We loved our stay! It was perfect for us to be out of the busy areas. Beautiful place! The staff Alexandria and Miguel were amazing. They were polite, attentive and friendly. We enjoyed their kindness and attention to details. They make it an extra special place to stay.
We had a lovely breakfast, with nice views. Staff are really friendly and helpful. We stayed for one night and we loved it. Best views frm room with balcony.
A beautiful property overlooking Lake Thun. The dining area has nice big windows with a beautiful view of the Alps. The staff were very polite and helpful.
It was an amazing stay and I loved the place
All good.
Disappointing, far from 4 *
Very disappointing. It’s not a 4 star hotel at all. Mattress in one bed sloped, the other dipped in the middle, this meant our backs seized up when we woke. A lady kindly moved us but we ended up with a room without balcony, which we had booked. Breakfast disappointing. You are given a nespresso machine, kettle, sugar and creamer but no teabags or coffee, apparently you have to buy them. Received better hospitality elsewhere in Switzerland.
Really nothing to do within walking distance aside from the panoramic bridge. Restaurant was nice and open late. Hotel comfortable and clean.
We love the location. It’s right next to the bus stop. Staff was so friendly and our room was fantastic. Love that they provide electric fans, as it was particularly hot during our stay. Highly recommend staying here!
The property was nice, but definitely not a 4 star hotel. More like a 3 star. For some reason the first day after we arrived, they didn't clean the room. After we requested for them to clean the room the day after that, they just made the bed, and changed the towels. However, they didn't replenish the soap, nor the toilet paper, nor did they clean the toilet. The property has a lot of potential, but the staff really needs to get their act together.
Helpful, polite staff and well situated hotel.
Older property: musty smell as you enter the room and lighting is poor. Staff is friendly. Mountains with lake view in the morning is very refreshing.
.
Views and services 👍👍👍👍👍
The staff was exceptional! They offered dining at late hours of the evening, which was helpful when we got in late and there weren’t many options in the area. The bus comes right to the hotel and took about 40 minutes with stops to get to Interlaken. We couldn’t get any bikes from the property and there weren’t any bike rental shops in the area so we did have to travel by bus to go on adventures around the area.
Great hotel
Excellent hotel to stay when visiting the mountain range in Switzerland.
Great Location for One Night Stay!
Hotel is right next to bus stop that goes to Thun, which is perfect if you need the convenience of travel. Staff is very friendly and assisted me when they couldn’t find my booking or work the safe. I dock a couple of stars because the room is slightly dated (no free outlets to plug into next to the beds) and there isn’t someone always at the front desk to help (but perhaps because I went off season). This place gets the job done for a night, and the views from the patio/balcony are just lovely!
Phenomenal views from this delightful gem
It is always hard to tell what a hotel is Actually like from pics, but this hotel was a delightful surprise that exceeded our expectations. The views really do look like their promo pics - direct frontal view of snowy peaks. The family room was a good large size, as was the bathroom (rare in Europe!). Staff was flawlessly nice, helpful & professional, good breakfast, serviceable onsite restaurant, and best of all - Gorgeous friendly house cat who lavishes affection on all guests :) We'd definitely stay again.
Wonderful stay , every thing wws excellent
Delicious breakfast,
Beautiful hotel up on a hilltop with beautiful view. Lovely room with a balcony
Really amazing views! Staff was simply wonderful!! Thank you so much!!
Located in quiet hilltop village with magnificent view overlooking lake. Rooms clean and spacious. Restaurant menu limited but food well prepared. Best of all, staff were pleasant and accommodating. A pleasant respite from our Swiss travels.
Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful little town
I would like to know who rated this hotel at 4 stars? This is so misleading I passed over so many hotels that are 3 stars and I’m sure they will be better than this one because of the false rating. First thing you can’t sleep here because of the church bells that ring every hour, every half an hour and every 15 mins even after midnight. 2) there is no air conditioning we went in mid September and the room was so hot and we couldn’t open the windows because of the mosquitoes. 3) location wise it is very inconvenient and far from the main train stations, so be prepared to take a bus that comes hourly to go to interlaken Ost or Thun train stations, the bus ride is 55 mins with another bus change 4) every time we went down to have breakfast and we went early at 8 or before they were always out of everything and they blamed it on a group of tourists who ate and finished everything in the buffet. They should have prepared enough amount to everybody staying at the hotel 5) they didn’t refill any shampoo or soap 6) the only one good thing I liked about this place is the view which I couldn’t enjoy because the room was so hot so we couldn’t stay in our room to enjoy the view
Like the location and quietness. Room was nice setting with bedroom separated from other areas.
