HI Ash123,

Did you check myswissalps.com/lucern e/hotels? You’ll find a list of hotels we personally recommend there. Quite some of them are located centrally, in the town center and within walking distance of the railway station. Please let us know in case you can’t find suitable accommodation there. Your budget is CHF 200 per night for 2 adults, right?

Hi There

We are staying in the same area and there are 4 adults we have booked the YHA in Montreux but there is also a YHA in Lausanne but having read previous posts it appears that the one in Lausanne is a little more difficult to get to

For the 4 of us in a 4 bedded room

Quadruple Room with Shared Bathroom CHF 188 swiss francs (£155) for one night mid june next year- YHA Montreux

Quadruple Room with Shared Bathroom CHF 206.40 ( £170) for one night mid june again

Breakfast is included with both booking and you can get evening meal and order packed lunches from them as well.

This in itself is a nice way to learn about the area and met many different people and cultures if you choose too. Also from past experience the people on reception are very willing to help with iteneries and provide maps etc.

Hope this helps – PS you can get a discount is you join the YHA as well and get many other discounts as well

This might be an option you could consider

Hi twiggy321,

Montreux and Lausanne are not near Lucerne, but I’m sure your suggestions will be useful for someone else. So thanks! There is a youth hostel in Lucerne as well.
