What guests think
At Baeren Hotel, The Bear Inn, travelers highlight a charming, very old Swiss building with cozy mountain views and easy bus or train access to Interlaken, alongside dated, sometimes small rooms and bathrooms, creaky floors, and no elevator.
Breakfast is widely praised, and many guests also enjoy the on-site restaurant and half-board dinners. Service is generally friendly and accommodating, though a few report curt restaurant staff and limited late-evening support. Rooms are usually clean but basic, with thin walls, some hard or pull-out beds, low shower heads in places, and occasional maintenance issues. Expect a characterful base in a quiet village, memorable views, standout breakfasts, and trade-offs like many stairs and possible parking fees.

Nice stay at a Swiss chalet with rustic charm. Stayed in a clean, attic room with a scenic balcony. Electrical outlets are few and on the older side, weak hair dryer and small shower space, and single, soft bed, but it was comfortable and homey. The fan was very helpful in dispersing the summer heat. The water kettle was a nice amenity, but the breakfast spread was the best part of the stay, everything was freshly made, plentiful and delicious. Just beware of the stairs if you have a lot of luggage. Location is a 10 min walk from Wilderswil train station, or 2 stops on 105/111 bus. Neighborhood is very quiet and safe.

Zentral in Wilderswil gelegenes Hotel, eher kleines Zimmer mit Balkon und Bergblick. Das Mobiliar ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, v.a. im Bad, aber es war sauber. Unkomplizierter Check-In und Check-Out, Parkplätze am Hotel (kostenpflichtig). Schönes Frühstücksbuffet.

This is a traditional Swiss style hotel in a village just outside of Interlaken. The location is stunning, with mountains visible from the neighbourhood, and there are good transport links to Interlaken with a regular bus service and frequent trains. You get a travel card when checking in, so we used this transport to get around. There is plenty of parking at the hotel, it cost 10 CHF a day. Our rooms were comfortable, albeit a little dated. There is no lift so we lugged our suitcase up 3 sets of stairs to the room. There is a kettle, but coffee/milk is extra. However the accommodation was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly too. We went for the half board option, and the evening meal was really good with a tasty selection of local dishes, plus a children’s menu. Breakfast was continental, although we found that by 9AM the food choice had become a bit more limited.

The Baren exceeded all my expectations. It was cozy, clean, and the staff were so accommodating. I cannot recommend this place enough. We also enjoyed using the sauna facilities and the breakfast was great. We came a little late one day and the server made us more eggs and bacon fresh. Beautiful area as well close to a bus stop.

There are many stairs to climb as the description notes. Maybe a few more stairs than you might think. This was an older property with charming appeal. Though was fairly quiet even with older floors and a group of teens. The staff were friendly and helpful. Water pressure in the shower was perfect. Breakfast offered a variety of choices.

Hmmm what to say lol. We chose Hotel Baren because it was an “affordable” hotel close to Interlaken. If you need the bus it takes about 15 minutes to get to Interlaken. Bonus the bus was free and the stop is close by. The building is very old so the bathroom is a retrofit, small and adequate. The sink was in the room. No elevator. No coffee or tea or kettle but breakfast was included so that was nice. The room was cold in early October. An extra blanket for the bed helped. All in all it was okay.

Stayed for 3 nights while visiting the Jungfrau region. The hotel is rustic but super cute! Parking is on site. The staff were very helpful and patient. The included breakfast was lovely and the coffee was great! We opted to purchase the 1/2 board (dinner) and we were very impressed! It was a 3 course meal with several choices (including vegetarian and local dishes) at a very reasonable price. The only negative is the walls are very thin and the people in the rooms next to us were loud. We will definitely be back!

Parking is available for off-season, however I can only assume parking is a nightmare during high season. Beds are European twins, so small, don't expect larger. The room are heated, almost too well but you can really enjoy the fresh air by opening windows and balcony. The view is worth every cent.

We spend two nights at the Bear Inn, we got a top floor room which was exceptional because we had a beautiful view of the mountains, the room is spacious but the bathroom is small, this is a vintage building so floors are wood and if you walk you hear the wood cracking, the 105 bus leaves you right next to the hotel or otherwise you can walk 10 minutes to the train station. Breakfast is ok

4 of us stayed only one night. All 4 are adults. Possibly the hotel assumed that it was 2 adults and 2 children staying. The two sharing the “pull out” bed, I being one of them, didn’t sleep more than 2 hours due to the rock hard bed. Please don’t assume a room for 4 people is not 4 adults.

This hotel has charm. I knew that it was not modern and has no elevators. I wanted to stay somewhere that did not look like very hotel. If you like certain accommodations this place may not be for you. I loved its old charm and country feel. The breakfast was great. A buffet with a variety of foods. The room was rustic and the bathroom worked very well even if it was not remodeled. The waterflow for the shower was strong. There is no A/C. We just opened the window if needed. We traveled early September so it wasn't very hot. There is no front desk after 9pm. If you need some kind of service after hours you would have to wait until the morning. We enjoyed this hotel. It had that traditional Switzerland charm.

