No8 Boutique Hotel - Self Check IN

Hotel is a 10-15mins walk from Interlaken West station. Surrounding has quite a number of cafes, restaurants and souvenir shops. It is also in a scenic part of Interlaken where you can see the mountains and the blue waters in the stream which makes for great photos. You can also spot para gliders too. If you walk along the lake you can reach Interlaken Ost station in about 20mins or so. Quite a nice walk along the river! The hotel itself is 3-storey. Everything is pretty much self service and there is no reception/staff around - you key in a code to enter the main entrance, and there is a desktop/tablet for you to check in yourself. There is a small luggage room for you to leave your luggage inside. There is also a small common pantry with some basic electrical appliances like kettle and fridge for guests. There is no lift and you have to carry your luggage up the spiral staircase. The room itself is small, clean and simple - just a bed, some hangers and a toilet. There is no TV. Hotel left a toblerone chocolate on the bed as a gift for us which is cute. Also found out that the owner owns a cafe around the corner (called “Spatz”) and we were given a coffee voucher which was nice. We needed some help with check in and we went to the cafe to look for the owner for help, and he kindly helped us.

We booked a ‘Quadruple/Family Room’ but the reality was completely different and unsafe. On arrival, check-in was confused, the contact number for staff didn’t work, and we were placed on the top floor with no lift — impossible for a family with a child and senior. The room was cramped, poorly equipped, and most concerning, had exposed electrical wires sparking over the bunk beds. The fan also failed repeatedly. These are clear safety hazards and not what was advertised. Conditions were so unsuitable that we had to leave early and find alternative accommodation, cutting short our stay. This property fails basic safety standards and misrepresents what it offers.

Charming hotel and very clean. Excellent ambience and location. Great rooftop area. We also visited Spatz, the hotel owner’s bar and coffee shop, and the staff were very friendly and helpful with suggestions for the area. Highly recommend.

The hotel was ok. Abience was not very pleasent. Room was little congested. But there are no elevators so found it difficult to carry luggage upstairs. We were a group of 8 out of which 6 people were 60+ and hence found it difficult to climb the stairs up and down every now and then.

Truly loved this place! Obviously not the frills of a hotel but perfect for sleeping when you are exploring all day and don't need extras. Loved the attention to details! Clean, quiet, well decorated, and amazing location. Water view from our window was a storybook picture! The owner also has the coffee bar/restaurant which was our favorite cafe of our 10 day trip! Amazing coffee, food, and people!

We came here late at night, so the auto check-in was great. The building is very nice, very nicely restored and well kept. The room we booked was a bit small but nice and clean. We had some drinks downstairs at the bar and the bartender even moved her car so we could park next to the building. We had a great night sleep and time overall. We will definitely be back
