Whoever said it was a long walk to the main drag from The River Lodge is lazy.or nuts.It is nice if you dont want to spend a lot of money and it is across the river from the train station. They provide free linens, but offer you a bigger blaket for four euros if it is cold outside and you didnt bring your own.the internet, although expensive by european standards, is still cheaper than anything you will find in town. Oh, and the grovery store is right next to the train station. Have fun!

This place is pretty clean, and a short walk from Interlaken Ost. It\'s only about a ten minute walk to the town center, and the people who work here are helpful. . . Though the operating hours are a little bizarre. Ex: closing from noon until 3 in the afternoon one day. Be prepared to put a deposit down on any dishes you use, and to pay extra for sheets.

reminded me of summer camp- small rooms, walking outside to bathroom/shower, picnic tables under a tent... room & bathrooms were clean tho! walls very thin, people next door were not loud but i could hear them clear as a bell. reception hrs suck: closed 12 -3:30 & close for nite at 7pm!

Really small rooms - you wouldn't want 4 people with packs in there! Everything was pretty basic - if you're really only looking for a bed then River Lodge is fine. Being next to the river with deck chairs to recline in - if the weather is good : ) Reception closing at 6pm was a bit of a pain when I wanted to check my emails that night...

This place is awesome! It is right on the river, the best view possible! A great place to relax on the lounge chairs. The only bummer is that reception closes fairly early. Rooms are a little small but with the location, who cares?!

Perfect for people who want to relax and enjoy the amazing view, but a little far from the party scene (15 or 20 min walk)

we thought the location was amazing! staff very friendly and helpful although the reception was closed for a few hours during the day which was awkward at times if u needed things. but apart from that had an excellent stay and met some good people there. would deffo recomend it to other travellers.
