In our LAKE LODGE, a classic Swiss chalet right on Lake Brienz, we offer affordable accommodations in a total of 20 family-friendly twin, double, four-bed, or six-bed rooms.

It's a great place when traveling on a budget. Everything was great but it could use a little more lighting in the rooms. Great view, beds were comfy in the staff was great!

Located in Lungern, 7.5 miles from Giessbachfälle, Kunst- und Naturfreundehaus Brünig provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Value stay in a very expensive country right off the train stop. Booked last minute and was greeted without problems and given instructions on where my room was. Lovely 2 bed room so we did not have to share a room with others. Only shared bathroom facilities down the hall, which is more than fine. A lovely dining area is available to purchase coffee and breakfast if you please.

Only 0.9 mi from the ski elevators, this youth hostel is located in Grindelwald. The sun terrace and the lovely breakfast room have beautiful views of the Bernese Alps. Packed lunches are available.

The staff or some of the most amazing people I've met, very nice and very accommodating and exceptional food. And the view of the mountain Alps from my room was perfect, It will be my official stay next time I go back to Grindlewald. Thank you staff for allowing me to have such a nice time. Hope you all take care, from your friend Jake!

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
