Overview
Set in the traditional village of Wilderswil, close to Interlaken, the Hotel Bären is a charming property with almost 300 years of history. Once a welcoming tavern for passing travellers, today it blends authentic Swiss character with warm hospitality. Its cream façade, green shutters and distinctive bear statue offer a fitting introduction to this historic hotel.
Inside, traditional Alpine style creates a cosy and inviting atmosphere, with wood-panelled walls, rustic furnishings and soft neutral tones throughout. The Bärenstübli restaurant showcases the flavours of the region, serving hearty Swiss dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients, including cheese made from the milk of the hotel's own cows.
Reaching the slopes is easy thanks to the train from Wilderswil to Grindelwald, with the scenic journey taking around 25 minutes. Guests also benefit from discounted ski storage at Grindelwald Terminal, making it simple to travel to and from the mountains without carrying your equipment.

About Interlaken
Stay in the peaceful village of Wilderswil and enjoy easy access to both Interlaken and the Jungfrau Ski Region. Just a short train ride from the slopes in Grindelwald and the shops, cafés and attractions of Interlaken, it's an ideal base for combining skiing with sightseeing.
Interlaken offers a lively alternative to a traditional ski resort, with lakeside scenery, historic streets, museums, restaurants and shopping. Winter also brings the bonus of lower prices than many Swiss mountain resorts, making it a great-value choice.
A 25-minute train journey takes you to the Eiger Express gondola, giving access to 211km of skiing across the Jungfrau Ski Region. After a day on the slopes, enjoy traditional après-ski in Grindelwald or try something different with a floating fondue or raclette experience on Lake Brienz. If you're planning a visit to Jungfraujoch, discounted railway tickets are available with lift passes of three days or more.
