What’s the idea behind No.8?
For us, No.8 is more than just a hotel. With our concept, we are trying to find a solution to the existing lack of staff and the rising costs in the hospitality field. Our aim is to offer our guests a comfy stay in a stylish ambiance without charging for unnecessary extras and services.
When can I check-in?
Our official check-in time is 3PM.
In any case, you can check-in earlier in case your room is ready.
When do I have to check-out?
Our check-out time is 11am.
Is it possible to book a late check-out?
Unfortunately no, a late check-out is not possible as we need to get the rooms ready in time for the next arrivals.
Is a late check-in possible?
You can check-in anytime. In case you know that you’ll be arriving after 10PM we recommend to complete the online check-in before hand to guarantee a smooth and hassle free check-in.
How do I get to the hotel from the train station?
You get off at Interlaken West train station and then cross the bridge over the river. Right after the bridge turn right and follow the river upstream until you reach the hotel.
The walk will take about 5 minutes. For a map see our contact page.

No, but our coffee and wine bar Spatz is located next to the hotel and there are a lot of restaurants within walking distance.

Yes we do. You’ll find our luggage room by the entrance and it is available before and after your stay.
How often do you clean the room during my stay?
This is up to you. We only clean your room when you put your “please make up my room” sign outside.

No we don’t. Think sustainable!
But if you wish your towels to be replaced, just leave them on the floor and put your “please make up my room” sign outside.
Do you offer parking at the hotel?
We have three parking spaces at the hotel which is definitely not enough for all guests.
First come, first serve. Nevertheless, there are a lot of parking options around the hotel. I recommend “Bären Parking” or “Staedtlizentrum”. The going rate is CHF 25.- per day.