Amazing place to stay
This was an awesome place to stay. The staff were very friendly, rooms were very large amd breakfast was amazing. This is in a very cute town as well. I would definitely stay here again
Very average, staff very helpful and kind.
Was an okay stay :). Close to some easy and short trails.
I have travel all over the world and I have stayed at a lot of beach resorts and mountain resorts and this place is the best is elegant ,spacious, breathtaking views from my room , I really have no words to describe how mesmerized I am thank you Baren in Sigriswil
We love the property, but it was so hot even though we were up high. We asked for a fan, but they didn't have one or A/C
Very disappointed. They advertise as a 4-start hotel but it is 2-starts at best. No A/C I could not sleep at night. Very dirty and uncomfortable.
DO NOT Stay at this property if you want to SLEEP! When I booked this I knew it had a bell tower close by. I had no idea the bell tower chimed ALL night long. Plus it has a bus stop across the street from the hotel. Plus the restaurant is below so you get the noise from all of that. ON top of that they had a festival going that weekend down the street you could hear it with the windows shut. It went all night long. Then the drunks would come to the bus stop all night until 4:00-5:00 am. I complained at the front desk they did nothing to compensate us just apologize. Supposed to be family run never saw the owner. The front desk person worked at the front desk also worked in the restaurant. We ate one night in the restaurant. I asked for a glass of tap water. They charged me for a glass of tap water after all the problems we had. The morning after we had no sleep I complained and she said she had no idea what was going on down the street. That afternoon they said it was a festival and would be going on again that night. It happens every year at this time. I told them they should not book people staying in this hotel if they want to sleep or at least tell them it is going on when they book it. the next morning when we checked out I complained again. They offered nothing. I told them they should have payed me to stay here not me pay them for no sleep for two nights.
Awesome location
Noisy Nightmare at an Overpriced Hotel
Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ I recently had the misfortune of staying at Bären Sigriswil. As someone who paid over 400 CHF for a peaceful night's sleep, I can confidently say that this hotel failed to deliver on its basic promise. From the moment I checked in, it became evident that noise would be an ongoing issue during my stay. The hotel's location seemed to be a magnet for all things noisy. First and foremost, the walls of the hotel seemed to have paper-thin insulation, as I could hear every conversation and commotion taking place in the adjacent restaurant. The fact that the restaurant operated after 23:00 made matters even worse. Despite being exhausted, I was bombarded with the constant clamor of people chatting. To compound my frustration, the hotel's proximity to a nearby church became an additional source of annoyance. Instead of waking up to a peaceful morning you take part in the hit song bells of Nother Dame 🔔🔔🔔 I would strongly advise anyone seeking a peaceful stay to look elsewhere, as this hotel clearly fails to deliver on its promises of good night sleep.
The view was incredible. The staff was very friendly and fast. The laundry service was excellent. The water pressure and heat on the shower was the best I've experienced ever. It was advertised as a hotel room, but we got a suite with a kitchen, living room and balcony overlooking Lake Thun. (I don't know that'll always be the case, so call ahead). Sigriswil Panorama bridge is a 2 minute walk from here. The room came with a pass that gave us discounts to local attractions and included free bus fare. I would make a trip back just on account of this amazing hotel.
Very nice views and amazing breakfast included!
BEST VIEW AND BREAKFAST!
Best breakfast EVER. It was included for us and by far the best offerings we’ve ever had. The view in the breakfast room is breathtaking. We booked their small double room and still got a partial view, but they have so many beautiful room options. The only major downside (our fault) is that there is no where to eat after 9pm around here so eat before!!
the property was perfect for a family of three. The mountain/lake view was astonishing. There was a bus facility right from outside of the hotel which is super convenient to go about. I would totally recommend this to all.
Great location for some relaxation. Wonderful views and staff.
It was disappointing overall. The bathroom was very outdated as was the room in general. The rooms had two lamps. So at night time, we had to take the shade off the lamp to even see. Very dismal.
