We had a great experience at Balmers Hostel during our time in Interlaken. Check-in was seamless, and a big shoutout to Joel, who was super helpful with local recommendations and transit information.
Since it was our first time staying there, Joel also gave us each a free bus pass for the duration of our stay and we used it every day.
The hostel itself is large and has a quaint, cozy charm, filled with cute trinkets and decorative touches that give it a really warm, welcoming atmosphere. There are plenty of common areas to relax or meet other travelers.
Overall, Balmers is a well-run, character-filled hostel with great service. We’d definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Interlaken!
