Staff are friendly. ##### Genes Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### A great pick for Interlaken! Balmer's has a ton of character! I really liked the different common areas for hanging out, and the kitchen was massive with lots of fridges. It's great if you want to cook your own meals. The under the bed storage bins for each person were a nice touch. Unfortunately, it did get a bit hot at night with only a non-oscillating fan. The bus stops right outside made getting around super easy. They also offer activities for guests (I didn’t join any), but it definitely had a social vibe. Overall, a great stay! ##### Jennifer Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea 11 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable room with excellent view of Jungfrau Double room was very comfortable and had excellent view of Jungfrau.

The doors are so loud and you can hear every conversation through the walls. We also booked a “Private 8 Person Dorm” which said “Room Facilities- Bathroom” So we assumed it had a bathroom but no they are communal bathrooms which is in the very small print. Very misleading. ##### Morgan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin 17 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great option for Interlaken Great option to meet other travelers and enjoy stories of others and share ideas of fun things to do around interlaken ##### Colin Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Min 12 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Our room is in attic and right across the washing area, for some reason every time the toilet flushes we can hear a loud gurgling sound in the room and there always are people talking very late at night, this is not a place for light sleeper and I did not rest well during my stay. I like the well equipped public kitchen and there is coop nearby so cooking was nice and easy. ##### Min Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nairys Lagos 12 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Best hostel ever. I'm very picky solo woman and i absolutely loved it. It is an experience not just a hostel. They give you a free bus pass too. It is super clean and close to things. The owner was there when i checked out he was very kind and asked me about my experience. ##### Nairys Lagos Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicholas 12 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was a good hostel but not great. The “J” rooms need a shower that’s closer. Maybe convert the kitchen that was out of order. ##### Nicholas Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CARLOS HENRIQUE 20 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lugar muito bom pra curtir com amigos ##### CARLOS HENRIQUE Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Håkan 25 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kommer tillbaka!
