This place is the business. I booked 2 nights & 5 nights later i'm still here. Its not really a party place but if your after an awesome view, brilliant staff and a mellow atmosphere its well worth the visit. Loved it & will definately stay here when i come back to Switzerland.

Wonderful place. Great staff. Would go back in a heartbeat. Not to be missed. (If you are travelling on Interrail or Eurail the train to Lauterbrunnen you need to buy a ticket as it is not included). And town shuts down completely on a Sunday!

Loved staying with Alfred & Martha. They were very friendly and willing to help. Laundromat right next door. Incredible views. Must wear slippers, no shoes allowed. Highly recommend staying here!

The staff are welcoming and extremely helpful - Sabine & Stefan helped me plan a perfect day of mountain biking & were very understanding when I was forced to shorten my stay by a night. An ideal base for exploration, but very difficult to meet anyone, as the place is wildly popular among South Korean travellers (flags on the wall!) and English was very scarce during my stay.close

A very well-run, clean hostel with good kitchen and bathroom facilities. In a very beautiful location. I had a loft bed and woke every morning to views of a big waterfall and snow capped mountains- it was great!

The staff was not helpful (felt like I was bothering them). Their laptop can access the web but doesn't have the memory to sustain most email sites. Common area is the dining room, no T.V. On the positive side, near to the train station, room was large/clean with lovely balcony.

Brilliant location, amazing views from the balcony when the sun hits the snow topped mountains - very friendly staff and would return for those views anyday.

Lovely hostel, would stay here in a second if i had a travel buddy. Hard to meet people as most people are travelling in 2's or groups and not very social.

Alfred and Martha, the owners/managers, are the nicest couple ever! They made us feel welcome and at home! This is a wonderful place to stay in the beautiful Swiss Alps. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay.

We received a very warm welcome from Marta, the resident warden. It was pleasent to relax in the garden following a hard days walking. The hostel was very clean with good washing facilities. We didn't use the kitchen but it appeared to be well equipped.

The hostel is located right in the middle of mountains. On a clear day you can see Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau tops. In terms of cleaniness and staff this is the best hostel I have ever visited. Thanks to Alfred and Martha for the making the stay a permanent imprint in memory.

Only a few negatives - If you choose to pay for their breakfast it is small and expensive and there are no lockers in the dorms. We would certainly stay there again if we pass through that way again.close

We had a gorgeous room with a balcony, and an overhand that sheilded us from the afternoon rain storms. Everything was clean, including the shared bathroom. We didn't see a whole lot of the staff, but when we did, they were very nice & helpful. We would definitely recommend this place!...

Very close to the station. Clean too. No private lockers though. It was interesting that they put all the Asians in the same room...which I thought was good. :)

Martha and Arnold are awesome. The hostel is great, clean and in a perfect location. Our only complaint was that we wanted to stay longer but they were booked out. Make sure you come to Lauterbrunnen and stay here!

There are many Koreans staying in this hostel so it's decorated in an asian style. Everyone was doing outdoor activities so the common room emptied out pretty early in the evening
