A very nice hostel, especially with a super friendly and courteous staff. There are many different options for activities offered by the youth hostel and which I can also recommend.If you want to visit Biedenkopf, then I can only recommend the youth hostel as accommodation.I had a great stay and thank you to the amazing staff!🥰

The team is super nice and very helpful and they helped us with any questions we had. There are many opportunities to stay indoors even when it rains (table tennis, billiards, fireplace room, various games, table football)

So the people here are all sweethearts. You feel very comfortable and there is a lively atmosphere in the house. There is also a program for the little ones. Whether it's a fire show or archery, there's something for everyone here.

Beautifully designed outdoor area, food is great too. There were two large groups - it was well managed!Quietly located but connected by train, it's almost right in front of the doorThank you for the great time!!

We were able to spend several days here as a family.In recent years we have mostly spent our holidays in youth hostels and found this in Biedenkopf particularly great:- large play area, a little more quiet downstairs, clearly visible upstairs or accessible from the dining area - very practical:) if the parents needed longer than the children- delicious food- Very accommodating, good service- great activities on offer, the night games and archery were particularly fun for the children- Creative studio with extensive material- Outdoor area with various options, e.g. the slackline- quiet but very well connected. Beautiful walking path starts right next doorThank you for this great time!!! We'd love to come back!

There are, among other things, two very great women working there that I know personally and appreciate very much. Great importance is placed on looking after the guests. Through further training of individual employees, the offering for holiday games, among other things, is continually being expanded. 💪👍👍

The youth hostel is in a great location and offers a lot of options for the whole family. The only thing missing are barrier-free rooms and toilets!

It was another very nice weekend with a well-organized hostel management team, thank you😊It's just a shame that there is no room suitable for disabled people. So we had to hold an online lecture with our lecturer, who was in a wheelchair. We hope that a renovation can perhaps be carried out in the near future so that we can also hold this type of event at your place later. We, the Noonan Children e. V. Germany, we feel comfortable with you and would not like to have to move to another hostel because of it.Best regards and see you next year!Michael

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We spent a wonderful family weekend with our club at the Biedenkopf youth hostel. The childcare provided by the committed, very friendly and patient team was excellent, which meant we were able to exchange ideas in peace and follow the lecture undisturbed.The outdoor area has improved significantly over the last year. Our children were able to let their creativity run wild and had a lot of fun.An important point: There is no disabled toilet. Unfortunately, our lecturer could only take part via Zoom. We hope that this will be taken into account soon in order to make the youth hostel even more inclusive.Thank you for the lovely weekend! We'd love to come back next year.

My stay at DJH for a week was absolutely amazing, the one and only hostel I've stayed that felt like family. I have special dietary needs as I am allergic to milk and lactose. Other hostels I stayed as part of a teaching group simply ordered me to register as having special requests again and again, often being angry while saying so, which was quite tiresome. Not so with Brita and the team! Their system was clear and open, they were delighted to provide for me, and always asked me for feedback on the wonderful meals they provided. I have to say it did feel more like being in a hotel at times! I'll never forget the time they came out with apple tart because it was an ice cream day and my manager wanted some afterwards, it looked so good! My laundry was dealt with swiftly and dried in super fast time. Everyone was friendly right down to the cleaners and maintenance staff. I can't say enough good things about this hostel. The love of what Brita and the team do is present in every task they carry out. Hope to see you all again next year!

I have stayed at the place for 7 weeks and my experience has been amazing. The staff members (Brita, Francis, etc.) have been incredibly kind and helpful the whole time. The room was very nice and the views from the window were very beautiful.Sure, here's a continuation of your review. The housekeeping team did an excellent job of keeping everything clean and tidy. I appreciated the attention to detail, such as the fresh towels and toiletries replenished regularly. I want to thank everyone who worked at the hotel for making the stay a great and fun experiences. Bis bald! 😊
