This hostel was a fun place to stay while visiting Chur. They’ve done an excellent job renovating the old prison and everything is very new. It was a quirky stay. The rooms are pretty small, but that’s to be expected, they used to be jail cells.

Unusual hostel - a converted prison with the original prison doors made it a bit of a different experience! The hostel was really clean with all the facilities you need (kitchen, common rooms, wi-fi, etc.). Would have been useful to have some paper towels in the dorm toilet (as no towels provided, fortunately soap was provided). The hostel wasn't far from the train station about a 10 minute walk - but it wasn't easy to find, maybe a couple of signs need to be added in the streets! Loved that it was in Chur old town.

Do not stay here if you want a decent night sleep
Stayed for 3 nights only managed a decent night sleep on the last night. The hostel is not staffed at night so large groups free to make noise until the early hours of the morning. According to the unsympathetic staff we should expect this if we book a hostel! Well sorry for in excess of £100 a night this is unacceptable.

Reception staffs are really nice! Especially, a woman who accepted for me, I think she is the best. Sooo nice smile and kind, she made good atmosphere to ask naturally. I had a lot of trips, but I like her the most as a receptionist (I hope she will read this review.) Any way, thank you!
