Although my stay was short, it was very nice. The balcony, excellent breakfast, and being in the heart of Grindelwald made it worth it.

Beware of Bed Bugs
Unfortunately, the room assigned to us was infested with bed bugs. We also learnt that another room below ours suffered the same fate. While we were given another room, the entire stay was affected as we needed to take a lot of precautionary measures to prevent our items from getting infected. The overall upkeep of the room was generally satisfactory, but it was old and dated.

Our say at hotel residence.
We had a fantastic time in grindelwald hotel Residence was very good and the location was in a beautiful area of grindelwald with stunning views of the mountains a and not to far to walk the centre, staff in hotel Residence were excellent and very helpful, our room was very clean and spacious with two balconies, breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Overall hotel Residence was excellent and we would definitely go there again.

We found the Residence to be adequate and worth the gorgeous views and proximity to a bus stop and some dining options. While the aesthetic is dated, our room was sufficient and clean. My only suggestion would be to add some thicker curtains or blinds as the headlights from cars did shine into our room quite early each morning (around 5:00 am). Our room was situated on the back of the building. The staff was friendly and this hotel is perfect for anyone who doesn’t plan to spend the whole trip in the room.

The whole property needs to be renovated. From the carpet to the faucet in the bathroom looked as if they were from the 60s. The breakfast was great and the view from our terrace was amazing.

The staff were not very helpful in providing directions ie. We asked if there was a laundromat and the staff member gave us directions to a place that does not exist. The building is extremely old and needs some love. Good if you want something cheap in Grindelwald.

Sir, or Ma'am I have a problem on this booking. I checked out and paid for this booking in this morning at the hotel. The problem is the room price was different than the one shows on confirmation booking detail. Hotel required me to pay 180.5fr except city tax. But my booking detail shows 171fr except city tax. The price even including city tax and other fees is only 178.8fr on booking detail. I want to have refund of price difference. Thank you in advance.

Not bad, but not great
The hotel is OK. It’s clean and comfortable and the breakfast buffet is amazing! What let’s the place down is the condition. It’s very dated with threadbare carpets and a lot of staining in the bathroom and a lot of scuff marks on the walls. Just needs a bit of TLC. I’ll be back to Grindelwald but would choose somewhere else

Everything about our stay in Grindelwald was perfect! There was plenty of parking at the hotel and it is free. The ladies at the desk are the best!!! So kind and helpful. They also worked the breakfast area and promptly made and served me fresh coffee each morning. The hotel is at the end of the road thru town where the shops and restaurants are. It's quiet and only a 3-4 minute walk to restaurants. The view of the mountains is fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel.....great location, great view, and superb service!

Don’t let looks fool you
Wonderful stay. Rooms were lovely with all amenities and great views. Breakfast was very generous and tasty. Very lovely stay. Unfortunately, driving up to hotel, we were scared that hotel was in poor condition as the outside was old & in poor condition but we were very pleasantly surprised to see the very clean & nice inside.

Great price for INSIDE the hotel.
Excellent location. Very nice rooms with all amenities. If the outside of the building would get a remodel, the hotel would be more stars! I suggest having a more general shampoo conditioner. Breakfast was very generous and tasty.

The staff and breakfast were very good. My only issue was the internet did not work at all one night in my room and when I asked staff about it they said the internet was not so good on signal but showed me a small lobby downstairs I could use. I would though use them again I would just know I could not rely on cell or internet access.
