Fine if you know what you are letting yourself in for!

This is fine as a hostel for walkers/hikers/skiers but it is an odd building. Not unpleasantly so, but, for example, in my room there were gaps in the planks in the walls and, if people were so inclined, they could have looked through them. The sockets in the walls did not fit my adapter plug although it has worked everywhere else in Europe and beyond for many years, so I couldn't charge my phone. Fortunately I brought heavy-duty power packs, so it wasn't a problem. The internet was pretty non-existent until all the other guests had gone to bed. The bed was not comfortable. And the room was cold so I used every spare blanket I could find! However, on the plus side, this was a 15 min walk or less from the Scholthorn mountain cable car, it was cheaper than anywhere else and, as my reason for visiting was to spend the day at my favourite James Bond film location and I was only there two nights, it was fine for the money. If you're used to camping etc then roughing it for a few nights is fine. I didn't try the showers and sharing bathrooms when you reach "un certain age" is not fun, so if you're older or need privacy, be prepared. But this trip was all "location, location, location" for me, so it was fine. Definitely not recommended for young families or folk with mobility problems, I'd suggest.

"Peep holes" in walls, plug sockets didn't fit my adapters, uncomfortable bed, cold room.

Good mocation but cold inside

The bedsheets were clean. The location is super nice

It was cold and they didn‘t turn the heating on for more than 10-15mins. The kitchen was messy and they didn’t turn on the heating in the dining room for a single time no matter it was raining and all of us were cold

You'll love it, just not for us.

The location is amazing! And seeing waterfalls from our room.

The bed was tiny and the room was very expensive. It's extremely loud in that old building. You can hear everyone. Screaming children. This is not the place for young kids. You have to pay for the showers. The kitchen was too busy, and it's hard to be able to cook. It's really just a very expensive hostel (I know it's Switzerland, but even our $40 campsite had free showers)

I felt like I was at a friend's house

The staff was nice and friendly, I felt like I was at a friend's house. That was fantastic to read the guestbooks start from 1946.

Showers and toilets were separate and no hot water was on the toilet side. There might be a small kitchenette in the hall because the guest kitchen was on the basement floor and was a little bit cold but you can cook a festival/wedding meal in there with the whole cooking type of equipment :)

Perfekt für unsere Auszeit in schöner Kulisse

Sehr schönes altes Haus (Charme, Zimmeraufteilung Bad/WC auf Flur, hellhörig) sanft renoviert: hell, gemütlich modern und sehr sauber. 5 min Heisswasserbetrieb für Dusche 1.-, funktioniert super! Küche sehr gut ausgestattet, Kühlschränke vorhanden, Details wie Warenlift sind sehr praktisch und schöne Erinnerungsstücke. grosser Skiraum im Keller, inkl. Trockner für Schuhe. Hausschuhe mitbringen! Zimmer sind nicht beheizt aber die Pelletöfen auf dem Flur und im Aufenthaltsraum wärmen sehr gut, Gutes Schlafklima, Gute Betten/Decken. PP vor dem Haus. Sehr freundliche, hilfsbereite und flexible Besitzer, sehr schnelle Reaktion auf Fragen. Vielen Dank und bis bald!

A lovely family hostile in an idyllic setting.

in a beautiful location, very idyllic. It’s really like a hostel with individual rooms; I felt like I was backpacking again. There was a fully equipped kitchen in the basement. The caretaker was very pleasant.

nothing was opened in the town food- wise because it was a Monday night, so you have to bring your own groceries or be prepared to drive to the next town over for food.

Mrs. Diane and Mr. Mark the owner is such a beautiful soul her warmest heart embraced you, making your stay smooth. Her will to helped the clients oversees any hostess responsibilities. Overall this Hostel, The Alpenhof Mountain House is one to visit.

Very good

We thoroughly enjoyed the location and bunkbeds for the kids. Very self service. Bring your shower shoes for the community bathroom and they ask that you wear slippers indoors and leave your hiking boots at the entrance.

Enjoyed the mountains and the Swiss culture!

The setting for the Alpenhof is hard to beat if you love natural beauty. The walls of Lauterbrunnen valley tower above you and there is fast gondola or train access to the high elevations nearby. The "top of europe", the Jungfrau, towers above the house in snow covered beauty. It is especially appealing for families or small groups that want to share communal meals, hike, and tour the mountains in the Jungfrau region. In the Spring, there is a steady sound of mountain waterfalls and snow melt that soothes you to sleep. The owners are super helpful and friendly and have lived in the area for 20 years. They are native english speakers (helps if your german is nonexistent like mine). There is steady repeat business from people who know what to expect and appreciate the charm of this older, classic guest house. The Alpenhof is not a luxury resort, it's closer to the experience you might have at a swiss mountain hut. It's for people who want to experience travel that is more self-reliant and rustic. The beds are cozy and comfortable. The showers/bathrooms are simple. The kitchen in the basement is well equipped but basic. The larger group rooms upstairs are warm and comfortable. Since the location is at the end of the valley, a car may be useful. There is reliable mass transit to and from Interlaken, but it is slower than driving, and may not be frequent enough for travelers who want to run into town for groceries or a meal. The Alpenhof is my favorite place to stay when starting a hut trip or just looking for awe inspiring trips into nature. The gondola to Murren for a walk and some coffee is always a highlight.

Superb

Lovely building, staff, and location, far out of the towns but with easy/free transport back into town.

No wifi, which is often a blessing in disguise. Had to pay for shower and shared bathroom, which I didnt mind very much.

I would come back anytime without a doubt and highly recommend the place. Very, very nice staff that makes you immediately feel at home. Great kitchen for cooking, though in the cellar. The rooms are basic, but with a very cozy atmosphere. The surroundings and opportunities for hiking around the house are fantastic - fabulous - awesome. Hinteres Lauterbrunnental!!!

You can basically hear everything from the next room, but that is disclosed in the description by the host. The showers are a 1 € for 5 minutes, which is fine, but you really have to time those minutes well, which is a bit stressful. No wifi.

Best place to stay in the area. Exceptional host and cozy house!

It was my fourth time at this place. I enjoyed every momemnt with my friends. We did a hike from Stechelberg “Winteregg loop” and had a Fondue for a dinner at The Alpenhof Mountain House (there is equipment for that). You just need to buy cheese. Diane is such a warm and friendly person. We felt like in a family. She took very good care of us. Until next time!

Gem of Stechelberg!!!

They have complete facilities and let you use the kitchen for free. The room has extra warm blankets in case the weighted ones are not enough. The place is accessible to a bus that usually comes every 30minutes. Diane made me feel comfortable during my stay and guided me through the check in and was all smiles whenever I see her.

Lovely mountain stay in the alps

This is a simple, renovated mountain house beyond stechelberg those looking to walk off the pavement. While the rooms aren’t sound proof it’s well built with non squeaky floors and wooden walls and ceilings. Beautifully clean in interiors and linens, pillows, blankets and comfy firm beds. I have allergies so I was very appreciative of how clean and fresh the rooms are. We really enjoyed our stay. Our hosts gave us good and clear info ahead and were good natured with all comers. We hope to visit again. Lovely stay and location.

Everything was as advertised. It’s a simply in the country stay. Bath down the hall but really much better than anticipated because it’s in great shape and renovated not long ago, super clean.
