Opened in February 2017, Nyon Hostel is located in Nyon, 22 km from Geneva and 34 km from Lausanne. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar. Free WiFi is featured throughout the property.

Morzine is 44 km from Nyon Hostel, while Avoriaz is 47 km away. Geneva International Airport is 20 km from the property. Nothing to fault this hostel, seems purpose built and apparently quite new. Well laid-out. Beds basic but comfortable enough, with power points, light and privacy curtains. Comfy furnishings throughout the chill-zone, dining area, and terrace. The hammocks in the garden were a nice touch. The communal bathroom was immaculate for a hostel, and a single enclosed toilet in the dorm saved a journey with card keys in the night. Warden and staff all quite cheerful and friendly. Very affordable for Switzerland in the summer, compares well against other popular destinations.
