Hotels Near Spittelmattesee in Kandersteg

We stayed at the hotel for 3 nights. The staff was very friendly, especially the waiter and the receptionist, a big thank you to both of them. It seemed to us that the staff would work 14 hours since we always saw the same faces. We can highly recommend the restaurant, the price/performance ratio was very good. The rooms didn't look like the pictures. Some things didn't work, such as the toilet fan or the missing lamp. The wellness area has a small sauna, the Roman bath looked like a construction site and the brine bath wasn't heated enough for me. In addition, there was only a massage table in the relaxation room, which was controlled by a robot/AI. If you like machines more than people... Breakfast was a little disappointing, fruit wasn't cut, no veggies, pancakes were just left out until cold. Anyone who values a delicious breakfast will not be happy there.

Can enjoy the hotel hot spring, very clean, few people, quiet, comfortable, spacious, breakfast is more abundant, hot spring scenery is also ok, favorite is less people, but there are a lot of people in the town

My husband and I recently spent 2 nights at Hotel Waldhaus during a two week hiking trip around Switzerland and we loved our experience! First, the property is lovely, well-styled, and well maintained. We were in a balcony room with an amazing view of the mountains. Our room was ready early (which was great after our hike from Grindelwald), it was nicely appointed, and very clean. We were on the 2nd floor which had a huge shared balcony with absolutely stunning views. Second, every single staff member we encountered was incredibly nice, kind, welcoming, and genuinely interested in making our stay special. I wish I had written down all their names so I could mention them individually (for some reason I thought I’d remember even though we stayed at 8 different places on this trip). You can tell this is a good work environment because of the staff’s outstandingly pleasant attitude. One person we interacted regularly with was Lorenzo, who took extraordinarily good care of us. Third, the FOOD! Both nights we took the fixed dinner menu and both nights were fantastic. I would consider the meals “special occasion” meals, that’s how good it the food was. The service was attentive and knowledgeable, great wine selection. During the meal Lorenzo and Joshua (a member of the family that owns/runs the restaurant) stopped by to chat with us about our day, our stay, answer any questions, and make sure everything was as expected with our experience. And it wasn’t “forced” attention - - it was comfortable and natural, and they both were genuinely interested in talking with us and ensuring that our entire experience was outstanding! I’m smiling just writing this review because it’s bringing back good memories! Thank you Waldhaus team for a wonderful stay!

Das „The Cambrian“ ist ein sehr gut geführtes Haus mit Wellness-Einrichtung in Adelboden. Die Rezeption ist sehr höflich. Man bekommt, und das ist nur noch selten der Fall, sein Hotelzimmer gezeigt und erläutert. Das war sehr angenehm. Das Hotelzimmer (Junior Suite ist Panorama-View) war sehr schön eingerichtet. Bequemes Bett, Sofa mit Wohnzimmertisch, großer Flachbildfernseher, Telefon und grosses Badezimmer mit Dusche, sorgten für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt. Der Zimmerservice war ebenfalls ausserordentlich freundlich und Rücksichtsvoll. Der Wellnessbereich besteht aus einem Innenpool mit kaltem Wasser und einem Aussenpool mit warmen Wasser. Weiterhin besteht die Möglichkeit zum Sauna Gang in einer Trockensauna bei 85 Grad Celsius sowie einem Dampfbad. Wellness-Angebote wie beispielsweise Massagen sind buchbar und man sollte diese bereits bei Hotelbuchung buchen, da sehr gefragt. Die Damen und Herren im Wellnessbereich erstehen ihr Handwerk und sind ebenfalls sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Kommen wir zum Restaurant und zum Frühstück. Bei Frühstück gibt es wohl alles was man sich wünscht. In einem schönen Ambiente mit Panoramasicht kann man hier sein Frühstück genießen. Aber auch beim Abendessen gibt es nichts zu meckern. Ausgezeichnete Küche und ausgezeichneter Service erwartet hier den Gast. Selbst wenn man vom Menü etwas austauschen möchte, ist dies sofort möglich. Auch hier darf ich die Freundlichkeit und Serviceorientiertheit des Personals hervorheben. Das Personal spricht Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch und Kroatisch. So zumindest habe ich es mitbekommen; aber nicht jeder spricht Deutsch, was allerdings nicht wirklich ein Problem darstellt, da die Anzahl der Servicekräfte herausragend ist. Für PKW´s gibt es kostenpflichtige Parkplätze vor dem Hotel und in der Tiefgarage. 18 CHF pro Nacht zahlt man hier für die Unterbringung des Fahrzeugs. Auch Hunde sind willkommen, 35 CHF pro Nacht ist für die Unterbringung des Wau Wau zu zahlen. Dies dürfte in der Tat etwas billiger sein, denn Futter etc ist mitzubringen. Wir hatten ein wunderschönes verlängertes Wochenende und freuen uns bereits jetzt auf unseren nächsten Besuch.

What a wonderful end to my trip! I saved this till the end of my trip to end with a little bit of luxury. Absolutely brilliant from when I arrived - all the staff were so friendly (which was refreshing as my previous place weren’t too friendly) They gave me a different room to the one I had booked (a better one!) which was a brilliant surprise! The room felt luxurious and homely with a view of the gorgeous lake :) The spa facilities are brilliant (and were super quiet due to assuming it being ‘off season’ - there was only one other person I saw in there but on a different room) so I had the hot tub to myself. The cosy lounge is just that, it looks so cosy and beautiful For breakfast there was a large selection of things to choose from and was super quick service. I very much recommend this place - wish I could have stayed a little longer - thank you so much!

An old fashioned, not specially nice grand hotel from outside but very nicely refurbished and maintained inside. Service is as expected at this level: courteous and efficient. Our room was not extremely large but very comfortable with excellent bedding and a pleasant balcony. The hall and the bar are somewhat impersonal and uninviting and the few flashing lights behind the pianist were certainly unable to help for this. The spa (I'm talking about the sauna area not the swimming pool with kids that we didn't use) looks pretty new and is very well made. However it is quite small and the - very pleasant - relaxation area, takes a good part of it. This leaves not much surface for the rest and on top of that the hotel unfortunately chose to split it in two zones (thus removing precious square meters for a very small and unnecessary textile area). The result is that saunas are mostly extremely small. A real pity given the potential of the place. The spa is conveniently accessible the day of departure which is very good. But why opening half of it 3 hours after the other?? This is disappointing and incomprehensible! Excellent breakfast, free outside parking. Wifi a bit weak in some areas but otherwise ok. And a of course, as we are in Switzerland, a few pettiness that are always surprising when you spend several hundreds franc a night in a 5* resort... like the inside parking more expensive in winter (!) or the second egg in the eggs Benedict for 4.50 extra (!!)... come on...

We stayed for a week in the self-catering apartments opposite the hotel, which were perfect for us as we wanted the freedom to prepare our own meals. The staff are very kind, friendly, and helpful. We had breakfast in the hotel every morning and it was very good. The apartments have all the basics that you need to prepare simple meals and there is plenty of space to relax in the evening. The beds were comfortable and it's very peaceful; we slept well after our hikes! The hotel is perfectly situated for many hikes in the valley; we walked to Alpenruh, climbed the Gerihorn, went up to Griesalp, Gamchi, and Obergumpel. We also took a drive to Kandersteg and swam in the lake at Oschinensee. If staying ask about the gästekarte as it gives you discounts on certain activities and also free rides on the Kiental chairlift. A great holiday. Will definitely stay again.
