Built in 1897, this chalet is everything you love about Switzerland and more. Recently renovated with an eclectic mix of antique and contemporary furnishings and artwork, this luxury boutique guesthouse in Switzerland combines a juxtaposition of vintage and modern themes that celebrate the old and new.
Designed as an intimate accommodation with the amenities of a hotel, the concept was developed by an entrepreneur couple with journalistic and hotel backgrounds who bought the property when it was a private residence. Smartly reimagined to accommodate multiple guests, there are now eight rooms (four en-suite), three with views of the Jungfrau range and gardens, one with a private garden entrance and the remaining with lovely views. The northern rooms face the Harder while the southern rooms face the Jungfrau.
The three ground floor parlors are equipped with cozy sofas and armchairs, multiple tables/workings desks and library where you can cuddle up in front of the fireplace. There are also two spacious verandas, a covered terrace and lovely gardens to roam in and admire the views.
The owners have also opened an on-site shop of curated design products, books and items from the house and their travels for purchase.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Wifi throughout. Bathrobes and slippers. Housekeeping, parking.
AROUND
A beloved and storied destination, the picturesque village of Interlaken was a favorite of many influential artists including Byron, Schubert and Goethe.
Nestled into the Bernese Oberland valleys of central Switzerland between the sparkling Thun and Brienz lakes, the main village is set along the banks of the Aare River. This quiet neighbourhood is just a five minute walk from the town's famous "Höhematte", the central meadow, and the beautiful castle grounds where you'll enjoy amazing views of the Jungfrau and Eiger alpine ranges.
The perfect spot for hiking treks or skiing in the mountains, the town itself has several cultural spots not to be missed. Kunsthaus is the town's ambitious hub of artistic expression, with internationally acclaimed exhibitions, concerts and events. The Kulturgarage, a multifaceted platform for arts and events in a former garage also includes artists' workshops as well as a vintage shop.
Several excellent cafes, shops and restaurants are all within reach with a multifaceted range of culinary choices, a local nightlife scene and a small town vibe.
