Cute little property and perfect for our one night stay in Interlaken. The cafe is adorable and breakfast was delicious. The staff was super helpful and the location is super walkable to many public transport options. Our main downside was the street noise and church bells that rang hourly through the night.

The Aarburg is right on the riverside with extraordinary colours. The cafe is a vibrant goto within the city with gorgeous coffee and provides a great buffet breakfast. Our room was spacious with an adjoining room for the adult children. It has a lounge available with hot drinks for all guests. The staff were very friendly and it was our favourite stop as we travelled through Switzerland.

Property was situated on the water with beautiful views from our bedroom windows. Entire family loved the delicious breakfast and coffees served each morning. Beds were comfortable and we sleep deeply after long days hiking. Everyone at the Aarburg was lovely and accommodating. We’re so glad we chose this location. Train station was close enough to walk to. Loved exploring Unterseen, Interlaken and surrounding areas. Highly recommend getting the Oberland Pass. We hopped all over the valley using the pass, using all modes of transportation offered.

Interlaken is overall a small city but the Aarburgh is in the middle of everything… staff super friendly and helpful, rooms big and convenient for large groups, the hotel only has 6 rooms (that I could count). No AC, but you open the window and have a cool breeze
