We stayed here for 2 nights. Clean rooms with river view. Walkable from the train station. Wonderful breakfast. Owner is super nice. He packed us some breakfast the previous night as we are leaving early the next morning. We will stay here again if we are in this area next time.

The hotel location is excellent, especially if you have a river view room. There are limited to no shopping/ food options so the included breakfast was super helpful. The train station is a short walk away so it was easy to travel to the central Interlaken ost station in ~6 mins. The room was tiny and the bathroom didn't feel well ventilated despite having a ventilator. Probably an artefact of being an older stone-ish building.

Get a room facing the river

If we had a room that faced the town and river I’m sure I would give a much higher rating but we didn’t so this was just a small small room with a cement wall to look at.

We are on what they call the 1st floor, but essentially it’s half basement. The faucet in the sink of the bathroom can’t be turned off fully and kept water running; shower walls leak water out onto the floor. The room is very small!

This hotel was only a 3 minute walk to the train. If you do have a car, parking here is very convenient. Our room was in front of the river running past and next door to the church. It was a great place for sleeping and the beds and room were very comfortable. Breakfast was good. There is NO interaction with the owners, you just come and go with your key.
