Why do you want to join the French League of Youth Hostels (LFAJ) network ?
Wanting to join the historic YOUTH HOSTELS network is an independent voluntary action.
A Youth Hostel is, first and foremost, a collective accommodation structure where reception, meeting and exchange, for nearly 90 years, have been our everyday practices.
The hostel is involved in the local landscape, and is visibly active in Tourism FOR ALL.
By affiliating with the LFAJ network :
- You are part of a volontary national network of Youth Hostels known and
recognised by the Secretary of State for Youth whilst remaining independent in your own management.
- You give your hostel the benefit of promotion using our communication tools, Internet site, hardcopy guide, shared promotion actions…
- The LFAJ keeps you informed of any administrative and legislative developments in the field of accommodation and hosting for young people.
