    Pros +

    • Hostel is very clean. Good coffee and excellent breads for breakfast. Good locker storage.
    • clean, good location, easy to follow rules and free breakfast.
    • It is basic but somehow complete!You have all the things to stay in comfortable way, especially when you have to stay with a grand maLike we did with my 80 years momOn a wheelchair, this hostel is very comfortable.The staff really helped, and the breakfast is nice.

    Cons -

    • Room is dark, need more light. In the winter, day lights are very short for excursions or activities. Breakfast should be opened earlier so that we can leave by 7ish. Even though kitchen is available, why should we cook and clean when breakfasts are already paid for.
    • snoring by next person.
    • The size of room is small

    The size of room is small

    8HonylynPosted on: 1-10-2026

    The facility was great, and the staff were incredibly friendly and approachable. The spacious kitchen downstairs was clean and perfect for cooking and dining. Its location was ideal, being close to everything. The complimentary breakfast was a great way to start the day, and the coffee was excellent.

    The Laundry machine/dryer is outdated.

    10AlexanderPosted on: 1-5-2026

    Huge kitchen dining area with several cooking stations, and a common area upstairs to meet other travelers. The staff was really helpful with advice on hikes around the area. Location is next to a bus stop, but also walkable to both train stations in Interlaken. Great breakfast and tea all day!

    Warm staff and nice compli breakfast; Big kitchen

    Only 1 pillow per person and too flat

    9yinonPosted on: 12-28-2025

    Value for money. Parking next to entrance. The commen kitchen.

    The room was different from the photos. Not as nice.

    10John C.Posted on: 12-19-2025

    The facilities especially their common area where you can eat your own dinner. It is also a direct bus stop so easy to locate.

    8Joses P.Posted on: 12-18-2025

    Clean lobby. Great location. Worth the price.

    No shoe wardrobe in the room.

    9Targa411Posted on: 12-17-2025

    Location, friendly staff, value for money, elegant facilities

    Room area quite small, limited breakfast options. But both are acceptable based on the limited budget

    10JoelPosted on: 12-9-2025

    First time stay. I was in a private single room, so cannot comment on the dormitory situation. My room was extremely quiet, and very comfortable. Solid concrete walls so could not hear anyone else. Handy personal safe in the room. Very nice crew on the front desk - ready to answer any travel questions about the area and make recommendations. Breakfast was good - continental as advertised but enough to start your day. Need a couple more toasters though; seemed someone always waiting! Great location - can walk easily to either main train station. Wifi was good enough for YouTube and FaceTime connections. I would recommend this place and plan to stay again on a future visit.

    All good.

    10RosianmariePosted on: 11-10-2025

    Should offer more variety in breakfast.

    Provide only one towel per person during our stay. They charge 5 CHF for each extra towel.

    7LingpengPosted on: 10-23-2025

    Location is good. Kitchen is good

    They even charge you for towels!

    6HaydenPosted on: 10-11-2025

    Many complimentary items and breakfast

    Staff was unhelpful and would not let me change rooms after I could not sleep with roommates snoring

    9NelsonPosted on: 10-10-2025

    Great location, nice dining area, with coffee at discounted price. Kitchen area that we can reheat food and prepare simple meals. Lots outdoor space for us to enjoy.

    Mini fridge at the room will be better.
