De Ville is a charming hotel situated in a picturesque medieval village with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. It features free Wi-Fi and fine dining with renowned regional specialities. Set in a chalet building, rooms at Hôtel de Ville have been recently renovated and retain traditional wooden features. They all include a TV set with cable channels and en suite bathrooms with bath or shower. Gruyères is a Swiss culinary Mecca, thanks to its renowned cheese; guests of the hotel can enjoy authentic cheese delicacies, served at the restaurant. Those include Gruyère quiche, raclette and fondue. Bulle and Pringy Train Stations are just 2 km away from de Ville hotel and popular nearby attractions include Gruyères Castle. There is paid communal parking from 8:30 am to 6 pm at the entrance of the village (electric vehicle charging possible at P3). Depending on the time of your arrival and departure, we have a preferential price of CHF 10.- for 24 hours (to be picked up at the reception).

    Very well located in the historical village Gruyères. Excellent price/value ration. We had a minor complication with payment, however the hotel was very well responsive. I would book it again.

    The view from our room was amazing. Great location. Dinner at the restaurant was fabulous. The fondue and the macaroni and cheese were perfect! Our hostess, Dora, was very sweet and helpful in checking in and later as our server for dinner.

    A nice hotel along the main drag in the quaint and picturesque medieval village of Gruyères. We had a very spacious room offered at a discount, and enjoyed the nice breakfast in the morning well worth the CHF 15 per person.
