This quaint hotel was perfect and charming. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. It’s a little off the beaten path so if you’re looking for a getaway from the tourists areas, this is a perfect quiet spot with amazing views. Because you are higher up on the mountain, the sun shines brightly on this hotel. I visited some of the other hotels nearby and doing the staff to be quite rude. Would definitely recommend this hotel over others in the area.

My mom and I really enjoyed our stay here! Very cute and clean place, and the view is exactly what I would imagine Switzerland would be like. I really loved unwinding in a quieter area compared to interlaken, where you’d just wake up to shops. The bus also stops right out the front of the hotel! The frequency was lesser but it didn’t bother us one bit :) The staff here is also very friendly, they are generally very accommodating and I love that they offer to pack your breakfast box if you have to leave early for your day!

We enjoyed the views in this small town. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The only issue was the limited hours of operation of the public bus. The last bus from Interlaken departed at 7pm. We ended up paying $60 for taxi to return from Interlaken at one night.

We very much enjoyed our stay here. Very friendly staff. Comfortable room/bed. All was very clean. Breakfast was good. The bathroom needed to be remodeled, but functional, clean, plenty of hot water. I think it is in the owner's plan to redo the bathrooms soon. Location was good for Interlaken area, but in a quiet area instead of busy city. We would stay here again.

Amazing stay, amazing hosts

Our stay was wonderful at Gasthof Baren. We ate of the the best meals we had on our entire 2 week trip with the most hospitable treatment by our hosts. I would recommend anyone stay at this location, my only wish is that we stayed longer. Habkern is very sweet and I would recommend anyone stay in Habkern and take the bus into interlaken for day trips. The bus was very easy and convenient from the hotel.

Quaint hotel, some rooms likely better than others

I think a positive stay at this hotel depends a lot on your room assignment and the other guests being respectful of the posted hours. Our room was directly next to the shared terrace, and we slept horribly. It was hot in the room with no fans, but guests were outside our window and in the apartment a story up until very late, and then others were outside early in the morning. We did open the windows for a few hours and that was more pleasant. Overall, it was a pleasant hotel but very sparse and small. My daughter opted to sleep on the floor over the bed as she was too tall. The owners were very kind and the village of Habkern is lovely. We were surprised at our experience given all the other rave reviews, so we figured it was just the room we got that was not great.
