Pros +

  • Location‼️Staff‼️
  • The location was good.
  • Very polite staff clean and cosy

Cons -

  • Cow smell
  • The manager was incredibly unpleasant. She gave a lot of attitude and even insisted I’d only booked for one person even though my booking clearly said two. She never apologised for how stressful she made the check in experience even though she then realised she was at fault. This was stress I didn’t need given I’m pregnant.

The appearance from outside was typical Swiss but internally was dated particularly the bathroom. Also, requested a double bed and instead 2 single beds were provided.

The property was dated internally.

Good view from the balcomy

Despite they upgraded us to an apartment (I did not asked for it, however) the bad point was that they provided us just two pillows for four people explaining that for children's pillows we have to pay which looks for me as unexpectedly greedy approach, and neither was specified in the booking terms. We refused to pay and used whatever was handy to use as 'pillows'. There was also a problem with hot water that stopped suddenly more than once. Overall, stuff attitude was also rather unpleasant. Looks like a restaurant that provides also 'hotel' services. Not recommended

I like the vibe. Definitely a winter hotel. Nice view of mountains and all green. But that's all about.

I don't know where to start. Stayed for 2 nights with my wife and a 4 months old baby. Paid almost $200 a night for the room. But I don't think the place we stayed was worth that much. We were given a room with shared bathroom for that rate which I have not seen anywhere on my reservation that it says shared bathroom. If I knew that, I wouldn't book it. It was definitely saying somewhere that bathroom is shared and I missed it so it's on me. However, we got lucky and nobody came to the room next door, so we had to keep the bathroom for ourselves. Hotel is full of flies and room has no AC. It gets really hot during the day, at least in summer time when we visit and you have to open your windows. But guess what? No screen. So you have 2 options. Either die with the heat or try to deal with flies. And it's not 3-4 of them. Bunch of them keep coming in. Bed was very uncomfortable and location was absurd. Nothing nearby. Not even a place to buy a water. Restaurant is closed most of the time and if you didn't buy anything from a store, you are in a very bad luck. Nearest store as far as I observed is in Thun. You can either go buy public busses (takes 2 of them) or get a cab which costs like 70 bucks one way. Very inconvenient if you are not prepared. I might like it more if it was a winter stay, but again who knows what to expect by then.

The surrounding scenery is good, but the traffic is inconvenient and suitable for self-driving.

A woman's service is a little unfriendly.

lovely location, view and rooms

all good. breakfast could be more elaborate

5AshishPosted on: 3-22-2023

Breakfast was okay. Location is okay.

Table lamp was not working. 1blanket is without the cover. In the beginning they asked for extra tax money to pay.

The view in front of hotel is amazing. There is space to park on the street. It's better to come by car since public transport is not so often or easily accessible.

The room was not clean! It was very obvious the bathroom was used before us and not cleaned (used soap, dirty toilet).The description said double bed, but there were actually 2 beds put together with a huge gap inbetween.Breakfast was very poor (no vegetarian options either), but the food was not fresh. They were serving expired butter, which I mentioned to the waitress and she just ignored.

Friendly staff, comfy, quiet, good view from the window

It’s in the mountain, you take 2 buses to reach anywhere, one of those buses runs till 5:30 - 6:00 PM which is a big limitation for us. No alternatives

The location is beautiful and I was travelling with my medium-sized dog and the staff was friendly and were comfortable with the me brining my dog along.

the view

We arrived at check in time (4.00pm) after a long car journey with my children and we had to wait over an hour and 30 mins for them to find our booking. they spent a long time searching in a huge piles of papers to find our booking (I didn’t see a computer!) the staff do not speak English just Swiss German and we could not communicate well. They offered us a drink as an apology though. The breakfast is very poor only a small table with few choices only.

amazing views, very comfortable bed, and great breakfast

wifi was not good

Nice scenery and great views around the hotel.

Uncomfortable beds and very dated rooms. Could do more effort in cleaning. VERY very poor choice for breakfast. Charge high rates for rooms so I guess they can invest a bit more in the above.

8PrasanthyPosted on: 6-28-2022
