Great location and we enjoyed the staff, and breakfast.
Good location, room is very clean and breakfast is good too.
The only down sides are - to get to the hotel there is a narrow ramp you have to get up and no lift in the hotel so if you have heavy luggages it will be an issue to carry up the staircase.
Really excellent place to stay for walking around the Eiger. Beautifully kept, easy parking, 2 minute walk to the train, Fantastic breakfasts and the most wonderful view of the Eiger from our third floor balcony. Loved this place!!
We booked a “room with mountain view” and were consequently slightly puzzled and disappointed to find out our room only had a very partial mountain view (one had to bend over to see a few mountains, that means no direct view from the middle of the room). We complained and the owner told us there was nothing he could do as the hotel was fully booked; he also refused any compensation and refused to acknowledge any of our complaint. We thought this was poor guest service and an attitude unworthy of a hotel manager.
After we involved Expedia however, the owner got in touch with us and told us we could be changed to a room with an actual mountain view the next day - which we did. This gesture was appreciated and saved the trip.
The hotel has a truly amazing spa, which is better than spas at some 5* hotels I’ve been to.
All in all a nice chalet hotel in Grindelwald.

Average hotel with very average breakfast, I have never had such bad fruits. Person can totally under that they dont want you to eat.
Downfilled duvets and pillows were a bedtime delight. Hospitable husband and wife and wonderful breakfasts, as well as fabulous weather made for a memorable stay
Super friendly staff. I appreciated that they accommodated my shaky German. I was very pleased.

Just Ok
Our shower was faulty, couldn’t shower in the room and we only realized it at night. Owner could not fix it and did not offer to compensate us in any way. This hotel has no elevator so if you are not travelling light, it’s not a good option. However owner was helpful with carrying our luggages up the stairs. Wellness area has a small jacuzzi and that’s the only pool in the hotel. It’s cosy. Breakfast was great and they offer a good selection. We had a satisfactory stay but could be better if owner would have compensated us for the night without the shower which I think it’s rather unacceptable especially for the price we paid. A little gesture goes a long way.
