Hapimag Resort Interlaken

The resort and its setting

Hapimag Resort Interlaken sits at Höheweg 95, in the heart of Interlaken, the town wedged between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz that has long served as the gateway to the Jungfrau region. Guest reviews (4.5 out of 5 from over 1,380 ratings) describe functional apartments with mountain views, a relaxed, hotel-style setting, a spa, and on-site dining. Units are self-catering apartments, which suits both longer family stays and shorter breaks where you'd rather have your own kitchen than rely on restaurants every night. As a Hapimag property, the resort follows the brand's house style: understated, well-maintained apartments built for repeat use rather than flashy extras.

The area and things to do

Interlaken's location makes it a genuine year-round base. The Jungfrau and its mountain railway are about 45 minutes away, a popular full-day excursion for anyone keen on high-altitude views without technical climbing. Closer in, Interlaken itself is a hub for adventure sports — paragliding, canyoning, and mountain biking operators are clustered within a five-minute walk or short drive of the resort. Lake Brienz, roughly 10 minutes away, offers scenic boat cruises along turquoise water backed by forested slopes, while Schynige Platte, about 20 minutes out, is a well-known starting point for alpine hiking with panoramic views back over the Jungfrau massif. Villages scattered through the Bernese Oberland, generally 15 to 30 minutes from Interlaken, are worth a slower day out for anyone who prefers quiet lanes and mountain cheese dairies to the main tourist routes. Seasons here are distinct: summer (roughly June to September) is hiking and outdoor-sports weather, while December to February draws skiers and winter-sports visitors to the surrounding slopes.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Hapimag Resort Interlaken and are weighing up resale or rental, BidMyTimeshare.com works as an owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, write your listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on a sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers.

Because Hapimag operates a points- or membership-style ownership structure rather than a fixed-week deed at most of its resorts, resale terms are set by Hapimag itself rather than by an independent owners' association. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, ask Hapimag directly for the current transfer (resale) fee, confirm whether a right of first refusal applies to your membership, and get written confirmation of what a resale buyer will and won't inherit (for example, whether any loyalty benefits or booking history carry over). Also ask how long the transfer process typically takes, since this varies by brand and membership type and isn't something we can state generically here. Always confirm the current annual maintenance fee with Hapimag before listing, since this directly affects what a buyer is willing to pay.

Practical notes for renters and buyers

Renters researching this resort should look at unit size (studios up to multi-bedroom apartments are available across the Hapimag portfolio), proximity to Höheweg's shops and transport links, and whether having a kitchen matters for their trip. Buyers considering a resale purchase should treat the annual fee and any transfer costs as part of the real cost of ownership, not just the headline resale price.

Getting there

Zurich Airport is the most practical international gateway, around two hours from Interlaken by car or train. Swiss rail connections into Interlaken are frequent and scenic, which is worth factoring in if you're comparing driving versus train travel from Zurich.
