Outdoors Gateway to Jungfrau
Typically Swiss, Interlaken has an incredible location: on the Aar River linking nearby Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, and in the shade of magnificent Alpine mountains including famous Jungfrau. The wonderful views are seen flying into Interlaken Airport.
The lakes are great spots for sailing, swimming or simply having a picnic along the peaceful shores. The area also has its fair share of high-adrenaline pursuits including bungee jumping, paragliding and river rafting.
In winter it’s all about the Interlaken skiing and snowboarding, with options including the fabulous Jungfrau Winter Sport Region and family-friendly areas with easy slopes. The Jungfrau-Aletsch-Bietschhorn glacier is UNESCO World Heritage-listed, and the Jungfraujoch mountain railway takes you to the Top of Europe, the highest railway station in Europe. For a break from skiing, Europe’s longest toboggan run is a thrill a minute. Après-ski ranges from bars and discos to cosy restaurants serving specialities like fondue and raclette.
The town offers great views of the snowy peak of Jungfrau, best seen from Höheweg which also has a Japanese garden and lots of shops selling all things Swiss. Also here is the Hotel Victoria Jungfrau and the Hotel Royal St Georges, 2 Swiss Heritage Sites that are just some of the Interlaken accommodation options on Booking.com.

We visited Interlaken for 3 nights during our 10 day vacation in Italy - Switzerland. We took the Golden Pass train from Luzern to Interlaken which was a beautiful ride - highly recommend it. Scenery is spectacular, looked like right out of a story book.

The views were breathtaking, the people we met were incredibly helpful and friendly (and didn't make me feel horribly for not speaking German correctly), and I loved the promenades and ability to walk around the town.

Very touristy and the city shows that.
Very touristy and the city shows that. Book adventure trips outside of it though and use as a base. Go for canyoneering or skydiving. Too many paragliders for folks who want a view but not be active. Try hiking or doing something physical to make your stay more memorable.
“This hotel was in a great location with incredible views! About a 10 minute walk from the Interlaken West train station making transport very convenient. Breakfast was also wonderful! The Owen of the hotel was very helpful in planning our days while there especially the rainy day. I would definitely stay there again!”
“The owner of this hotel was so helpful and accommodating. Provided excellent tips for sightseeing which enabled us to see parts of Interlaken we otherwise wouldn't have ("off the beaten path" type stuff). Comfortable beds, great breakfast, excellent location to Interlaken West. Best value for the area; I would definitely stay here again!”
“I would have preferred a larger room and a private bathroom, but given the price everything was fine. And we really appreciated getting a queen size bed!!! If we are able to visit Interlaken again with the same budget restrictions, we would definitely use your hotel again. Also, the breakfast was very good.”
