Youth Hostel Crans-Montana

Perched on a sun-soaked plateau in Crans-Montana, this youth hostel sits minutes from the Crans‑Cry d'Er gondola and Casino de Crans‑Montana. Family-friendly and pet-friendly hostel lodging with easy access to Patinoire Ycoor, the Golf Club Crans‑sur‑Sierre and nearby hiking and ski lifts.

Housed in the converted Bella Lui sanatorium, the place floods with light thanks to tall windows and large glass doors that open onto balconies and three sun terraces. The 54 guestrooms are simple and functional — desks, showers, cribs on request and restored original furniture give the spot a characterful, cozy vibe.

Take in alpine views from a rooftop terrace and garden, or relax in the arcade/game room after a day on the slopes. Ski storage, table tennis, playrooms for kids and tour/ticket assistance make it easy to get outside — wake up to Valais Alps mornings and hit the trails or lifts.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Multilingual staff, luggage storage and an elevator (accessible for guests with disabilities) are on site, and self parking is available for a fee.

An on‑site restaurant serves local flavors, plus a snack bar/deli and bar/lounge for quick bites and après-ski drinks. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:00–10:00 AM to fuel your mountain adventures.
