*9.3* First Grindelwald: only 5 minutes away! (1,200 feet by foot)
Quaint and cozy family run hotel in walking distance to everything. Owners and staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome. Lovely views from our balcony. We will be back!
GermanyThe view from our balcony and the owners were amazing! Also, there is a bus stop 20 feet away. This makes the location extremely convenient.
United States of AmericaThe owners were so helpful. The staff very friendly. The inn charming with its beautiful flowers.
United States of AmericaLocation was slightly up hill on Main Street away from busiest part of town so more quiet yet easy to walk everywhere in town. Owners are 4 generations. Called Gary while on train to Grindelwald and he happily met us at train station for ride to hotel w luggage. Views from room and breakfast breathtaking looking at mountains.
United States of AmericaThe owners were great hosts and were a huge help setting up tours and traveling around Grindelwald. They were alsovery responsive when we had any requests.
United States of AmericaWe stayed at this wonderful place for four nights with our two adult sons, 20 & 23. The food, rooms, owner attention/ Ancestry of the hotel, and warm hospitality were outstanding. The hotel is like a mini-museum of Grindewald. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and it was some of the best food on our trip- fresh, local, tasty, and healthy. Our sons loved the basement ping pong and we all appreciated the laundry facility and game table. You can get your Jungfrau pass and tickets printed at the hotel without having to wait in line with tourists at the train station. The owners are lovely and very helpful people who encouraged and helped me find the spot where my father and mother took a picture in 1960 so I could get the same picture of my sons. Unforgettable experience!
United States of AmericaThe staff was especially helpful. They turned on the steam room when I requested it. Delicious breakfast. And best of all a balcony to sip a glass of wine.
United States of AmericaCharming authentic family-run chalet hotel with a lot of character. On the edge of town away from the hustle and bustle. Owner-operators are very friendly and helpful.
United States of AmericaCould not ask for more amazing views. We arrived after dark and we woke up to stunningly close mountains and the sounds of the cows with large bells passing right beside. Staff went out of the way to help us from everything from breakfast to local activities.
United States of Americavery friendly and helpful. Charming Swiss family-run hotel
