Great location right by the Interlaken West Train station. My room was too hot, couldn’t lower the temperature any more. The room itself was good, had everything that you would need. Breakfast was very good.

Super Location
Hotel is located just in front of the Interlaken West train station.
It was a surprise to us when we found that the entrance to the hotel is just 10m from the train when we alighted.
It’s a good choice to stay here for few days when you make your trip in and out to the different Alps in the vicinity.

Literally at the doorstep of Interlaken West station, you can walk out from the hotel directly to the platform so it cannot be more convenient. Close to shopping street with plenty of food options as well. Room condition is clean though it can be a bit dusty, amenities provided are sufficient (but only one complimentary bottle of water over three days of stay). Breakfast has a good spread. Overall a nice stay.
