The staff at this location, along with the food at the cafe, make it my best hotel stay in my 7 days in Switzerland! Small and right next to Old Town it's a perfect spot for a quiet stay. The staff were super friendly and gave great recommendations. The soup and salad "snack" at 4 PM was one of the highlights of my trip, so delicious! The breakfast that is included has incredible scrambled eggs and yummy breads and jams. Small room but it was just me, so it was perfect. The only thing I noted was there were no cups in the bathroom, but it was quickly fixed. The view in the morning can not be beat! Highly recommend!

Not a pleasant stay

The floor is a bit sticky, breakfast has very limited choice, and it did not provide the slipper for room use. This brought very inconvenient to us as the floor is sticky and not comfortable to walk bare foot.

The property is in a perfect location, in walking distance to everything. The staff is responsive. The room is clean, and the common area. Breakfast buffet is good. Our room has the mountain and river view. That was a treat. Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone planning to visit Interlaken.

We enjoyed our stay in Aarburg Hotel and Cafe. The staff are friendly and the room is spacious with a view of the Aare river. The breakfast buffet for guests is delicious. We also enjoyed coming to the cafe downstairs for lunch. The location is great . We are able to walk to the train station and also walk around Interlaken for shopping. We loved our stay and we will want to stay here again next time.

Owned and managed by a husband and wife. The hotel sits on top of a cafe (also owned and managed by this couple). The hotel Is old but clean. The hospitality is a bit chilly. Services are basic. It’s very very simple accommodations. The female owner appears to have a strong disdain for guests. Coffee was delicious.

Very friendly staff, great breakfast, coffee and food options for lunch. Also a convenient location to Interlaken West. Room itself was very cozy and clean. Having a few more furniture might have made it even better. Entrance was little tricky with steep steps so could be difficult for older people.

Our stay at The Aaburg was memorable. The staff were very supportive and accomodating. Even after hours, they were able to help. The only thing, it is bit of a walking from the downtown, or main street and food options / tranist bus stop. If travelling with luggage without a car is going to be a bit challenging at times.

Wow! We're on day 2 of our stay here and I just had to leave a review so I don't forget later... Lol. If there's any change after we leave in a few days, I'll update the review. This hotel is great!! The location is incredible and our room 201 overlooks the river and stunning mountains all around! Beautiful view. Very clean room. The whole hotel seems renovated, from the large wide spiral stairwell that's beautifully tiled, to the room itself with its wooden floor and beautiful bathroom tiles. The room is a nice size with plenty of room for your things (unless you travel with 8 full size suitcases. In that case you may have a problem 😄). The bathroom is small but wonderful. There's actually a medicine cabinet with a mirror! Can't remember the last time I had a medicine cabinet in a hotel room! The shower is nice and hot and has a raised ledge so water stays inside! *They don't provide conditioner so take into account and bring your own. Breakfast is nice. Great bread, good eggs, great coffee, and all kinds of other things. The ladies that run the place are SO nice. Very responsive via email, accommodating, friendly... What more can you ask for?? Bottom line - great location, super clean, looks newly renovated, good breakfast... Would highly recommend!
