Hotels Near Alpiglen in Grindelwald

Excitement when we booked the hotel: five stars hotel, a restaurant with 14 points on Gault & Millau, spa and gorgeous views over the Eiger mountain. But disappoin**ent when we arrived. Nobody to greet us or help us with the luggage. The tables on the garden next to the entrance were covered of empty packs of cigarettes and overflowing ashtrays. When we arrived at the front desk, there was only one person, who took care of the couple of friends that were travelling with us, and suddenly a guy appeared that seemed to have just jumped out of bed and hastily took our luggage. As check-in was not until 3 PM, we went out to enjoyed the day. Came back a 2:50 PM and the room still wasn’t available because check-in was at 3 as the front desk person repeated. I would have hoped that 10 minutes to 3, the room would be ready… I was told to wait in the lobby. No drinks. No service. At that point I really was not feeling welcome. The tables in the lobby were covered in dirty cups everywhere. After 10 minutes, I go to the front desk and finally can get checked in. This is when I am handed a pass for public transports and a discount voucher for the ski pass. Would have been more useful in the morning that when the day was over. I then go to the room: no luggage. I had to phone the front desk to get it delivered. The view was as promised: gorgeous! The room however, very meh. It had a vibe of the early 90’s. Carpet’s colours washed off by the sun. Outdated furbishing, bathroom included. Cheap plastic ashtray turned upside down on the balcony that was covered in a fake grass carpet. Certainly not worth 660 CHF a night (ca. 700 USD). We had booked a massage a few weeks prior, lucky for us they changed our slot but we still had our trea**ent. Our friends however, booked in August and the hotel cancelled without any notification because a massage therapist was sick and they reallotted the slot my friends booked to someone else. The gastronomic restaurant was supposed to be closed but our friends managed to get a 7-course menu organized. We were all very excited but disappointed as the dishes got served. First dish was so small we thought it was an amuse-bouche. Then we had a mere soup that was so sweet, it could have been a dessert. And then a scoop of passion fruit ice-cream. I will not mention all the dishes, but the menu was really uneventful and unworthy of a 14 Gault & Millau restaurant. Also no explanation provided about the dishes when they were getting served. At that stage, we suspected it was not the food of the gastronomic restaurant, but they served us the same menu they were serving the night before for New Year’s Eve. Menu with wine turned out to be 230 CHF (ca. 250 USD) per person. Pretty hefty for what we got. After dinner we went to the lobby’s bar for a last drink. Again, the table was dirty and I had to ask the waitress to clean it. Check-out the next day was also very laborious with a guy with messed up hair, again, not a good image for a

Good morning, We spent two nights in this hotel, during a small ski stay. We had a family room with my wife and my two girls adolescents, the room is large enough and the spacious bathroom also, The young woman who welcomed us was very sympathetic and made the effort to speak French. The hotel has a very good breakfast, there is also a parking underground at €15 per night, the last day we could leave the car until 15:00. The hotel is ideally located near the tracks and shops, not need to touch the car during the stay.

Nice mountain view from the room, but the room is not big. The hotel located 10 mins walk from the Grindlewald station and 2 mins walk from the First Bahn to go Grindlewald First. The breakfast is nice but it’s only open at 7am hence it’s quite rush if you have early activity which you have to leave the hotel early e.g to go to Jung frau.

Amazing place. - Incredible view from all rooms and the terrace. The best in Grindelwald. - Delicious and varied breakfast, nice range of teas/tisanes. - Black out curtains - We stayed in one of the few apartments and there was a washer and dryer - so helpful. Everything you would need eg dishwasher tablets and plenty of plates/cups etc. - Mosquito nets on the windows for fly-free ventilation. A quick 8 min walk downhill to dinner in Grindelwald, but a more exerting walk back uphill. Note that the car charging didn’t work so well, but the reception were very helpful and allowed us to use a domestic power point (albeit it was very slow). We didn’t do half board or dinner as it seemed to be a v limited menu and fairly quiet ambiance - not suitable for our younger children. The daily menu looked lovely though.

The hotel is halfway up the hill, some distance from the Grindelwald center and the train station. The hotel also has a shuttle bus that can be transported. We are self-driving. There is free parking in the hotel. It is relatively close to the cable car station of the first mountain. There are not many types of breakfast at the hotel. But it is enough, the biggest feature is the scenery, so beautiful! Whether it is a room or a place to have breakfast, look out for the snowy mountain, if you come to grindelwald next time, you will stay here!

Hotel location is very good, the balcony room can see the whole town and the snowy mountains in the distance, the first morning sun shines on the top of the mountain to outline a circle of Phnom Penh; the front desk service is very kind and gives a good travel advice; especially need to be grand The dinner is very good. We recommend that we buy a dinner package when we check in. We can order 60/person for 4 days in a row. You can enjoy a package price of 30/person for every 4 days. Every night, you can change the menu. Every night, the menu is carefully matched. Can also be adjusted according to preferences, fresh ingredients, cooking a certain level, beef, lamb, seafood buffet buffet buffet praise; even my lazy people who do not want to code words have to comment!

I've been coming to Regina for several decades. It has always been a home away from home. It is one of very few hotels that has managed to keep the luxury and allure throughout many years. They adhere to a very high standard on every level. For many it might feel antiquated, but if you're looking for something that is truly unique, that has stood the test of time and is not just another generic modern day luxury hotel, this is the place to be. There's not many hotels where you can sit in a lounge by a warm log fire, playing a board game while a pianist is playing. It's a hotel that is filled with history, warmth and kindness.

Halfway up the mountain, Wengen stands down for 5 minutes and faces the snowy mountains. The sun is very abundant and the scenery is very good! There is a supermarket nearby, and there is a hotel restaurant downstairs. The package price is around 30 Swiss francs. The front desk staff is very good and very enthusiastic. recommend!

Stayed here for a night after a gap of 30 years - amazing views! Superb location with traditional rooms. Quiet and expect to escape from TV and your phone. Very helpful staff who really look after you. Breakfast was good and plenty of places in Wengen for dinner if you don’t do half board. Very minor feedback- kettles in room would be good for those of us who like coffee with our first dawn view of the Jungfrau

We had one night here en route to the south, but would like to come back and explore the area further. We thought that the room rate and breakfast were excellent value, particularly for Switzerland. The hotel has been well maintained to a good 4 star level (it's a 5 star review, but for a 4 star hotel). Nice, old fashioned decor (1890s Belle Epoque meets 1980s), lovely people at reception, a grand room for the restaurant (not used) and for breakfast) and very comfortable beds. We will return!
