I love family owned restaurants and hotels as they carry a legacy and this place just ticked all the boxes. Recently renovated with an amazing bathroom, great amenities and clean space to live. Bed was super comfortable. So accessible to the public transport, with options to park if needed. The entire staff was so helpful, always there to guide us. Helped me save money on passes and stuff by giving options. Would stay again when I visit next!

Hotel Gletschergarten is the absolute Swiss experience located at the edge of town beneath the beautiful alps. As it is family owned , four generations, husband and wife are hands on daily with staff so everything works like clockwork. Continental breakfast is enjoyed with a spectacular morning view. Dinners are delicious, convenient, and optional with a single menu every night.

A Small Hotel with Everything!
Great views! A very nice family hotel, a few blocks "off the beaten path", but still close to everything. Rooms were a nice size (bathrooms a bit small) with a very nice balcony with photographic views. The service was great with a very friendly and helpful staff! Would I stay here again? Yes!

The room’s view is incredible! Dinner was good but we were surprised by the price, which was not mentioned when we ordered it. The towels were old and dingy, time to change them! Many bugs flew into the bathroom at night. The bathroom sink doesn’t drain well.

Wonderful relaxing atmosphere and pleasant staff. Perfect location at the far end of the Main Street, quiet but accessible. Dinner is highly recommended and a good value. Grindelwald museum across the street has unique history of the area and mountaineering activities. I would stay here again.

Nice property. Wraparound balcony had amazing mountain views. Staff was friendly and helpful. We had the fixed price meal for dinner which was excellent. Only downside was a noisy bathroom fan that didn’t go off for a few minutes but when the door was closed you could barely hear it. A really nice place to stay and less than a 5 minute walk to Grindelwald First, which was amazing!
