Find the Cheap Naters Hotels

We came here for 4 nights with an ebay voucher and unlike the other hotel we stayed at in Gstaad, were made to feel like 2nd class citizens. First they forgot to clean our room, then 2 mornings we had to wait for the table to be laid for breakfast and finally, there was a function on in the usual restauarant and we had to ask where we were to eat and in the other restaurant, we had to eat on bar stools. Food was very uneven, some things were excellent like the salads and pates, others were so so, for instance we had brown sauce with chicken, pork and beef. The same brown sauce. Wine was also pricey, having paid 25 or 30 francs for a bottle of swiss wine in other places we were suprised at 40 for a half bottle of assemblage, which wasn't even labelled which grapes had been used. All in all, sad as we shall certainly return to the area as our daughter works here (and had eaten with us every evening) but shall look for a friendlier place to stay.

The second stay, cost-effective, want to save trouble in the hotel downstairs restaurant to eat, after eating, found that the local price is more expensive hotel, two people ate more than 1,000 yuan, but the taste and environment is indeed good.

We were a big group of friends staying at Hamilton Lodge, which offered us the most perfect stay at beautiful Belalp. The location is the best, close to the chair lift, school and equipment rental shop. The rooms offer a cousy stay with a great view from the balcony. The restaurant service was impecable, delicious food and great service, which always adapeted to changes in schedule for such a big group like ours ( around 20p). The cosy living room with a fireplace and a piano alowded us to enjoy a great evening, while playing and singing together. The Spa offered more than expected, between sauna and several outdoor pools. The hostes are incredible people and will always try to make your stay the best possibile ever! We will come back as a group next year and certainly some of us with family or even for a romantic getaway! PS: All necessary measure against Covid were taken into account at our arrival and stay.

If this hotel were a bit more expensive, I wouldn't rate it with more than four points, but as the pricing is so reasonable for Swiss standards, I think the value for money merits another point. It *is* old - the building as well as the furnishings and appliances. I noticed that on the hairdryer in the bathroom, it said ”Made in W. Germany” - so before Germany's reunification, which makes that hairdryer more than 30 years old. But it worked well and was clean, and this is typical for the whole hotel: Everything is kept in good working order and I hadn't any issues with anything. Some furnishings are visibly worn, but never dirty. My room was well appointed. Particularly, I think i counted about seven power outlets (!) in the room alone (including multiple sockets), and additional ones (for the hairdryer and a shaver outlet) in the bathroom, so you will always have enough to charge your devices etc. The room rate included (continental) breakfast which was decent enough - including boiled eggs, muesli, various kinds of bread, a small selection of cheese, juices, and a good coffee machine. There is a room safe, though it is tiny - just large enough for a wallet, some keys or the like. I think the hotel could improve quite a bit if some small things which can't be very costly were replaced - such as installing larger room safes, or new shower heads (the shower was fine, hot and strong, but the shower head was a tiny plastic thing). If your room faces the railway station, there might be some noise, though the railway in fron of the hotel is not the main line with freight trains, just the small MGB local passenger trains (and Glacier Express) which aren't very noisy. As a railway fan, I even liked it to have bit (not very loud) of the announcements in the background, and it's quiet later in the night. I would definitely stay there again.

It is a perfect hotel with the description of ”70s hotel like this”. The small elevator is full of retro feeling with the door manually. I think the water circulation is updated several times, but the old feeling is undeniable. It is not an auto lock, but you don't have to leave the key when you go out. It may vary depending on the room, but my room did not have a refrigerator or safety box. I think the cleaning is firm. Breakfast is naive but substantial. There are a lot of bread and jam, and there are melon with skin. It seems to be a family management or close to it, and there are not always people at the front desk. Let's have time. Instead, the station is in front of the hotel. It is not suitable for people who like the glittering facilities, but hospitality is outstanding and can be recommended.

Absolutely loved this hotel. It is centrally located in Brig and a short walk to everything including the train and over a dozen restaurants. The staff here are very friendly and do a nice job keeping the place very clean and inviting. The freshly made breakfasts are so nice and the home made granola is AMAZING. The staff speak several different languages so I was able to interact with them easily in English. I loved the old keys that are used to get into the room. Bed was comfortable. There was no TV in my room but that was fine with me. My only complaint would be that there is no closet, just a hanging rack with 6 hangers. I managed okay but I do like to hang up all my work clothes for a business trip. However even with that, I would never consider staying anywhere else in Brig when I return. I also love the mascot, such a cool logo.

Stayed at Hotel Stockalperhof for 4 nights as part of the Classic Glacier Express Tour (Great Rail Journeys). The hotel is generally unmanned after you receive your key, with the exception of the breakfast service. Rooms across 5 floors with even numbered rooms benefiting from a small balcony that looks on to the mountains. Coffee (pod) machine provided but only 2 pods and after this you have to pay for your own (Coop is 100m away) so you end up eating and drinking out a lot of the time. The bathroom suffers from the shower head being positioned too low to be of any use, with a hose that is too short in many rooms. This does need looked at by the management. The hotel is very well positioned in Brig with a number of restaurants on the doorstep and only a 350m walk from the train station. I personally would return without a second thought; it is the shower that stops this being a '5' review.
