I stayed here only for one night with a friend. The room was as described, the mountain view was astonishing. The hotel is located in a quiet and sleepy village, a little local shop is 2 minutes from the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We were only in Switzerland for a couple of days as part of a larger trip but the Hotel Bären was ideally located to explore the Interlaken region and for hiking around Kandersteg. The views from our room were stunning and the area was quiet and relaxing. It is preferable to have a car when visiting as the hotel is 15 minutes or so up a relatively twisty road. The staff were friendly, check in/out was straightforward and the breakfast was really good!

It was dirty, there was a bug in the bed, as well as many flies and moths in the room, there was no one at the desk whenever we needed someone, the staff was not helpful when we could get ahold of them, and the shower head wouldn’t stay up on the rack so it would just shoot water everywhere.

The view from our room is beautiful, but you better have car to go the hotel. Parking is 3CHF/day. Breakfast is okay. The room already renovated. Self check-in, the key already in an envelope with your name. Very easy.

Great property, breakfast included and 4 chf per night for parking. Great breakfast and views are breathtaking from the room. As property were old and under construction, there was bit mess around and no fans or AC. We left windows open with lights off so no bees or insects visit us. However, we enjoyed best mountain views with easy parking and great variety of breakfast.

Charmigt och mysigt hotell

Så otroligt mysigt och charmigt hotell. Min man och jag fick en stor svit. Frukosten var väldigt god och bra. Fick en känsla av att personalen inte ville ha så mycket kontakt med gästerna. Bra parkering. Men vi är nöjda och kan varmt rekommendera.
