    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.

    Basic but cozy with everything you need. Staff are lovely and really helpful. Great views of the mountains and the breakfast was nice. Free, fast bus into town every 15 minutes.

    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.

    The dinners were great, and the bus 121 took us right into town and delivered us back in no time.

    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.

    Wish wi-fi was better. We had some issues with our electric car and good wifi would of made things easier. But we knew that from previous reviews.

    It was great being away from the town and people. Sadly it rained so we never got a good view of the Eiger. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were great.

    Flies both in the indoor restaurant and outside eating area were a nuisance.

    If you want spectacular Mountain View’s all round and a traditional interior then you won’t go wrong here. Very quiet at night as it’s right at the top of Grindelwald. Baloo the Labrador is a lovely feature if you like dogs. The outdoor seating affords superb Mountain View’s of the Eiger etc.

    The hotel is within walking distance to many hikes with varying degrees of difficulty. We completed a hike that was about 10 miles round trip up to a restaurant that gave amazing views of one of the glaciers. The hotel has a bus stop right in front of it. You can take a quick 3 minute ride to town, or you can walk into town. (The roads are pretty narrow and there are a lot of mountain bikers, so I recommend taking the bus over walking.) The hotel provides you with a free bus pass.
