Amazing location! Nothing was really open in Gimmelwald because we were there at the end of the season. There is a shared kitchen available if you bring your own food. There was breakfast available with bread fresh from the oven. Beds and bathrooms were very clean by hostel standards. There were a lot of other young people from the US and Europe there, but some older folks as well. Had a very fun evening hanging out with the other travelers. Would definitely stay there again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### JOUNGWOO Jul 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### JOUNGWOO Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [SandmanHotels Hotels in Salmon Arm](https://www.expedia.ca/Salmon-Arm-Hotels-Sandman-Hotels.0-0-d6138741--bSandmanHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cabin Rentals Big Bear Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Cabins.d6919-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Casino Hotels in Charlevoix](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Charlevoix-Casino-Hotel.0-0-d6058003-tCasinoHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Florida Keys](https://www.expedia.ca/Florida-Keys-Hotels.d6023765.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Downtown Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Montreal-Montreal-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n6058201-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Cornwall](https://www.expedia.ca/Cornwall-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d10558-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Sherbourne Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Sherbourne-Station-Hotels.d6212457.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [LGBT Friendly Hotels in Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-LGBT-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d178288-tLGBTFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Candlewood Suites West Edmonton - Mall Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Candlewood-Suites-West-Edmonton-Mall-Area.h13351742.Hotel-Information) > > [Bvlgari Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Bulgari-Hotel-London.h4922121.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Bingemans](https://www.expedia.ca/Bingemans-Hotels.0-l6291229-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Rockport](https://www.expedia.ca/Rockport-Hotels.d6288968.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Hamilton (YHM) to Québec City (YQB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhm/yqb/hamilton-to-quebec) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to TYO-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tyo/toronto-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sgn/vancouver-to-ho-chi-minh-city) > > [Flights from Bangor (BGR) to North Charleston (CHS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bgr/chs/bangor-to-charleston) > > [Flights from North Syracuse (SYR) to San Francisco (SFO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/syr/sfo/syracuse-to-san-francisco) > > [Flights from Kamloops (YKA) to New York (JFK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yka/jfk/kamloops-to-new-york) > > [Air Canada Toronto (YYZ) to Calgary (YYC) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pearson-intl-to-calgary-intl/ac/yyz/yyc) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Konavle (DBV)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/dbv/toronto-to-dubrovnik) > > [Flights from Ahmedabad (AMD) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/amd/yul/ahmedabad-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Regina (YQR) to Cassidy (YCD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/ycd/regina-to-nanaimo) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Brussels (BRU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/bru/calgary-to-brussels) ### Activities ### Packages > [Iceland Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Iceland.d79.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General
