Hotel Du Nord – A Favorite for Families in Interlaken

Hotel Du Nord's 64 rooms are all non-smoking and furnished with tea-making facilities, bathrobes, and slippers. Some rooms include a balcony or terrace overlooking the Jungfrau mountain range or the central Hohematte Park. Room configurations are noted by guests as being more spacious than standard European hotel rooms of this category.

The hotel sits 200 metres from the Harderbahn Cable Car and 400 metres from both the Interlaken Ost Train Station and the Lake Brienz pier. Guests can walk to the Höhematte Park, Schlosspark, and the main shopping street with watch boutiques and restaurants within minutes. The paragliding landing zone is directly opposite the hotel, and the landing point is just outside.

The hotel provides free WiFi throughout the property, a complimentary breakfast buffet with options including fresh omelettes ordered from the chef, and a first-round complimentary minibar in each room. Guests have access to on-site dining at the bar and lounge area, plus a shared lounge with TV, a sun terrace, and a garden with outdoor furniture. Additional services include a pillow menu, luggage storage, private check-in/check-out, and a concierge service that provides local recommendations and ticket bookings.

The Bödelibad, located in the vicinity of the hotel, offers public indoor and outdoor pools along with spa and fitness facilities. The hotel itself has a gym, a sauna, and ski pass vendor services for winter sports. Harder Kulm funicular, a five-minute walk away, provides access to hiking trails and panoramic viewpoints.

Triple rooms are available to accommodate families of three, with one guest noting a dedicated baby room in the lobby for diaper changes. The hotel provides a baby chair with cushion in the breakfast area and staff have been noted for preparing special touches such as making the bed with toys and books for children. The responsive front desk can also provide extra fans upon request for rooms without air conditioning.
