Interlaken Hostels

If you're considering the price, you might have to put up with a few things. This is one of the few slightly cheaper 'hotels' (actually a guesthouse) in Interlaken. Here's my experience in August 2026: **Location:** Follow your navigation – it's not particularly close to Interlaken Ost station, so you'll have to walk for a bit. The entrance is near a hotpot restaurant, which you'll need to look for carefully. **Service:** Basically, there's no service to speak of. You have to ring the doorbell and wait for the owner to come and collect payment and register you. If you need to store luggage, you have to go to another guesthouse elsewhere. Please note! If you need to store luggage early the next morning, no one will be there before 7:30 AM, so don't go there expecting to. **Facilities and Cleanliness:** Overall, the cleanliness was acceptable; nothing messy. However, the facilities are like a student dorm, with 2 bunk beds, extremely soft mattresses, and one mini private bathroom (I think there were shared ones outside too, but I didn't check). **Other:** You'll have to carry your luggage up 2-3 flights of stairs, as there's no elevator.

The facilities are relatively old, with a kitchen and two shared toilets. The price of a domestic five-star hotel, the experience of a youth hostel. This is the only way to stay in a popular scenic spot. Check-in was smooth and the staff were very enthusiastic.
