We visited at the end of April when this hotel was still under construction. It was a minor inconvenience as we paid for a “garden view” when the view was a complete construction zone. They did upgrade our room size because of this. That being said, the restaurant was fantastic and the staff were very friendly. We stayed 2 nights and ate at the restaurant both nights. Their buffet breakfast is also amazing. Seeing that the hotel is no longer under construction, I would definitely stay here again.

The view from our balcony was incredible! Very close to the train station and gandola ride. Staff was very friendly, especially Miriam at the front desk, who attempted to make us drinks when the bar was closed. She did a great job and was so nice to accommodate us. One of my favorite stays in all of Switzerland!

Brienzer Rothorn
On our trip to Switzerland, our hostess in Interlaken told us to take our Mum to Hotel Giessbach for a meal. She told us that it is situated above Lake Brienz and can be reached via train. We had never been to any such place before so we thought it would be great idea. . By the time it was lunch time, Mum was tired and wasnt very keen to travel further. So we had some awesome Chinese food at a nearby restaurant and dropped her back to our B&B. . In the evening, my brother and I went on a cruise on Lake Brienz. And while on the cruise, we crossed this super gorgeous Giessbach waterfall which tumbles into Lake Brienz. Above the falls was the hotel where we had planned to go earlier. . That color of water and those trees surely had me. #Switzerland
