Great place with great view. The breakfast was very good. The rooms are clean as well as the bathroom and the toilet. It is a good idea to bring towels (or you can rent from there). The staff is great. We spent a great night at this place.

It is really lovely, the staff are amazing. It would be perfect year round. Would recommend staying here and we’d love to come back. We really liked that it was a walk away from the town centre. (Or cab ride) there’s a ski lift really close by, would be amazing in the winter!

We were so excited to stay at Walters again. This time with our kids. We came here 25 years ago and loved the place. The spacious large room with a good-sized table, the shared kitchen to cook in, and the amazing breakfast for a small extra fee. The breakfast is so large you can use it for breakfast and lunch, and it is brought to your room whatever time you order it for!! We loved having it with the hot chocolate!! 😍 And so close to the bus stop and a short walk anyway to Interlaken Ost if you don't take the bus (only one stop). Whilst it's charm has not changed, our kids loved the high-tech in the rooms, with wireless charging, bedside chargers and power access. Spacious shared bathroom. You can also wash and dry here for an extra fee. We were sad to hear Walter passed away in January, but so glad his son is still carrying on this wonderful service and access to cheaper accommodation to those who want to enjoy the majestic Swiss alps, God's handiwork at its finest! We love this place, and can highly recommend it! Thank you so much Morsel (sorry if I spelt that wrong), we know how hard you work to provide this service to us budget conscious travellers 7 days a week. Thank you so much. 😊🙏

One step away from Interlaken Ost station. Big Coop nearby! Free breakfast is sufficient for me with bread toast, coffee, yoghurt, cheese, cereals, etc. I arrived at 1:30am but they have given instruction to just collect room key. Balcony room is amazing with view of the mountains!! Able to keep my luggages is amazing.

All hostels in Grindelwald

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Henryk is a very welcoming host. The dormitory was really clean, and it is a great place to stay 15mins away from the city centre which makes the position of the hostel perfect - at a walkable distance from the centre, and at a quiet neighbourhood.

    Great views. Can even eat outside on the balcony overlooking the snowy peaks. Lots of opportunities to mingle and chat with other guests. Away from the hustle-bustle of the town, but still within walking distance. I only booked here because the Interlaken Youth Hostel was booked, but I'm so glad it was, as this was a much nicer place.

    So zen, comforting and cozy with panoramic views of the mountains. I am a girl traveling alone and it was the perfect safe stopover for me after a 14 mile hike. Staff was so friendly and helpful. It felt like they really wanted you there and cared about your stay. Hostel was clean and very comfortable. Hostel is about a 10 minute walk outside of Grindelwalds main strip, which gives it the calming charm I was in desperate need of. Breakfast was delicious too, prepared me for another long hike the next day.

    Amazing views from the hostel. Breakfast was very enjoyable. I felt safe and slept reasonably well. I was surprised how diverse the age groups were of the other holiday makers.

    Breakfast was delicious and had a great selection (and vegan/vegetarian options too). The staff were incredible helpful, and gave us great suggestions for hikes to do. The room was comfy and the hostel was quiet. The location was great as the bus stop was just outside and we were right next to the train station, which was convenient. The lodge’s restaurant was also good for a quick cheap eat. Also seemed to have lots of communal areas, pool table, etc if you wanted things to do.
