We knew it was an older hotel and the staff did the best they could.
The location is great.
Everything is passed its time. Work is being done on the hotel but it feels like filling patches. Breakfast very disappointing.

The view, location, room services, ambience, aesthetic, free breakfast, and the hotel itself is so lovely. It’s old but gold.
Entrance has no ramp for luggage. The stairs are quite high for a big luggage.

The location was fine. The hotel is old and badly needs renovation. The room was not comfortable. The electrical charging points were scarce and at very inconvenient places. The breakfast options were just ok.
We had booked a taxi for our drop to Interlaken Ost station in the morning thru the hotel front desk. The booking was made the previous day. However in the morning the taxi was not available and we discovered that the front desk lady had apparently not booked the taxi. Luckily, I was able to get a Uber taxi and could manage the situation. I would never ever stay is this hotel again.

Location
It’s very outdated . Not even a kettle in the room to make tea. Very uncomfortable eerie feeling . Did not like the hotel room at all . Dark and gloomy .
On website it said American continental breakfast - it was all cold food even the boiled eggs and baked beans were cold and hard . Worst breakfast ever had in a hotel . It was better not to serve anything .
8.0 / 10.0
The location is great — just a 5-minute walk from Interlaken West station, with a Coop supermarket nearby, which is very convenient. The room we got had a huge balcony with a beautiful view of the mountainThe room itself was quite spacious and comfortable.
However, the hotel is a bit old. The bathroom curtain didn’t look very professional — it had a Halloween print on it, which felt a bit strange. The electrical outlets also seemed quite old. The breakfast was just average, and the corridor was quite dark — when the automatic light turned off, it felt a little scary.
2.0 / 10.0
Very convenient location. From train station it is very close. But management have to spend more money to upgrade hotel.
Entrance to hotel is stairs, it is very hard to carry luggage’s. Coffee machine is not fixed for three days. Management does not care about it. The Notes put on bathroom door is humiliating guests. Upgrade your hotel first.
Employee does not have spirit to serve guests.
They think guests they can humiliate them
anyway and anytime.

Sheets were clean and good location.
Water stained ceilings, towels were small and like sand paper, soap was terrible, breakfast was not worth it, decor and rooms were failing apart, shower curtain was cheep and gross. No toilet paper in lounge bathroom, motion light in hallway was not working so hallway was very dark.

View was a solid plus.
Breakfast met our expectations.
Overall we liked it alot.
We were just wondering; there is no airconditioning, so what happens in summer if it gets warmer :)
Nothing negative.

Perfect location, very good value, parking price is reasonable.
No blackout curtains or shades!! Terrible!! Very poor soundproofing, people talking in the corridor sound like in my room. Staff also talk loudly in the corridor, impossible to sleep quietly after 7am.

Property location is the only thing good about it
No hotel staff to carry bags to the room, hotel room was in a poor state walls chipped paint worn off floors and cabinetry not in good shape
Bathroom has only one dim light no exhaust, hand wash is like a public bathroom in a large soap container, no hotel facilities.
Hotel has a weird smell don’t recommend staying

Location
The property is very old and outdated. We booked 3 rooms. The single room furniture is unbearable, not even as good as college dorm. The sheet looks unclean. One of the double room smells very bad, we had to open the door for a long time. The breakfast is quite mid, not a lot of things to choose from. Also the price we paid is considered high, $300 per night, I would expect the condition to be much better.
10.0 / 10.0
Everything was nearly perfect. Location, accessibility, personnel, clean, the view amazing, very silent location with the sound of the river flow at night, room was perfect, bathroom big and easy to use
The price was a bit high but in comparison with the rest of the area was very good
9.0 / 10.0
Location and balcony perfect
Really need updating especially toilet.
No kettle to go back on your room to enjoy the balcony. If your a tea lovers wants to enjoy to relax after long exploring there’s no kettle to make tea or coffee .

This hotel offers breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains that make every morning magical. It's perfectly nestled between two beautiful lakes, giving you a sense of peace and serenity all around. The rooms are equally impressive – spacious, beautifully designed, and super comfortable. A perfect mountain-lake getaway! 🏔️🏞️✨
Water cattle were missing

Excellent location on riverside, close to train station and town centre amenities.
Hotel a little bit tired. No aircon so really not comfortable in the summer heat. Didn’t stay long enough to use any of the hotel facilities (had to rush, so no time). A few items in my room were in need of a little TLC.
Quite expensive for the hotel’s quality level.

The location is amazing, just a few steps away from the West train station! Very convenient. The views from my room were absolutely breathtaking and I felt safe as a solo female traveller.
Very minor thing but the shower water pressure was a little weird and hard to control but the water temperature and bathroom was overall good.

Location was excellent- close to Interlaken West for trains and buses and right beside the Aare River.
My room was very hot. There was also work going on opposite my room where another room was being completely renovated. I found the breakfast just okay

Clean enough but dated- could use a little more TLC. A bit over priced

I LOVED THIS HOTEL! The location right next to the train station, the balcony, the lovely lady who works at the front desk. It was a wonderful experience.
4.0 / 10.0
This property is in serious need of refurbishing: painting, plastering, new bathrooms and linens, as well as a thorough cleaning. Not one thing on the breakfast buffet is made on premises. Make it yourself eggs in a small frying pan everyone else uses, hot dogs in lukewarm water and canned beans. There is some sliced questionably “fresh” fruit, and boxed cookies, a coffee machine that doles out lukewarm liquid. The rooms have decades old furnishings. The only positive one can say about this property is plenty of hot water and a central location.

Location was good
Pictures that advertise the hotel were totally misleading. They advertise a rooftop deck and it isn’t there. The room had peeling paint and other stains. The whole smelled from the cooking in the restaurant on the lower floor.
9.0 / 10.0
Superb location — the hotel is right in front of the station. Our balcony had a breathtaking view of the Jungfrau and the river below. It was incredibly relaxing to sit outside and listen to the sound of the flowing water. The breakfast was simple but delicious.
The room lacked a few basic amenities such as a kettle, coffee maker, and mini fridge.

Very polite workers. Hotel was very clean. Great location. Breakfast was A+. Recommend.
Had to do an early Check-out (6am) and there was no one at the front desk to receive my keys. No big deal. Everything else was great.
