Lauterbrunnen hotels

Pros: The staff at hotel Edelweiss make it a special place. Extremely helpful with regard to suggesting activities and making our stay as comfortable as possible. Couldn't be more family friendly, they even have a playroom for the little ones. We have a 20 month old son and he had a great time, definitely the most kid friendly place we have ever stayed. Food was top-notch as well (breakfast and dinner). Room was small but clean and great views from the balcony. Wengen was the highlight of our trip and Hotel Edelweiss had a lot to do with that. Thank you!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Staff Nice and cooperative-esp Thomas.They did arrange Cattle on request.

Cons: Too expansive price for such a facility. That too in offseason-CHF 190 per day is not on for 2 star Hotel. We expected much better when booked with such a price.

Pros: Good location and friendly staff.

Cons: Needs some fresh fruit at breakfast.

Pros: I loved everything about this hotel. The location is perfect, just a short (if steep, but you're in the Alps!) walk down the hill from the train station. Every single member of the staff was helpful in every way -- from welcoming me to the hotel and showing me around the facilities, to helping me plan my activities/hikes for the 5 days I'd be in the region, they were all so kind and lovely to take the time to provide insiders' information for this newcomer to the area. The room itself was basic but had great water pressure in the shower and an extremely comfortable bed for a good night's sleep after a long day of hiking...and the view from the balcony was breathtaking. The sauna and honesty bar were icing on the cake. Finally, you MUST eat dinner there -- the food (a set menu each night, they let you know the selection beforehand and there's always a fondue option) is outstanding!

Cons: Not a thing.

Pros: The provided services were beyond the expectations. Amazing view from the balcony and extremely kind, friendly and helpful staff. For our next visit in Wengen, Hotel Edelweiss remains our first choice where to stay. Thank you Daniel and team, Kind Regards, Branimir Zagorski

Pros: The Hotel Edelweiss is by far the best hotel we've stayed in Switzerland over the last 5 years. The staff is lovely and really helpful, the food (dinner and breakfast) were really tasty and the room was comfortable and super clean. The manager had a infectious enthusiasm for the place and was more than happy to help us find the best hiking routes. The entire staff were lovely. The view from our room was breathtaking.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: wonderful hotel nice staff.nice meal

Pros: The breakfast was excellent and way beyond our expectation. They offered choices more than any other hotels we stayed in Switzerland and they tasted all very good. The window view is very nice especially under a sunny day.

Pros: Room size was great for several day stay. Food was very good. And all the staff and owners were friendly, knowledgeable, overall just great.

Pros: the hotel is right in front of the station. the hotel staff waited at the station and helped with our luggages.

Cons: you cannot have moutain view in your room. that may only be possible when you are in balcony or in a public rest area.

Pros: We stayed at the Eiger Swiss Hotel for 3 nights of our 2-week honeymoon throughout Europe. This was the BEST part of our trip. The journey to Murren is worth it. The views, hiking, food and alpine spring water are absolutely spectacular. Last, the hotel was superb. The staff is friendly, the hotel restaurant is wonderful, the breakfast is perfect. We stayed in the James Bond 007 suite and it was worth every penny. We will return to this gem of a hotel!

Pros: This place was amazing from every standpoint. Location can't be beat. Views are incredible. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beautiful pool and sauna. Room was great and the beds were comfy!

Cons: I like it all!

Pros: Everything and everyone were outstanding e.g. from front desk (Sylvia)to restaurant especially Carla in the hotel restaurant. View from room was excellent and food in hotel restaurant was amazing!

Cons: Can't think of one thing. We stayed in a suite with beautiful view!

Pros: The service and the food were excellent.

Pros: Food was excellent in the Stublie. Staff were very helpful. Room had a beautiful view

Cons: Main resturant and bar were a bit basic

Pros: Staff was very helpful.

Pros: Great pool. Great location.

Cons:

Pros: The pool & suana, the view.

