Welcome to Interlaken.
Stay at Backpackers Villa, the Original, est. 1998!

This hostel was very nice. Everyone was very friendly and the use of lockers before and after I checked in and out was great so I didn’t have to haul my luggage around on my travel days

This is hands-down the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Incredible views up the valley and all around Interlaken. Very friendly and helpful staff and an all right breakfast, but solid for a hostel. The only single thing that could be improved is adding curtains to the beds for privacy.

Good hostel in terms of facilities and staff, but not very social. Lots of families and not many young people. So, anyone who is looking for a social hostel, i do not recommend this place

Very nice stay, expensive but worth it considering the good facilities. Less young people than expected, but it worked out really well.

So clean! They had so many staff members come through and scrub the place down at 10am everyday. There is a massive kitchen facility with enough of everything so during the kitchen rush time you can still cook.Breakfast and free coffee was a major plus for trying to do Switzerland on a budget. We also had the added bonus of a balcony which was so nice to sit out on and enjoy the sun!

It has more of a hotel vibe. There were families staying in this hostel with their children. Not very social. However, the comfort aspect is 10/10. The place is very clean and new. The kitchen is huge and there are several common areas. The free breakfast was also really good. I would stay here again!
