This was a great location just a 2-3 minute walk from a major transit station. I would stay here again and I would recommend this. Considering what food costs in Switzerland, free breakfast was important. There is a warning on the back of the bathroom door that if you steam up the room and set off the fire alarm, it's a 150CHF fine, and I was worried about it before I showered. I later learned that it is not a problem at all at standard shower temperatures. No need to stress. I stayed in a one twin bed room. It was small but not cramped and had everything I needed.

Positives: Very close to train station, market and eateries with vegetarian options. Lake facing with good scenic beauty. Negatives No electric kettle in room. To get hot water you have to go to lobby. The hot water container is generally switched off and you have to wait for 30-45 minutes for water to get hot. Not enough lights in the room. Charging sockets for phones were difficult to find. Found one behind bed side table almost at floor level. Did not find it value for money.

Hotel is under renovation. The rooms beside ours is undergoing demolition. Good thing we were there only at night. The hotel needs to improve customer service in general. Maybe because the hotel is really dated and undergoing renovation but customer service shouldnt be compromise. Breakfast should serve better, fresher food, fruits!

The receptionist was rude while I checked in. The breakfast was below average compared to other hotels in Switzerland. Overall this hotel is only good for its location as it’s near Interlaken West station and is adjacent to a river.

We loved our stay here!! Make sure to request a room with a balcony & view of the water, absolutely stunning views of the mountains & city. Affordable and great location. The women at the front desk gave us great recommendations. Breakfast options were just ok & not super clean (ex: utensils could’ve been washed better, etc) but can’t complain. It had an espresso machine which was very nice. Definitely recommend staying here!

Central location and great room. Pricy, but excellent breakfast options and price is comparable to others in the area... It's a tourist town, so it's expected, I guess. Room was not sound proof despite closing windows and terrace doors, so early morning disturbance from loud tourists and trains in the area

The hotel is rather shabby in places, with quite a few trip hazards, but our room was clean and the breakfast provided had many options. It doesn’t feel like a very welcoming hotel - too many notices starting with 'Don't '- and staff not particularly interested. For example, youre not permitted tobyse a travel kettle and you'll need to bring an adapter to charge your phone. I asked if they had a charging point and was told bluntly 'Buy plug'.

This hotel is in dire need of repair. Old hotel which can be charming but not this one. REDRUM. Couldn't wait to leave. Musty smell. Rooms were big. Big bathroom but stained toilet and tub. Could use a better clean. Breakfast was horrible. Hot food was mixed veggies, hot dogs and beans??? 😒