Cons: Bar area could have been more "cozy"

Pros: Helpful, professional staff, ideal location, beautiful view, excellent food and service. the in-house sauna and pool facilities were A++

Cons: The beds were uncomfortable.

Pros: Room very clean and location was excellent.

Cons: For the standard of the hotel we thought that the food was disappointing.

Pros: The Eiger staff were very friendly and helpful, and from what we could tell, the location is unbeatable (across the street from the train station, but with an unbelievable view). I wish our stay had been longer, but we'll certainly be back.

Cons:

Pros: The location is amazing. The staff is friendly. The restaurant and VIEW is the best in town. Murren is a beautiful place, and I believe this is the best place to stay in Murren. We will definitely be back!

Pros: Breakfast was excellent with a lot of variety. It was served in a pretty dining room with lovely views. The owner kept checking in with us to see if we needed anything else. We were very pleased!

Pros: Quiet clean room. Great breakfast best restaurant in Murren for dinner. Thank you Ruth and staff .

Pros: Great location and a great restaurant inside the hotel.

Pros: Excellent staff, great food! Will be back in the future!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Our stay here was great and Ruth & Otto, the owners, as well as the rest of the staff are just fantastic! We drove, so we parked in the lower lot and took the tram up through Gimmelwald. We were expecting a pretty long walk with our luggage, but it wasn't too bad at all (400 meters and about 5 minutes), and had nice smooth streets. The property is located on the North side of town, which we liked, on a quieter road, off the main street. The rooms are located on floors 1 & 2, so there will be stairs to climb. They don't have an elevator, but the stairs are wide and nice. The rooms were very nice, had great beds and the bedding was wonderful too. Our room was very spacious and clean and even the bathroom had a lot of space and a nice sink area. The shower was nice, had nice pressure, and got hot quickly. We didn't find AC in the room, but we didn't look because it wasn't needed the time of year we stayed. Our room also had a balcony, which was really cool because of the views and also all the windows. It also had a TV with English channels, but we mostly kept it on the Cam channel, which showed live views of the tops of the trams/mountains. A HUGE BONUS to us staying here was the FABULOUS breakfast! Our host for breakfast was one of the owners, Ruth, and she did so much to make us happy. She made my wife hot chocolate every morning and had a full buffet of 5-7 breads, local cheeses, local jellies, eggs (soft and hard boiled), yogurt, milk, juice, meats and even had some granola bars for your hikes later in the day! We WILL stay here again and HIGHLY recommend a stay here.

Cons: Everything was just great! I guess the stairs would have been our least favorite thing. We were on the 2nd floor, so the 2 flights at the end of a hiking day was not great, but they made the hotel more quaint! I think an elevator here would ruin the rustic feel.

Pros: The scenery out of our balcony was beautiful. (Snow capped mountain). No lift but the staff helped us carried our luggage up 3rd floor. Their breakfast is simple but super delicious. The room has no kettle but we were able to borrow one for free throughout our stay.

Cons: The hotel is about 5-10 minutes walk away from the murren station with some uphill. Tiring to push if you have large luggages.

Pros: Fantastic location with an amazing view from our room, very clean and comfortable facilities, friendly and welcoming hosts.

Cons: N/A

Pros: Tobias & his wife were so friendly & helpful.

Pros: View and room was fabulous. Excellent coffee machine. Staff/owners were very accommodating and friendly.

Cons: Would love to have had a private bathroom.

Pros: Barbara was excellent, she welcomed us with a smile and made sure we were well settled at Ester's House. On our first walk about we were welcomed by the mountains, fresh air and the cows and goats. Oh yes the kitty cats of the village. Our hiking to Murren and beyond made our stay prefect.

Cons: Prefect, sharing a bath was Not a problem.

Pros: We especially appreciated the personal conversation with Tobias. He is exceptionally warm and friendly.

