The hotel was clean and nice. the big drawback was there was no elevator and you had to walk up a steep incline to get to the hotel. Cars can not reach the hotel entrance.

8/10 Very Good

Lovely hotel and lovely staff but if you don’t enjoy a walk up hill from town or stairs (there’s no lift) then probably best to choose one of the numerous hotels that are in town and a short walk from the train station. This hotel is quieter than others and has a breathtaking view but after one night we were glad to have booked at one of the more convenient hotels on the Main Street because after a day of hiking there was no way we wanted to trudge up and down to get to our hotel and then once again to go for dinner and back.

Lovely staff, lovely views , clean rooms. There is a bit of a climb to get to the hotel, but we were here to hike anyway so it didn't bother us

6/10 Good

Not bad
The stay was okey but could be much better. Disappointed with no AC at all or at least a fan. It was super hot in the lobby and in my room as well. As a solution the staff suggested to open the windows to get some air. The windows don't have a mosquito net so all the bugs and flies were coming as soon as you open the window. Another big disappointment that there is no iron in the hotel for the guests.

10/10 Exceptional

Love this hotel! It was clean, furnished beautifully, and the view was INCREDIBLE. But be warned: it is up a *very* steep hill, you may want to reconsider if your elderly or have a physical impairment. Another warning I wish we knew: No one staffs the hotel after 6pm so if you're arriving late you need to let them know ahead of time. We got there around 10pm and were locked out for over half an hour. The only place they list this is in the small print if you click the hyperlink under further information. I really wish the hotel would make this more obvious, like in the email they send you a few days before your stay. (I swear they give you every other detail except the fact that you have to check in before 6pm). But those two notes aside, the hotel was amazing and I would highly recommend it. The breakfast was really nice too! I would absolutely stay here again. It's definitely a little off the beaten path, but thats why the view is so amazing, totally worth it if you can make it up the hill with your luggage!

Great stay! Just be prepared for the steep hill to come and go to town, we didn’t mind and preferred the great views from the room for the hike up. Small rooms but clean and would definitely stay here again!

Amazing! Will be coming back!
Wow! This hotel exceeded my expectations! I loved how cozy it felt, how clean it was, and how easy check in was. I had to check in late and they did an amazing job in making my check in seamless. The breakfast is great with an amazing view. The overall view from the hotel is incredible! I love that it is higher up than the town. Do not bring big luggage though! The walk up was definitely steep at times (the only negative).

Couldn't ask for a hotel with a more stunning view of the Grindelwald area. Made even better when looking out the windows in the morning during their delicious breakfast. Very comfortable rooms and wonderful shared spaces. Only precaution to note is that it's an uphill walk from the train station.

We had a great stay overall! A nice room with lovely view of Grindelwald. Breakfast was excellent, particularly the service! Two areas of improvement were a couple spots of mold in the bathroom, near the ceiling, and a sink that wasn’t draining properly.
