In spite of our idealistic aims, we aim for commercial activities that maximise our commercial viability and thereby ensure the continued existence of our organisation. We strive therefore to generate sufficient revenue, to maintain adequate liquidity, to build reserves and to foster a sound capital structure. For major investments such as new construction and renovation projects, however, we are reliant upon financial support from the public sector.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Revenue decreased to CHF 34.1 million (previous year CHF 46.6 million), due to the major restrictions on freedom of movement, the widespread lack of group, association and school trips and the partial closures of restaurants and wellness facilities for external guests imposed by the Swiss Confederation. The revenue per overnight stay increased to CHF 70.35 (previous year CHF 63.28), as fewer low-cost group, association and school trips could take place.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We subscribe strongly to the principle that performance is the best form of advertising. Nevertheless, we strive to pursue an active form of market cultivation that is not loud or aggressive, but has its own style and soul. The information we provide should always be honest, realistic and clear.<\/p>

Due to the new market situation, marketing has increasingly focused on digital market cultivation. Our online presence youthhostel.ch<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> and visibility were further optimised, as was the \u2018findability\u2019 of our website online. Consistent search engine optimisation and targeted online campaigns have brought positive results.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
