About Us
Since its inception in 1932, the Geneva Youth Hostel Association (AGAJ) has been committed to a mission of hospitality and cultural exchange. Through the Geneva Hostel, located in the historic and iconic Rothschild buildings and its 1986 annex, we offer a variety of accommodations, supported by the city of Geneva. These places, dedicated to travelers of all backgrounds, facilitate access to Geneva's treasures, while providing a full range of services.
Our prime location is an invitation to discover Geneva, with its international institutions, museums, and the beauty of its lake. From free Wi-Fi to included breakfast, parking options, and our laundry facilities, every service is designed to enrich your experience.
Beyond accommodation, Geneva Hostel and AGAJ foster a deeper mission: to encourage cultural exchanges and promote accessible, enriching, and respectful tourism. Our commitment to sustainable development is reflected in ecological initiatives such as reducing our energy consumption, recycling, and raising ecological awareness. Staying with us means participating in a vision of travel that respects our planet and contributes to a better world.
Geneva Hostel is much more than just a place to stay; it is a convergence point where cultures and stories meet, fostering authentic encounters and shared experiences. We invite you to join us to experience Geneva in all its authenticity, in a setting that honors its past while looking towards a sustainable future.