Great
Great place to stay and located close to many places
Great place for a getaway
Enjoyed my stay at the Baren Hotel. The room i had was very nice with a sitting area / kitchenette and a big balcony and amazing views.
Great views of Thun lake and good breakfast. Meanwhile, the price in low season is really worthwhile!
Nice view, the breakfast buffet is very good, staffs are friendly!
Location, view, friendliness, amenities. Exceeded my expectations
Mountain view. great location. Close to church hear it ring beautiful sounds. Restaurant served good food. Overall great. Will be back.
This hotel has amazing views! All the staff was super friendly and accommodating to all our questions and needs. Only regret is that we didn’t stay longer.
This is a special hotel in an very beautiful part of the world. The people that work in this hotel are gems. The church across the street is majestic. If you don’t like the bells close the windows.
Stop over break
A pleasant hotel, though a little thin on staff. Great views over lake and mountains if in the right room.
This hotel in nice quite area but not to the standards Like dogs moving in the lobby and inter rooms of hotel Amenities very poor Breakfast and staff are nice
Room and view from the terrace was very good. Nice village and surrounding.
Absolutely beautiful apartments and views! Staff are friendly and breakfast was good too.
Comfortable hotel .. good staff
Some.good and bad , but all over stay was.conforable and staff was helpfull Good: 1. Next to bus stop and bus run every 30 min during peak and 1 hr non peak. Card provided by hotel help you free travels betwEn Thin and Interlaken. 2. Chef was great and staff is very helpful 3. Family room with kitchen was plus Bad: 1. Room housekeeping was worst. After first night they put same towel on heating and balcony rail. Next day they chand and put towel.for 2 people.only in Family room. Thought when I went to reception they provided. But I believe this should be teken care at houskEping time. 2. Room service at extra price. Limited menu. 3. No hot breakfast . 4. No side table around the bed and no power something around, so you need to put charger in kitchen or near dining . 5. Kitchen and room was not prepared for 4 people, like 3 glass, two te mugs , 2 towels etc. Etc. I will rate this hotel 10 for the chef, staff and their warm welcome and response to queries. Housekeeping : 4 Confort : 7 Allover : 7
Room was very small and looking at cemetery. Was not very pleasant to stay in such a room.
The Baeren's location is great: right in the center of Sigriswil, a lovely resort town. The hotel offers a typical Swiss buffet breakfast included with the room, and also features a cozy Stuebli (bar/lounge) and restaurant. Unfortunately, our visit this year (2019) was not as pleasant as in some past years (we are repeat visitors, and have been familiar with the property in the early 1980s). When we visited the weather was quite hot, and the facility has no air conditioning. The level of service has declined somewhat, which is noticeable with the housekeeping and service in the Stuebli.
Beautiful location and great staff
Really enjoyed our stay. This is a lovely place. We especially appreciated Andrea who greeted and assisted us at the outdoor restaurant, at the front desk, and at breakfast. What a hard worker!
Clean and comfortable - no air con for summer stay
Clean and comfortable hotel. Clearly orientated around ski season. Mid summer, the lack of air conditioning was noticeable. There was a small fan provided. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Great balcony view
Beautiful views and a great place to walk around the local cemetery, school and high walking bridge. The hotel had large balcony with great views, beds were very plush and nice. Breakfast was good. I would stay here again.
Hotel advertise fitness and spa centee which we found out upon arrival that it was not included in the nightly price. Appreciated that the hotel provided free bus fare card, but it was not offered even after asking a out transportation and the bus schedule - ww had to specifically ask for it. Food was great feom the restaurant. Hotel was grungy for a 4 stat hotel...at best i would rate it 2.5
Fantastic Hotel!
This is a nice Hotel situated a bit out of the way but with fantastic views of lake Thun. Excellent breakfast of choices and dinner is the best! Excellent friendly staff. The rooms are lovely nice quiet wake up with a beautiful views of the mountains.
Great location.
Quaint, Sweet, Perfect!
We LOVED staying at Baeren Sigriswil! The room was cozy but large. The views were unbelievable and the village was just too cute. The staff was incredibly helpful and professional. The breakfast buffet was fantastic. The variety of food and drinks available made for the perfect start to the day. The restaurant downstairs was delicious and in the three days we ate there, we were never disappointed. With a bus stop right outside, transportation to other local villages and attractions was easy. I would recommend this location to anyone planning a trip to the Interlaken/Thun area!
