fotos, cerca de todo.

Very close to old town which meant we could walk to the entire city from the hostel. The garden is a major plus but the common area inside is very small + kitchen as well. Bathroom floor was constantly wet from the showers too. Other than that the beds are great and made every morning by the cleaning staff.

He estado recorriendo Europa por 40 días y debo mencionar que este hostel ha sido el mejor. Las camas parece. Una nube un descanso total. El personal super amable. Limpieza impecable. Ubicación dentro del casco antiguo y a muy cerca de la estación de tren. 100% recomendable

Great location with an easy walk to everything. There are not good hangout places in the lobby/restaurant, but there is a chill garden area on the second floor no one seemed to know about. Is not a social hostel, but the people there for hiking can be more interesting.

Great location, clean, staff were helpful

This was my second time back at Barabas. Unbeatable location, comfortable beds and excellent shower facilities. Everything is reasonably new and good quality. This is not a party hostel which I like, so a good location to relax with good sleep and no stress. For a fee the Breakfast Buffet is of good quality and variety. Pefect to load up on before a big day out and about. Definitely will return.

Cool hostel in a great location. No kitchen aside from a kettle and microwave in a restaurant and no social aspect at all.
