It would have been good to know that this place is unstaffed until 3pm on a Sunday. We arrived hoping to deposit our bags and go to look at Zurich but we were unable to. From a security point of view this is not good as anyone could just walk into the hostel, break down a door and steal bags.
I would very much NOT recommend Hostel Suisse. It is very far away from pretty much everything, the rooms are drab and expensive, and there are basically no amenities (Internet, breakfast, etc.). It's in a rather depressing area, so unless you have transportation or mind a 20 minute busride to get to anything everyday, find another place.

Hostel is very expensive particularly since it does not have kitchen facilities. There is no place to lock up your valuables but there is only 2 people in a room, so i quess security is dependent on how much you trust your room mate! It is not in town, its a 10-15 bus ride! I think there is a cheaper option that is just as far from town! but staff were quite nice and the room itself is very good, with a desk and plenty of space. there is also free wifi which was great.

It would have been nice if the hostel offers breakfast as the food in Zurich is very expensive! The internet was a great deal and the rooms were nice.

I would actually recommend this hostel even tho8ugh my ratings for it are not that great. It is a really nice place to stay in Zurich, and even though it is on the higher end of the prices for hostels, it is a great price for Zurich. I stayed in a 2-bed mixed dorm,but actually ended up being by myself, because it was not packed and they gave me the room. The room was a normal room, but very bright, quiet, new sheets, clean, etc. The hostel itself is really far from the city centre, but get yourself an all-day pass for under 5 Euros and you will be fine! I didn't really see anyone in the hostel, just heard a couple of girls on my floor. SO I would not say it was fun or easy to meet people, compared to other places. But it is a great place to stay to relax and visit the city. P.S. Zurich is extremely expensive, so make sure you stay for a short time, or budget extra money!
