    Maybe a small table on the balcony between the chairs for coffee/tee or enjoying a glass of vine with the nice view.

    Location is perfect with nice view to the mountains and available parking for the car in front of the object. Breakfast was very good, food quality was perfect, fresh and tasty though not a big selection of the food.

    There wasn’t anything we did not like.

    The location was excellent, with good parking facilities, the room was beautiful with lots of detail. The staff were fantastic, very helpful. So much so that we stayed an extra night. We loved this hotel.

    The animal skulls in the walls are a bit creepy to me, but seems to be part of the local culture.

    Breakfast was delicious, complete with fruits, a selection of yoghurt, delicious breads. The view from the balcony is perfect, with a full view of the Eiger and the canyon. We could see the entrance to the Firstbahn from the breakfast room. The staff was amazing, Helena in particular was very helpful. The decoration is simple and elegant, especially the style on the sheets, curtains, and towels. There are some skulls in the walls from hunted animals which may be creepy or sad to some.

    I enjoyed all 7 nights at this small,family- run Chalet . It's a 15 -second walk to the best ski gondola("First") and near many cafes and restaurants -yet it's quiet because it's set back from the main street .I even slept with the windows wide open. Many rooms have balconies that offer grand views of the dramatic mountains. Comprehensive breakfast,with healthy options. I can't imagine a better location in all of Grindelwald.(And I explored everywhere)The bus stop is a half -minute walk away from the front door. Pleasant and cheerful front office staff,cleaning staff and breakfast staff. Comfortable bed.Good strong hot water in the tub/shower. Consistently good wifi signal all 7 nights.

    We thought that the beds were too soft. The room rates in Grindelwald are generally VERY high & this property was no exception @ CHF300 per night. I would expect to pay theses sort of rates at a 5* property but maybe I'm just old-fashioned!!

    Good location next to 'Grindelwald First' cable car. Pleasant staff & a good breakfast. Good size room & generally a very pleasant hotel.

    Very pretty chalet with a character. Conveniently located near First. It's a 10 minute uphill walk from station but easy to do, there is a bus as well. Rooms had beautiful views. Perfect for a group if you can get rooms together. Very friendly owner providing personal attention to needs. We had one of the best breakfasts here. Overall a memorable stay. There is a very good restaurant with friendly and attentive service.

    The only downside is the price, but it's not more expensive than comparable options in Grindelwald.

    Room was large with a large balcony and a very nice view to the mountains on the other side of the valley. The hotel is located right next to the First gondola, and steps away from the main street where many restaurants may be found, as well as a bus stop. Breakfast was very nice. Free parking was available in the hotel's private parking lot.

    Distance from the train station - uphill makes it quite difficult upon arrival. After arrival and being informed about the bus helps.
