Travelled with family
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The property was clean and very basic. Impressed by the space.A lot to be desired with fixtures and fittings especially bed and bedding. Bedding sheet had holes and thin, no matress protector. Quilt covers washed out colour with stains. Truly awful. There was a sofa which l slept on fully clothed. Inexpensive problems to fix. Such as replacing furniture with upgrades,rather than the flimsy clothing rail and wooden slatted boxes serving as bed side tables. Minor shower repair needed too. Could be a great place with these changes.

Viva Chur
Viva Chur was a low cost stay. It is opposite night clubs and a busy road, but that was not a problem on the night we stayed. However, women may feel a little intimidated by the area. The bedding was not comfortable. The sheets had a hole in them and the pillows were very poor. There was no catering and the tea/coffee room was locked in the evening and morning, so no chance of anything other than tap water. It was near the old town, which was good and a 10 minute walk from the railway and bus station. The room was OK, the bathroom warm and clean. Other than the low cost the Hostel has little appeal

Spacious & clean hostel in central Chur
The hostel was in a good location - walkable to the train station. Reception was closed when we arrived but we were able to call and obtain the code to enter. It had been emailed to us but was automatically sent to spam. The room was spacious and clean as well as the bathroom. The kitchen facilities are poor - there's no sink. It seems to also function as a night club but wasn't open during our stay (Monday night in February) - noise cancelling headphones are provided for each bed. During our stay, the hostel and neighborhood were very quiet.

walkable from train station like 10 mins. not really easy to spot i would say. it’s actually a hostel and a club. oh goodness it was noisy at night. i was awaken by it. they did provide 2 nos of headphones which i do not know if i should compliment. cos honestly why would i sleep with one. there’s a few more bars/clubs nearby. not my kinda place. won’t recommend for those with family.

The hottest club in town.
The room was clean and comfortable, by European standards. The shared bathrooms and showers were immaculate. The host was friendly and helpful. This hostel is above the hottest club in town, for young people who want loud dance music with a line up to get in all night. Hostel guests enter through a seperate door and get noise cancelling headphones to sleep with.

Large room surrounded by heavy and noisy music
The Hostel is located in an old building with modern interior but without lift. The reception staff was very helpful and took my heavy luggage to my room on 2nd floor. It is away from main train station but close to a local train stop (Stadt Chur) and a bus stop (Malteser) which may transit to main train station. The hostel is surrounded by numbers of bars which play very heavy and noisy music until early next morning. The room and the toilet are very large but neither electric fan nor TV is provided.
