Amazing place. Nice, quiet, and modern rooms, good facilities. We ended up spending a lot of time at the actual hotel rather than going to our planned activity, just because it was so nice hanging out there. If you don't mind the location, then I can't imagine finding a better place to stay in Jyväskylä.

Offering ski-in, ski-out access to Laajavuori Ski Centre, this hostel is 8 minutes’ drive from central Jyväskylä. It offers free WiFi, brightly decorated guest rooms, along with a restaurant and free on-site parking.

Rooms are clean and comfy. Just perfect stop for a family heading from north to south. We didn't use the sauna or showers as we visited the spa nearby.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Super clean, quiet, much more like being in a house environment than a hostel because you take off your shoes and they expect a level of caretaking of the space, which is nice. Very well equipped kitchen with staples you can use, good private showers, nicely decorated. Location was great for where I was working, around the university, but it's a little more of a hike to the city centre than some other places. Beds and linens clean and comfy. Check in easy with a code.

    This is among the top 5 hostels I've stayed in anywhere in the world and I've travelled on 6 continents. An absolute gem for a reasonable price. Clean, tidy, quiet, safe, comfortable, has character, takes sustainability seriously; there's nothing lacking!

    The location was great! It was nice that there were disposable cups and coffee in the room. The price was quite fair but could be even cheaper
