I loved the place. The view was awesome. If you wanted to feel something unreal then should visit once. Lovely and friendly people from different places, countries. Location was good. You can walk for bus station and train station. Mountain view. Very respectful staff. Very clean and tidy area. Lots of chilling areas, they have different club activities and bar. Highly recommended place.

Balmers was awesome. if you want to meet tons of people from all over this is the place. Everyone, from the staff to the guests, were extremely friendly, social, and welcoming. The staff were some of the bests people ive ever met. Ivan was so amazing. They offer activities to go on which makes it easy to meet people and get the most out of your trip. it was one of the nicest, cleanest, well maintained hostel ive been to. Its worth the price. They have a club, bars, great outside area, close to a ton of great restaurants, great mountain view, easy walk to train station, and a coffee machine (necessary). loved this place and miss it everyday. also the Indian food in the area is top notch.

One of the best hostels I've ever been to... the infrastructure is well-designed. In the shared rooms, everyone has a large "drawer" that you can lock and store their belongings. Each bed has a lamp and a USB and C port. There are plenty of 🚽 and several showers. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare a full meal, and there's a Coop (supermarket) two blocks away. They have their own bars inside, one outdoors in the courtyard, and another underground one with a ping-pong table and karaoke. They also have a hostel "museum" with a pool table and darts. The jacuzzi seen in the photos no longer exists or is only used in the summer; it didn't exist in September 😅. They organize several activities for everyone to socialize. There's something for everyone, but I recommend arriving with a good level of English if you're looking to socialize. There's a bus stop right in front and they also give you a transport card so you can at least save on the bus fare... Context: we used it to sleep, eat and bathe, to come back from hiking and rest and we went in September. Obviously it's very different from a hotel or an Airbnb, that's why it's called a hostel.

The best hostel I've ever been to! The activities, the people, the staff, all top-notch! The Balmers guys—Joel, Dario, Ivan, Ori, Wilson, and the others—are geniuses! If you have to go to Interlaken, this is the best place to stay, without a doubt! They have everything you need to have the best time at the hostel: a great kitchen, dining room, places to relax, play music, play games, their own disco—everything. This was my second time there, and I would choose them again! Balmers will always be in my heart.

Se construire dans Interlaken a été une excellente décision, et rester à Balmers était encore mieux. Tous ceux qui y travaillent sont super sympas et Dario était toujours disponible! Je reviendrai ❤️

Stayed in a mixed 6 bed dorm, it was in a perfect location only 15/20min walk from both stations. Rooms are basic but have everything you need, there was only 1 toilet and 1 shower on our floor which i think was shared with 12 people which did get difficult at times especially when everyone wants to use them at the same time, however more toilets and showers on the lower floors. The kitchen was a little dirty and the fridge was out of order which was kinda annoying. They give out bus passes which was helpful as we could then use any buses for free. I can imagine that if you were solo travelling it would be the most perfect hostel as they did activities in the evenings so you can meet other travellers & had an affordable restaurant and pub next door!

Look; it's a hostel - so the rooms are small, it's cramped, the beds are small, etc. But the vibe and the energy and the people staying there and the staff are great. It's in a neat area of Interlaken eith plenty of grocery store, bar, bakery and restaurant options. Jake, the bartender is great!@!

L'auberge est magnifique! Les réceptionnistes de Santa Fe / Argentin donnent vie à l'auberge. Je reviendrais toujours!

Une expérience irréelle chez Balmers ces derniers jours, Dario et l'équipe ont fait de l'atmosphère un endroit idéal pour passer du temps et rencontrer des gens. Également un excellent endroit pour les gares et les arrêts de bus. Tout a été nettoyé quotidiennement et tout le personnel était respectueux. Je reviendrai bientôt!

Tout était soigné, propre et bien organisé pour la quantité d'invités qu'ils ont.
Le personnel est gentil et serviable.
L'auberge a un excellent emplacement pour un prix abordable.
Je reviendrai!
