The reception folks were very courteous and helpful. I liked the access to the train station, bus as well as for the cable car from this lodge. I was pleased to find out that we can take the local bus (121,122) for free within the Grindelwald. Overall, it was a pleasant stay!!!!

Honestly, this was the second hostel that I stayed at and it was wonderful. I couldn’t ask for a better experience. I normally don’t ever do reviews but I had to do one for this place everything about it was perfect. And if you get a chance to get Klara as a receptionist, she was wonderful and answered all my questions.

The guy at the front desk was very kind and helpful. I asked if I could switch rooms and he said he will check and then he was able to find another room for me. The rooms were clean and spacious. It’s also a great location, close to the terminal, bus stop, and train station.

Good location, but the rooms are really dated, the toilets/showers are really basic, the kitchen is really unpractical (no toaster, no oven or hob, just one microwave and a really small fridge for such a big hostel).

I wanted to express my gratitude to a lady receptionist. I arrived early and stored my luggage in the baggage room and then put the key at the counter. I went to explore Interlaken and called to inform that I would be late for a proper check in and I needed to get the luggage from the baggage room which I didn't have the access to. She was really kind and waited for me, sorry to have kept you waiting.

It was okay, as far as low expectations for a hostel. The one toilet for women on my floor stopped working, instead of a sign, it appeared to just be locked, so women would stand there waiting.

Grossly overprices for what it is - a very bare bones hostel. We were told we needed to pay for towels and we needed to strip our own beds at the end of our stay. Fine, but not for 200 francs per night. We stayed in incredible hotels in Switzerland elsewhere for the same price (checkout the lodge in Niederhorn, for example). The rooms are outdated and simpler than pictured online. Think of a college dormitory from the 80s...smells a bit like it too. The shared bathrooms and showers are rather far from the rooms. The hot tub pictured looks as if it hasn't worked for quite some time. However, the location is very convenient, the breakfast is fine, and the rooms are clean.

We called in and had two twin beds a bathroom and air conditioner and they ended up putting us in their other side which was a brothel I'm 61 years old I didn't go on vacation to sleep in the brothel I was a little disappointed the room was fine but I had to walk clear down the hall to go to the bathroom I'm not sure if that was their fault or the booking site we went through but be careful if you went here to make sure you get the right side

The hostel was overly communal. I had to share one outlet with my bunkmate. The voltage converter I have to use does not fit with outlets so close together. Their lockers also required a 5 franc piece which I could not be given as change or ask the reception for. Everyones phones also fell under the beds and the only way to retrieve them was with someone with a long arm.

Smooth late night check in with information package waiting for me. Nutritious breakfast for hikers. Very clean. Very service minded staff. Nice place over all very close to Terminal. Ticket for local bus to village included during stay. Only downside would be the pulsating temperature in showers.

In the middle of the building site for the new cable car, smell of stale beer in communal areas and construction site dust outside. Inaccurate room description on Expedia. We took a refund and stayed elsewhere.

I would give them 2/5 stars. You have to put on the bedsheets on the mattress, pillow case on the pillow, and cover on the blanket yourself. The bathroom and showers were only downstairs so had to go down everytime. Wifi is only available in the lobby so again have to go downstairs. Towels and such are not provided automatically, and when we asked for them, we got very dirty looks from the staff. Finally, we’ve been to other hostels in Swiss itself where bathrooms were on every floors, wifi available in rooms, beds were already made, towels were provided for each person, and price of the stay was less than this place. Therefore, I would not recommend this place.Only positive was the breakfast was decent. Nothing great, just cereal, milk, bread, butter, jam, some sliced meats and cheese, but satisfying.

Hostel is located close to train and bus station (buses are free with guest card which one u get when u check in). For now is a little bit noisy cuz next to hostel another building is under construction. The price are reasonable like for expensive switzerland. Very kind and helpful receptionist , very clean showers and toilets. Old but comfortable beds. Wifi working good, u can use computer and printer, lobby is huge and with a lot of places to sit. Kitchen is outside the building and u can prepare ur own dishes. (we don't find any cups for tea :( Minus for payable towels and small choises on breakfast, no eggs :( but coffee was delicious. We will come again ;)

The hotel is pretty good and is value for money, however, it is of a 20-minute walk distance to the Grindelwald Train Station, but very close to the Jungfrau rail station. It is quite interesting that they put the kitchen out of the building and I have to eat with the company of insects