Cons: Our room was quite warm at night, even with the window open slightly. Room 5. The lighting in the bathroom was a bit too dim.

Pros: The room is sufficient size for solo travellers. Great view of the mountains from my room! Shared facilities are surprisingly very clean and kept neat and tidy. Anyone who has stayed in a hostel or share house would know that the bathrooms and kitchen are usually quite ugh, although cleanliness issues are usually due to user problems. Thankfully, the other guests (mature couples) during my stay are very considerate. I shared a bathroom with a couple from another room and did not have any issues. Able to cook in the shared kitchen and didn't have to wait long for a turn since I only met 2 couples during my stay. A number of free-to-use condiments (e.g. jam) provided. Coffee machine with coffee pods. Co-use room slippers provided.

Cons: Very early check out (by 9:30am). Can sometimes be difficult to find the host since she's not stationed at a desk but moving around the house doing her duties.

Pros: Beautiful location and view from room 6

Cons: Nothing not to like

Pros: The view from our large bedroom windows looked out on to the Alps. Our room was large with a table and chairs, in addition to a couch. We cooked our own dinners in the fully equipped kitchen. It was fun to socialize with other guests.

Cons: I loved everything about our stay there.

Pros: Location is unbeatable, one of the best views in the alps.

Cons: Everything is madly expensive in Switzerland

Pros: Our stay at Hotel Waldrand was everything we expected. The view from our balcony and room was amazing. They could not do enough for us. A great breakfast and we stayed for dinner also which was everything we needed. The hikes from here were so much quieter and exceptionally scenic.

Pros: The best thing about this hotel restaurant is the owners Karin and Marcus. Outstanding and friendly service. They treat guests like family. The hotel is very clean and comfortable. The rooms have a beautiful view of Jungfraujoch. The breakfasts were delicious and filling. They also serve lunch and dinner with a good selection of items. The first drive to the hotel through a tunnel and narrow mountain road may cause you to wonder where you are. But the drive was actually pleasant on subsequent drives to the hotel. We discovered that the area behind the hotel above the hotel has a wonderful hiking trail up the mountain to Sulwald. There is also a cable car a short walk from the hotel that will take you up the mountain for an easy one hour walk down. Isenfluh is a very short drive from Lauterbrennen where we took a train to Jungfraujoch. Back at the hotel later that evening we experienced a breathtaking sunset over the Jungfrau that made our stay at Hotel Waldrand unforgettable.

Pros: One of our best stays in Switzerland. The owners are very friendly and attentive. The view is magnificent and the food delicious. We can only thank you for the reception.

Pros: Isenfluh is a cute hamlet overlooking the Lauterbrunnen valley. We really enjoyed the views and were able to drive to Grindewald, Interlaken, and Lauterbrunnen with ease. They served an outstanding breakfast and offered great hospitality!

Cons: Nothing. Our stay here exceeded our expectations!

Pros: Karin and Markus were so warm and helpful. Room had a view that we will likely not have again! Stunning. The Restaurant food was great and our entire stay was perfect.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Superb quiet location in sight of the Jungfrau. Karin and Markus are excellent hosts, plus breakfasts and dinner in the restaurant were lovely.

Pros: Nice, quiet location, good sized room, friendly staff, good food at the restaurant

Cons: There is no wifi

Pros: The breakfast has enough variety to make it fulfilling. Hams, bacon, breads, yogurts, juices, ceral, coffee etc. It was delicious.

Cons: The carpets was not 100% clean but still clean enough. Had some biscuits crumbs still left under the bed.

Pros: Everything! The hotel is absolutely charming and the views are simply incredible!

Cons: I can't think of a single thing except that we didn't stay there long enough.

Cons: Different type of one bed room with the same price (depend on your luck). My friend got the larger & nicer room.

Pros: Hotel is very clean, cosy and has friendly staff

Pros: Staff were very welcoming, lovely hotel. All the necessities were there and the restaurant was fantastic, amazing food.

