Essential by Dorint Interlaken
Modern large room. Great location next to train station. Note there is no fridge in the room which wasn’t a problem as we stayed in December and left our milk on the balcony and it stayed cold! Great friendly staff. Great breakfast included. Nice bar area. Would highly recommend.

Interlaken as a whole was just ok. The breakfast at the hotel was mediocre. It was all just OK.

The Hey Hotel
Staff was helpful, location was very conveniently situated at the city centre. Good views and breakfast. However, the room was slightly dirty. Dust was found all over the sheets.

Hotel Regina Wengen
The hotel sits high in the village with breathtaking views and feels like something from the past. The building is old but well maintained to be a lovely experience. We had an older style room but our friends had a modern decor room which makes me think they are updating rooms. The staff were wonderful ...