Excellent location,, unrestricted views of all the mountains,, including top of the Europe,, and Thun Lake,, Suspension bridge only two minutes walk,, Bus stop right in front,, excellent free parking.. And rooms ?? Wonderful,, double size plus balcony,, Very friendly staff ,,
Nothing was explained at check in. We wanted to us the hot tub, didn’t know where it was. The ladies the next morning helped but the guy at the reception desk was not helpful at all. He literally said “here is your key, breakfast is at 7:30.” The view and the room is great. I’f you’re not looking for customer service and just a great room and view, this is a good place to be.
This hotel was perfectly located... Fantastic views the pictures don't do it justice.
Excellent hotel, staff, and location.
Incredible room, with amazing views over Lake Thun. Staff were attentive and very friendly. We weren't able to enjoy the Jacuzzi in our room as it was broken but we still had a bath which was nice.
Excellent view
Excellent view from room, very friendly staff
Would stay again!
The location is wonderful. The balcony and views were amazing! The attention to detail, such as blankets on the outdoor patio chairs was a nice welcome touch. My only complaints were the rooms had very thin walls and while the breakfast was nice, the woman over it was rude.
Nice place like it
Very nice place with good people in the hotel
The staff members were always pleasant and helpful.
Ok stay
See previous comment on problems at check in Self service breakfast no one explained anything choice ok but for price expected better Room a bit tired No Bath receptnot always manned and not very cheerful Upside bed very compfy good location parking and wifi 7/10
Nice hotel little hospitality
Took three attempts to get someone to come check us in. Restaurant and bar were closed and after a 6 hour drive we were dying for something to drink. We had a junior suite overlooking the mountains. There was a kitchen that was for demonstration purposes only, not even a working fridge. No air con so in 25+ degree heat the room was too hot. The hotel is across from the village church which insists on bell ringing on the hour throughout the night so unless you’re a heavy sleeper you can’t leave the window open. Breakfast was also disappointing. No staff presence and the scrambled eggs were fishy. All in all ther is potential but significant improvements are required.
Beautiful View
Easily the best hotel we stayed at over the course of our trip in Europe. The hotel staff was very friendly and offered fantastic service throughout our stay. The view from the hotel beautifully overlooks the lake and mountains. The hotel is also in a convenient location, with the bus stop just outside. The restaurant is also a lovely place to have dinner at while viewing the Swiss countryside. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone needing to stay in the area, it was amazing.
Great hotel and staff is very helpful. We had a great time. Nice view of lake and mountains from junior suite.
Overall was ok. Nice location but I guess not a high season, no one was there in reception. abit expensive for this service
Great hotel, amazing location!
Great hotel in a super cute mountain village. Easily reached by bus from Thun. Loads of trekking path from your doorsteps!
Way better than the traditional Interlaken hotels
Outstanding........scenic location.......impeccable and friendly service........very roomy space and comfortable for the 3 of us......reception lady was adorable, welcoming and very helpful on local tips around sightseeing and transportation.....highly recommend over the traditional Interlaken area hotels.
Beautiful location
Perfect idyllic stay in the countryside. We got a free upgrade to a suit and the staff were very welcoming. The view from the hotel is second to none.
Lovely hotel with beautiful views over the lake
The hotel is modern with very comfortable stylish bedrooms. The view from our room over the lake and mountains beyond was amazing. Lovely to sit on our balcony and just take it all in.The staff were very friendly and helpful. The standard of cleanliness in the room and bathroom was excellent. Would definitely recommend!
A great place in the Interlochen area
A beautiful hotel in a beautiful little out-of-the-way town. The front desk was great - we had a late arrival and they had to stay late for us. Just a few minutes from Interlochen but much quieter and more scenic.
Traditional Swiss chalet style hotel
Traditional Swiss chalet style hotel. The room was much larger and modern than I expected. Great shower. Comfortable beds. Good breakfast. The dinner menu is a bit limited but the food quality is fine. The nearby church rings it's bell constantly. No good for light sleepers!
Hotel under construction!
