About

You'll be in your element thanks to the exciting mix of leisure activities: bathing fun in the shimmering, turquoise waters of Lake Brienz, walks along the lakeside promenade or through Brunngasse ('most beautiful alleyway in Europe'), a view of the Alpine panorama from the oldest steam cogwheel railway in the world or from the summit of the Brienz Rothorn. How about a journey through the centuries at the Ballenberg Open-air Museum? Or would you rather watch a traditional wood carver at work? The family-friendly hostel in a great location on the lakeside is the ideal starting point for any number of excursions and also an extremely pleasant retreat with plenty of space for fun and games.

Beautiful location and lovely staff, but the dorm was awful. No photos shown of the dorms online. Mattresses were on the floor, crammed less than 20cm apart with no barriers or privacy. It felt like a sleepover with strangers, minus any comfort. Would not stay again, totally misleading and not worth the price.

I had doubts when I made the booking online but the place turn out amazing! Staff was very friendly and everuthing worked smoothly. Breakfast included in the price. The hostel was clean and had good facilities. Lot of activities like paddle boarding, games, table tennis, barbecue… Location by the lake was my favourite. Also close to the train station and easy travel to common attractions like jungfrau. Good value for your money.
