Top Interlaken Hotel Reviews

Hotel Harder Minerva

Hotel Harder Minerva

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed there to run the Jungfrau Marathon. The location is a 2 minute walk to the start line. Rooms were small, but clean. No AC but opening the windows and the fan in the room was sufficient. There was very little in the way of furniture, like dressers or night stands. Our luggage was our dresser. Also, no in room refrigerator. Breakfast was great! Scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly everyday, with fresh bread, meats and cheeses. This was a fantastic affordable option for a stay in Interlaken."
