This is the most beautiful hostel I have ever stayed. The view from the hostel is amazing. Location is good. But please keep in mind that it's better to take the Bus 122 to get to hostel instead of walking up the hill( if it's your first time arriving there).

Amazing view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau from the private room. Shared room experience was also a pleasent surprise. Breakfast was varied and tasty. We woke up at 7 AM and had the First Cliff Walk almost only to ourselves before the crowds came with the gondolas. The staff was really kind and friendly. The 3 course supper was very delicious (salad, ragout and applecake) and price/quality ratio was exceptional for Swiss standards.

The staff are too friendly and very efficient in providing the best facilities to the clients. They were even ride to provide us a drive when the bus to interlaken got cancelled and we were to miss our paragliding slot. Breakfast is the best. Their Swiss Culinary(we had our dinner there) is just delicious.

The location was great, it was really close to the town, right on the lake, and very close to a great kayak rental shop that I used. The hosts were so kind and helpful, the hostel was very clean and well-thought out, and everything was just excellent, especially for my first time staying in a hostel and traveling alone.

Great architecture, very well laid out, good food, nice staff. Perfect for family skiing, groups of friends etc etc. we actually had a mishap on the slopes- a member of our party broke her collar bone and needed hospitalisation and the staff at the hostel went above and beyond with their helpfulness and understanding. The provided a late dinner for anxious parents and lots of advice and reassurance as well as flexibility around check out and booking extra nights. Would rate 110%

Great location, heart of the Lauterbrunnen. Parking available. Everything was clean, kitchen had all necessities. We could it either inside kitchen area or outside in terrace with view to mountains. Welcoming owner. Great first time experience staying in a hostel. In our floor there were 4 rooms and 2 wc , 2 bathrooms for the rooms, everything was 1 step away from our room. Terrace in the room was nice. Would stay there again.

It's a perfect place if you just want to spend a night to sleep at the budgeted cost. You'll get a room with bunk bed to sleep, the other services like kitchen, rest-room, shower etc. are shared. The location is also great as it's near to the Interlaken OST station. You'll get the nice view of Aare river tributary just outside the stay.

This is the most unbelievable hostel that you will ever stay in. It is absolutely beautiful and pristinely queen and in a great location. Don't be tempted to stay like over by the shops because that's kind of a terrible area this is over where there are mansions and it's easily walkable from the train station. Also they give you a bus card for free anyway but anyone could walk it it's like 5 minutes. The rooms are great the breakfast area is great the view is great it's just amazing

Amazing location!! We had an upstairs room looking into the valley. It’s a short walk or bus into town. The hostel included a table tennis table, games room, an industrial kitchen plus more. This was a great place to stay if you’re on a budget.

clean room. clean kitchen and bathroom. most facilities available. bed not very comfortable and felt cold in the night. maybe could hv asked for extra cover sheet. dint know about the nearest bus station at first. my bad. walked with the luggage to the hostel. Interlaken gymnasium is the nearest bus station. Made life so much easy. overall recommended stay in good budget. Mr Walter is really good. allowed us early check in too for free.
