I had a great stay at Essential by Dorint Interlaken. Near train station makes travel easy and modern clean room is a plus. Breakfast was good and friendly staff added to the experience. What makes it unique it is conveniently located near shops, supermarket and restaurants. Some rooms have limited views and bit too warm but overall it is worth staying. Would surely recommend.

The room was a Mountain View except you can see a parking lot and the train station was right next to our room so it stayed loud. The room was too hot and we had a very hard time sleeping. You can open the window but it’s almost all covered with a metal decoration so no air flow really gets in. Would not stay again. It is a nice hotel with great breakfast.

Its located indeed on the platform of the main train station. For me this was great as I could just get down take a random train in any direction and come back to the room without much exertion.
