Engelberg Youth Hostel

Engelberg

The youth hostel was very unfriendly. I tried for days to book a room and finally I got the message that they had given it to somebody else. There is no website you can book it on so you have to do it by mail and the respons is really bad. 

Now we have to cancel the trip.

Very unfriendly and cancelled my booking

All the hotels in Engelberg are more expensive than Engelberg Youth Hostel.
Everything is very clean so I really liked that. The owners are really friendly
You have to bring your own towels and you have to make up your own bed with sheets from them.
The breakfast is good, nothing special but good,
All the double rooms are separed beds , so as a couple you have to sleap separate. 

You have to pay more (6.00 CHF per person per night) if you don't have a Youth Hostel Membership Card. 
If you want to park you car in front of the hostel, you have to pay 3 CHF/a day
You don't have free wifi, you have to pay.

Cheapest way to visit Engelberg

The hostel is located a short walk from the train station. Location is okay and everything can easily be reached on foot. We walked to the Titlis cable car station, local COOP supermarket, etc. The hostel was quiet (we were there on the Easter weekend in 2014). There is no communal kitchen and no cooking is allowed in the room. We shared a toilet, but had our own shower and basin in our double room. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was your usual cereals, bread, cold cuts, cheese, boiled eggs, etc. In true hostel style, you are expected to sort your cutlery and crockery after breakfast.  
I stayed in a hotel on a previous trip to Engelberg and (obviously) a hotel is nicer, BUT as far as value for money is concerned, you would be hard-pressed to beat the Berghaus youth hostel. I would go back to this hostel and to Engelberg. I love Engelberg. You can't go wrong if you love mountains and beautiful scenery. Do not stay to short, because weather can be wet and cloudy, so you want to stay long enough to have a chance to catch a good, clear day to ascend Mount Titlis.
