Best hotel of our whole European trip! The beds are wonderful, we had the best sleep by far!
The staff are so friendly and always happy to help and greeted us daily with smiles, has the family feel about the place which is rare these days!
Brilliant views out our balcony too! Ten out of ten for this hotel, can't wait to come back!
I stayed here for 2 nights. Location wise it's pretty far up the hill. I took a cab from Interlaken OST (wrong stop) and it costs abt CHF19, which was worth it as I didn't have to trudge in the rain.
On the 2nd night the power went off, as too many people were using the heaters. The pillows were too soft and yup, floors were creaky, but I love that this hotel was away from the town and that I got to experience the woods while walking to interlaken west station. People here are also friendly and having a microwave and boiler were pluses for me.
We slept in the old 'budget' area of this old hotel, quite noisy due to old wooden floors and close highway. Rooms are very old stylish and would need at least to be repainted. Toilet and showers are in common but very clean. The personnel is very kind and helpful and there is the possibility to park outside the hotel for free, which is not bad in Switzerland. Had no chance to try the breakfast as that part of the hotel was closed during our stay. In the end should say that we got what we expected, so have to be quite satisfied
This was our favourite hotel of our three week tour of Switzerland and France. Very old fashioned with all the original features and very clean. We loved the breakfast dining room very art nouveau.
We were on the top floor with a large room with a patio that had fantastic views of the Jungfrau mountain.
The staff were brilliant and recommended the local brewery restaurant just down the street and the food there was the best we had on holiday. Will definetly go back.
We have a 3 days 2 nights stay in Wald. As a matter of fact, we are at our second night here. We started off with a super long walk (our mistake). We landed at wrong train station and took a super long walk from Interlaken Ost. (Wrong info by Tourist Info counter)
Tips: Stop at Interlaken West train station and take bus number 104 to Heimwehfluh. Its the closest bus stop. Then walk up along the woods around 5 - 10 minutes and you will see the hotel. Ask people nearby the bus stop before you start walking.
Hotel provide a tourist card that gives you free bus access for your period of stay (upon arrival) Margot, Rene and their son are great hosts. They willingly answer all our concerns and queries. Our room's heater was not working and Margot quickly change us to another room (middle of the night)
Rene made sure we familliarize ourselves with the roads around and they make us feel at home. Free wifi with good speed even when we are in the room. We got our room on top floor with a view of the mountains. Great for our candle light dinner. Basic amenities provided.
Rooms, floor and bathroom can be a little old (part of whats making it homey) but not disturbing at all.
Be sure to return hotel before dark or you will have to walk im the dark pass the woods (mentioned by someone before). It was only when we experienced it on our own that we understood the feeling.
Breakfast (breads, cereal, tea, coffee, milk, juice, salami, yogurt) are provided from 7.30am onwards. We requested for extra pillow and it was quickly responded. We were greeted before we stepped in the hotel and Rene knew who we are before we mentioned (Probably the only other Asian guest)
Overall a great experience and would recommend to others to stay. There are many other hotels around, find out wgat you want to do first. We like being away from the busy city and experience some peace quiet and calm environment. The service we received was a bonus. :)
