Those who value ultra-modern, yet attractively priced accommodation now have cause for celebration in Rapperswil-Jona. A modern hostel right on Lake Zurich awaits guests with the re-opening of the newly renovated youth hostel. The city of Rapperswil-Jona focused the redesign on renovating the rooms and refurbishing the common areas. For years, families, sports groups and clubs in particular have appreciated the youth hostel’s proximity to the lake and the numerous sports facilities.

After almost one and a half years of construction, the new Schaan-Vaduz Youth Hostel welcomes its first guests. The new hostel was built according to the highest sustainability standards and is expected to bring more than 10,000 overnight stays to the Principality each year. This is expected to open up new guest segments and boost tourism in Liechtenstein.

Laax now features yet another attraction: the Aua Grava indoor pool, including its new wellness and fitness area, and the new wellnessHostel3000 opened their doors to overnight guests on 18 December 2020. The team at the second wellness hostel in the Swiss Youth Hostels network passed its baptism of fire over the end-of-the-year holidays with flying colours. This new and innovative accommodation and leisure facility is an asset to both the community of Laax and the entire holiday region. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the indoor pool, including the wellness and fitness area, and the restaurant are expected to be open to external guests from March 2021.
