    The WiFi connection was very poor. A kettle provision per room is more helpful though they always arranged hot water when we requested for it. Personaly I missed eggs in the breakfast 🥲

    The location in the middle of nature was so refreshing. Cozy hotel rooms Transport conveyance Very clean and well maintained Appreciate the sustainable approach of use less and waste less Room views

    No kettle in room, no air-conditioning which caused some stuffy nights as warmer than expected and no toaster at breakfast.

    Close to all attractions, fresh food daily and attentive staff

    I was given a price for my room, which J shared in the end. I wrote many messages, to inform of the extra person and not once was I told my price would double. We spent lots of extra money on 2 dinners and wine, but when it came time to pay the bill promised at booking, it had doubled. In CHF it's a lot of extra money for sharing a twin bedroom. Anyway, I would have expected prior warning and a chance to check the extra cost of a 2nd person.

    I intended to stay solo and then given a particular circumstance, my son was able to join me. The location and experience of finding it to be snowing at the top of the gondola was wonderful. The staff, however, were gruff and confrontational.

    It is very accessible during ski season, you can get there with bus 121 every 15 minutes. But it is a bit difficult to approach when ski season ended.

    It is a ten minute bus ride by bus 121.So it is a quiet place to take a rest from the crowd.

    Lovely property with amazing views. A bit out of town

    The property is a bit out of the town which if we'd have known we probably would have chosen something else closer. The only other thing I'd say is that on arrival we weren't made to feel very welcome by the lady that eventually greeted us. We felt she was quite abrupt.

    The property was lovely, was right on the road but this wasn't an issue. Our room overlooked the mountains which was beautiful. Room was a good size, nice and big and clean. Bathroom was lovely and clean, great water pressure. They still use shower curtains which we are not used to but at least this one was clean. The waitresses there were so lovely. The language barrier was a little difficult at first but we got through this. The breakfast was adequate but not heaps. Although we didn't have dinner there, the restaurant was always busy so we are presuming it was good food, just expensive.

    The room I booked and paid for from the hotel is the most expensive and best room with a terrace view. But I actually stayed in a room that was not like this for the first night, and the next day the hotel automatically helped me change the original room type. It means that the money paid on the first night does not match the actual residence. I don't know why.

    The landscape is really beautiful.

    You would be charged extra for the Mountain View. Also, if you’re gonna stay more than one night make sure you know the extra charges. Cos there’s a few tax and charges that we had to pay on the day.

    The views were exceptional

    no lift. somehow we didnt realise - for the luggage and my elderly mum, that was a negative - but we'd plan better next time. Happy to come again, even though there isnt one.

    it was exactly what we were looking for. Away from the busy centre and with amazing views, friendly staff and great food. really great food!

    This is about 1.2 miles from downtown Grindelwald, so you will need to take the bus or walk.

    The breakfast was delicious, the rooms were small but comfortable and warm. The staff was kind and got us everything we needed. There was daily room cleaning. The views and location were stunning.

    Rooms are comfortable but need updating. The staff is so busy with their duties, including running their restaurant, that I wasn’t able to get much helpful touring and hiking advice. Distant location from town center, and limited bus service, requires a car.

    The property is in a beautiful and peaceful location, with stunning views for rooms facing the front. Restaurant is good by Grindelwald standards (only fair by international standards), for both lunch and dinner.

    Wi-fi was somewhat unreliable but it meant my wife and I had to talk to each other rather than sit browsing in our phones 🤣

    Fantastic quiet location with breathtaking mountain views. Our room was on the first floor with large balcony directly facing the mountains. The room was spacious and comfortably furnished. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner also very good with lots of produce from the owners farm. Bus stop immediately outside with a great free bus service into Grindelwald town centre that runs every 30mins till early evening. Other reviews have mentioned that the lady in charge was abrupt but she was very friendly to us and could switch between 4 different languages to ensure everyone felt welcome.

    Bus service to the hotel stops early, before 7pm, so be mindful of that if you don't arrive with a car.

    Lovely hotel with friendly and attentive staff! My room was clean and comfortable and I had a nice view of the First mountain from my window. The hotel is located away from the center, during the night it was quiet and I was able to get a good rest after my hike. The bus stop is conveniently right in front of the hotel. A continental breakfast was also included, which was great.
