We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot water for showers. Only 10 minute bus/train into Interlaken, bus stop is very close walking distance to property. Hotel is right by the river and you can listen to the river at night- lovely! Breakfast was great. I would highly recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to Interlaken.

Cozy place but hot
The hotell is very cozy and situated next to a river. It has thus a fantastic view. Even though it’s two stations away from interlaken ost, it was very accessible by train. The hotel even gave us tickets to travel freely within the interlaken area during our stay.
However, it is a very simple accommodation without AC/fan which made it extremely hot inside the room (in July). The breakfast is simple but sufficient and we had like seven spiders as roommates.

Quaint
Quiet area, easy access to the trains and exploring the sights. Very quaint Inn. Room was way to hot and leaving an outside door open all night invited bugs and uncomfortable. Even a fan in the room might get have helped. Poor lighting in the bathroom. Good breakfast l, homemade bread was amazing

Absolutely OUTSTANDING property - everything was as advertised and the location and ambience is second to none. No room fridge, but leaving your beers outside the window works fine

The hotel has the best view, lovely aesthetic place to stay. Great location. Good breakfast.
Check out time is quite strict and not flexible, faced some last minute issues because of it.
The first floor balcony room doesn't have a secure door , which makes it unsafe.
Recommend the hotel to fix this ensuring a better stay.
Saying all this , I still highly recommend this place.
