The setting is wonderful and welcoming for travelers. Situated between two lakes with exceptional natural scenery and right next to the center of Interlaken, it's perfect for morning lakeside strolls or afternoon sightseeing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Different events are organized every evening, providing tourists with pleasant memories. It was also wonderful to see wonderful guests from different backgrounds gathered together, respecting and caring for one another, creating happy memories together. I was curious to explore Switzerland, and this trip gave me the opportunity to learn more about the country. I feel wonderful, taking with me so much positive energy from the pristine nature. Thank you. Have a nice day.

What struck me most was the fantastic mix of practicality, a casual atmosphere, and genuine fun. It's the kind of place where you feel completely at ease, meet wonderful people, spend a lively evening, or simply find a quiet corner to relax. From the shared kitchen and comfortable spaces to the entertainment areas and the stunning Interlaken setting, everything fits together naturally. There's a real sense of community here, without feeling obligated to participate in everything. Fantastic people, a fantastic atmosphere, and so many little details that make the stay memorable. We had a wonderful weekend, and Balmers is definitely a place I'd love to return to. Highly recommended!

This was my first stay in a hostel. From what I understand, it's not a typical hostel, but rather an above-average establishment. I must say, the facility is absolutely fantastic and very welcoming. Cleanliness is a top priority. I didn't particularly enjoy sharing a room with other guests, given that I'm about ten years older than average. However, that's to be expected in this type of establishment. Finally, the location is very central, in the heart of the city, allowing you to easily walk to any point of interest.

Beautiful inside and out; the design is incredibly functional for guests. The staff was very helpful. There was a refrigerator and coffee maker (for a fee ☕️) downstairs, which we thought was fantastic! I highly recommend the 8-person room over the others I saw. We had plenty of space and impeccably clean and modern bathrooms. The showers downstairs were the best we've ever experienced: very spacious and with good pressure. The only drawbacks are the lack of on-site laundry (the nearby laundromats are expensive) and the wooden beams in the center of the room that you have to bend under (we hit our heads really hard several times!!). For the price, though, I really can't complain. They host social events and have a game room/hammock that looks great for solo travelers looking to meet up.

It was one of the best hospitality experiences I've ever had, incredibly welcoming for solo travelers. The views from the rooms were beautiful. 100% recommended for anyone wanting to visit Interlaken. I hope to return soon ♥️

Comparé à Backpackers Villa, c'est un peu loin des gares. Ils fournissent un nettoyant pour siège de toilette, contrairement à la villa Backpackers. J'étais là-bas hors saison, donc il n'y avait qu'une autre personne dans le dortoir de 4 chambres. Tout était soigné et propre, mais pas de petit-déjeuner, proposé dans la villa Backpackers. Ils donnent des bouchons d'oreille gratuits, ce qui est un avantage, je suppose.

L'une des plus belles auberges dans lesquelles j'ai jamais séjourné. J'y suis allé en février 2019 et on nous a donné une chambre avec une vue magnifique sur la montagne. Proche de tout, un endroit idéal pour passer du temps entre amis et profiter des installations.

Superbe auberge et le personnel est très accueillant, les chambres sont propres et de grands casiers pour tout. Je reviendrais certainement. Jake était incroyable en tant que membre du personnel et derrière le bar, je le recommanderais.
