Hotel Gletschergarten  

The scenery is outstanding, regarding this hotel it's all about 'location, location, location'.

A bit twee and the 'traditional Swiss decor' felt a bit dated to be honest.

The warm welcome we received on arrival and the continuing helpfulness and friendliness were what made this hotel special and memorable. The location could not have been better what with the Eiger staring at us from our bed and balcony. The public rooms were cozy and inviting, and the food was delicious. I don't think we had a better hotel experience on our whole three and a half week trip through Switzerland, Italy, and Slovenia.

Staying at this hotel was like coming home. The owners were delightful. The room we had was very spacious, very clean and had a magnificient view of the mountains. Location was great - just outside the center of town and a short walk to shopping and the train. We had dinner both nights at the hotel resturant and enjoyed both tremendously. We were sorry we weren't staying longer. Plenty to do in the area and a beautiful location.

Lovely, charming hotel at the edge of town in a lovely setting. The family who owns the hotel is absolutely lovely. Charming public rooms, very nice dining room. The mountains surrounding the area are magnificent.

Our room was spacious, but dark. The low roof covered part of the balcony which was disappointing. The bathroom is very very dated ~ wallpaper from the 70's (?) and floor that is worn. The worst thing of all was the towels ~ good heavens, spring for some new towels! They had to be at least 15 years old. The town is pretty touristy.

The owners were very welcoming and pleasant throughout our stay. Also, they were most helpful in getting us tickets for the Jungfrau train trip -- something that we had wanted to do for ages! We had beautiful, clear weather -- not their doing but they kept their eyes on the weather! Our room was large, airy, and very pleasant with a wonderful view of a glacier. The dining experience was pleasant and the serving staff was delightful -- charming and helpful young ladies. A very nice gesture is that both Gary and his wife came out to our car to say goodbye and wish us well! They really are great hosts!

A comfortable stay - the staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Well situated (maybe ten minutes from 'the centre' but that doesn't matter). We had a 'superior' double room which was spacious with a good view. Good breakfast & the evening meals are varied and well presented.

One small niggle: the bathroom taps are clunky and not easy to use.

Hotel staff was so warm and nice. The 3rd day was raining, but we wanted to go for a hike. Hotel owner gave us wonderful suggestions where to visit in rainy day and we enjoyed it so much. Also adviced us to buy a child pass for my 11 daughter, which is valid for 1yr and can be used for all train & gondola in the area. That saved us a lot of money on transportation. Breakfast was very good & we enjoyed freshly baked bread & homemade yogurt. A view from room balcony was excellent. It's really lovely place to stay for holiday.

Water tap: a bit difficult to use, but maybe it's common in Swiss. Anyway No problem, we get used to it.

This family run (since the late 1800's) is a great place to stay. The family certainly knows their business and has it all right. Views are beautiful, the food wonderful and they are very helpful in every way.

Well, the cost with the Swiss Franc verses the dollar and the high prices in Switzerland alone. But I would return to the Hotel.

Really nice - the owners were super helpful !

Road noise a bit loud

Kind staff. Nice dinner.

Room was not so clean and aging. Generaly, low cost performance.

We enjoyed stay in this hotel quite well. The family members operating the hotel are warm hearted and taking care us with heratfelted manner. The meals were also with quite good quality. Remarkable hotel to stay with quiet atrmosphere viewing north face of Eiger, Schreckhorn and Under Grindelwald-gletscher.