We booked a 2 night stay at the hotel through Orbitz.com. There was no mention of on going construction on the 3rd floor. We stayed one night on the second floor, an upgrade according Stephanie. When we checked in, she said breakfast was served from 7-10AM, so we assumed it was part of our rate. Our room had a non functional kitchen. Refrigerator didn't work & sink didn't have plumbing. We slept comfortably until we were rudely awoken @ 7AM by construction team on the floor above us. My husband went downstairs to tell the hotel manager that we would checking out a day earlier because of the noise. We packed & checked out. They told us that we had reserved 2 nights we would be charged for them. Unbelievable! We argued for 2 hours, I called my credit card co. My husband called the police to make a report. Police were unable to assist us. The owner arrived after the police left. When we asked the owner his name & business card he refused to give it. They charged our credit card without our permission for the 2 days. Incredibly unethical! We left the hotel then went to the town's Info center to file a formal complaint against the hotel. We have traveled over 30 years & never come across a situation like this. Very disappointed travelers from San Francisco!
A pleasant stay
The room was very nice and the staff friendly and helpful
Very bad noisey hotel and unhelpful management
Hotel location is very bad because it is on busy road and opposite side is a church were the bell was ringing every hour .. The hotel is kind of old and the carpet is very stinky .. we couldn't sleep all night because of the noise and the smell .. the hotel staff in charge was not available most of the time to help us, and we had to book extra night at a different hotel .. a refund was rejected and nothing we could do. Please don't book with this hotel Regards
Place was really nice, breakfast was great! It would be nice for hotels to have a small fan in the room when the temperatures are so hot.
Great view of the lake, nice staff, free parking
A nice place to stay and take a trip to Thun or Interlaken.
Friendly staff & very good breakfast.I'll recommend this hotel an amazing and very nice hotel and views.
Welcoming hotel with great friendly staff
Hotel is situated in a quiet town. Lovely view. Lovely people. A short walk further to the right of the hotel and you will find a suspension bridge with one of the best views.
Beautiful area
Good location, nice breakfast
The room was comfortable and the bathroom updated; but the carpet all over the hotel was horrible.
Lovely hotel
Just a terrific experience. Upgraded to regular suite from a junior suite. Dinner at the hotel was delicious. The included buffet lacked nothing including champagne. Beautiful views. All in all a first rate experience.
Not a Four Star
This hotel is not **** as advertised on Expedia. The positives are the views to Lake Thun and the spacious rooms with balconies. The staff were pretty friendly too. The negatives are 1) there was no air conditioning on a very warm day and so at night we had to leave the doors open and kept getting woken up by the busses traveling by and the church bell which rung every quarter hour through the night 2) the Cable TV connection was not working the entire time and the desk clerk failed to disclose it 3) the Wi-Fi signal kept cutting out. The worst part is the rate Expedia has posted presumes this is a Four star place. We paid the same rate at much nicer places in Bern and Zermatt. Needless to say we were disappointed but luckily we only stayed one night!!
Recommandé
Excellent sejour dans l hotel. Il ne manquait que le soleil pour apprécier la vie sur le lac.
L’hôtel n’est pas très joli mais la vue est magnifique et les chambres parfaites.
Nice hotel in a small village with lake view.
Nice hotel “a bit old” but nice in a small village, with a fantastic view over the lake and mountains. We had a very nice room with balcony. New bathroom with very good showers. Breakfast served in the restaurant with Mountain View. Food in the restaurant was a bit under standard of what you could expect. Only 5 min walk to the panorama bridge. Perfect stop for one or two nights in the area of Thun lake. Will I use again, yes price and standard go hand in hand.

Fantastisch gelegen Hotel. Heerlijk ontbijt. Hele klantvriendelijke eigenaresse. Alles is mogelijk als je wat vraagt. Heerlijk hotel!
The view is nice and suitable for self driving
Værelset er en suite med stue/køkken samt et stort soveværelse. Badeværelset er stort og vi lagde mærke til, at det var handicap venligt. Der er en stor balkon til værelset med bord og et par stole. Balkonen er perfekt sted til at opholde sig og nyde den smukke udsigt. Morgen mad er af god standard uden at være prangende. Kan varmt anbefale hotellet.

Very charming and friendly hosts and staff! Excellent menu and breakfast included! Great value and a gorgeous setting in the mountains by Lake Thun