Everyone was very nice and helpful. We had a room with balcony on the 3rd floor but because the hotel is 300 yr old there was no elevator. We did get help from a staff member to take the bags up and down. Stayed 2 nights and ate at their restaurant, both breakfast and dinner were good. Very small village, train station was close by.

Room was cozy and had great views. Quiet town away from tourists. Breakfast buffet included. Nice restaurant for lunch and dinner. The only downside was the lack of friendliness among staff, especially the evening waitress who was snippy from the start. The evening receptionist was also a little cold and the morning staff did not acknowledge us at all both mornings.

Location
Quiet Wilderswil setting near Interlaken with scenic mountain views. Bus and train links are close, and several mention an easy base for the region; some note a 10–20 minute walk to the station.

Nice stay at a Swiss chalet with rustic charm. Stayed in a clean, attic room with a scenic balcony. Electrical outlets are few and on the older side, weak hair dryer and small shower space, and single, soft bed, but it was comfortable and homey. The fan was very helpful in dispersing the summer heat. The water kettle was a nice amenity, but the breakfast spread was the best part of the stay, everything was freshly made, plentiful and delicious. Just beware of the stairs if you have a lot of luggage. Location is a 10 min walk from Wilderswil train station, or 2 stops on 105/111 bus. Neighborhood is very quiet and safe.

This is a traditional Swiss style hotel in a village just outside of Interlaken. The location is stunning, with mountains visible from the neighbourhood, and there are good transport links to Interlaken with a regular bus service and frequent trains. You get a travel card when checking in, so we used this transport to get around. There is plenty of parking at the hotel, it cost 10 CHF a day. Our rooms were comfortable, albeit a little dated. There is no lift so we lugged our suitcase up 3 sets of stairs to the room. There is a kettle, but coffee/milk is extra. However the accommodation was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly too. We went for the half board option, and the evening meal was really good with a tasty selection of local dishes, plus a children’s menu. Breakfast was continental, although we found that by 9AM the food choice had become a bit more limited.

The Baren exceeded all my expectations. It was cozy, clean, and the staff were so accommodating. I cannot recommend this place enough. We also enjoyed using the sauna facilities and the breakfast was great. We came a little late one day and the server made us more eggs and bacon fresh. Beautiful area as well close to a bus stop.

Utrolig venligt personale som straks tilbød parkering i lukket garage, da det regnede kraftigt og vi var kørende i en gammel veteran bil. Morgenmaden var god. Der var masser af hyggelige steder at sidde omkring hotellet og alle med den mest fantastiske udsigt. Generelt en perfekt beliggenhed.

Dining
Breakfast is frequently praised for quality and variety. The on-site restaurant and half-board dinners earn positive reviews, though a few found dishes overcooked or pricey and noted reduced breakfast selection late in the morning.

Stayed for 3 nights while visiting the Jungfrau region. The hotel is rustic but super cute! Parking is on site. The staff were very helpful and patient. The included breakfast was lovely and the coffee was great! We opted to purchase the 1/2 board (dinner) and we were very impressed! It was a 3 course meal with several choices (including vegetarian and local dishes) at a very reasonable price. The only negative is the walls are very thin and the people in the rooms next to us were loud. We will definitely be back!

We had a good size room with a bathtub. We were upgraded to a balcony with a excellent view of the mountain. Restaurant options in the area are sparse. The dinner dining at the hotel is good, but expensive. The breakfasts are excellent.

Enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was great! You are not happy to find out that they charged for parking in their own parking lot because we did not book directly with them. They said there is an 18 Swiss franc charge for parking when booked through Hotels.com or other online booking services

Lugn och trevlig hotell som ligger ganska bra om man har egen bil. Frukost saknar all typ av färska grönsaker tyvärr. Mkt trevliga personal men de saknar allmän info om vad som finns i närheten. Beställde medium stekt kött men fick den well done. Valde att checka ut tidigare än planerat.

Our second stay there (prior May 2024) but warm (July) and no a/c or stairs so need to take that into consideration. Room was small and overlooked noisy parking lot- even noisy after 11 PM with windows open due to no a/c. Would not stay there again unless during shoulder/cooler season when windows are closed. Quaint 320-year old chalet hotel, so that was appealing.

Wilderswil is an adorable town in close proximity to Interlaken, which makes the hotel an ideal base for exploring. The hotel itself is beautiful. It retains much of its coaching inn heritage. Breakfast is delicious, with a wide variety of offerings. One thing to note: because it is a heritage property close to the mountains, it retains heat. In the recent heatwave, this made our east-facing room rather hot, even with the fan, so we spent our evenings walking around town to cool off.
