So About Interlaken
Interlaken
is a small city in the Bernese Highlands Region of central Switzerland. Located
between two Alpine Lakes (Brienzersee and Thunersee), Interlaken is
a popular base camp for outdoor sports and travel
in the surrounding Bernese Oberland Alps. Interlaken has beautiful scenery and it
serves as a good base to discover the neighbouring valleys, mountains and
lakes,
So about the hostel
Balmer's is the oldest hostel in Switzerland and is one that travelers from all over the world come to, again and again. The hostel is a base for people doing all types of extreme sports including,
snowboarding, skiing, sky-diving, canyoning,
rock-climbing, mountain biking, and paragliding, or if you're on a budget climbing a hill that turns out to be a
mountain.
Balmer's is connected to the Metro bar, which is a popular
place for travelers and locals. But the
main attraction is the staff, they are great group who made us feel so welcome.
We were blown away by the location of the hostel, surrounded by some of the best scenery that we have ever seen, but once again the thing that touched us the most was the welcome we received from the staff. Everyone of them was fantastic and made our stay at Balmer's incredible. We will definitely be visiting this hostel again in the future and can't wait to sample some more of the Interlaken hospitality.

So about the Art
Balmer's is based in a traditional Swiss house and the art
that was already there has a traditional feel, we wondered if they would want
to keep to that, but the owner 3rd generation of the Balmer's family, wanted
something fresh and funky.
We decided to paint the area next to the kitchen and
common area with life-sized images holding the beautiful mountains surrounding
the area and a traditional Swiss house.