Cons: Maybe a kettle in the room would have been great but not a deal breaker.

Pros: Location was perfect to enjoy the Berner Oberland, centrally located with easy access to the beautiful Swiss Alps in the Jungfrau Region! Hospitality was outstanding in this family owned operation with a nice buffet breakfast included, but the best value in the region is their four course dinner served in their spacious dinning room every evening for approximately $23, a real bargain and very delicious

Cons: Only possible drawback is that you have an uphill walk to the train station but it is only about a 10 minute walk and they are accommodating if you would need a ride ( my wife and I are 76 years of age and handled it fine)!

Pros: Just an outstanding stay, exceptional staff. Great value....view of the valley is unbelievable

Pros: Balcony view of the mountain was great. Being here in shoulder season was a plus. It helped us feel peaceful and relaxed. I would chose Wengen again if coming back to this region.

Cons: The vegetarian options for dinner were poor. I do not consider cheese and egg on toast an adequate dinner selection.

Pros: My rooms balcony has a nice view. Decent food quality of both breakfast and the dinner. Staffs are helpful. Short walking distance to train station. Room was fully remodeled recently. Room was very clean.

Pros: We really enjoyed our stay. The room was very clean and comfortable. The hostess, Jeanette, was extremely helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was very good with homemade jams made by Jeanette and her mother-n-law. Everything was excellent. The view from the dining-room was spectacular.

Pros: Great location, awesome views from room balcony, close to the Murren train station, and friendly and helpful staff!!

Cons: No elevator.

Pros: Everything- the location, the cleanness, the breakfast and the restaurant at the hotel. Jannette is the nicest host, she made it complete! Mürren is unique and the most breathtaking spot in the Alps we have ever visited. We would love to come again!

Pros: Owners were very helpful and friendly.

Pros: Very friendly staff. Good, simple restaurant offering seasonal dishes; great views

Pros: We had a wonderful stay. We would recommend this spot to anyone traveling to Murren. Janet and her husband are great host's.

Pros: Loved how close it was to the train station. There is a wonderful walking/hiking trail was right next to the hotel. You can go as long or as short as you desire. The views are incredible. The breakfast was better than anywhere else in Europe. My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon and they decorated our room for us - nice touch! The owner is also a chef and the dinners here are amazing! The Carrot Soup is delicious!

Cons: Wifi was spotty in the rooms, but worked great in commons area. They are upgrading the wifi soon it sounds like.

Pros: Thomas and Janet made us feel welcome and comfortable. They provided thorough information about local activities and restaurants. The view from our room was spectacular. There were hiking trails available a few yards from the hotel entrance. A great experience.

Pros: The restaurant was great! The staff was amazing! The views were breathtaking!

Pros: Mountain views from our room's porch were breathtaking. Our apt was simply furnished and comfortable. Included breakfast was good. Also ate dinners there; terrific soups! Owners on site; low key and friendly. Jeannette booked a terrific massage for me. Tom made great food. So much hiking! Lovely waterfalls and glaciers! Giant cows with their gigantic cowbells, coming to the lower pastures for the cold season, even taking over the road at times. Just wonderful.

Cons: I suppose prices in town are not exceptionally high, considering the remote location, but it IS expensive. Even though the town is car-free, there seemed to be a lot of construction vehicles zooming around

Pros: The hotel is in a great location for all sorts of hiking and climbing in the mountains around Mürren and on the Schilthorn. The view is just wonderful. The breakfast each morning was tasty and filling. We had to leave early on the last day. Jeanette made it easy and even packed us a lunch bag. That was very kind and thoughtful.

Pros: Very helpful staff, gluten free options available for breakfast and dinner, gorgeous view from balcony

Pros: Spacious room for a solo stay, with good views as well!

Pros: We LOVED it here!! The views were amazing, the restaurant was delicious and so cozy, the patio tree lights were a very nice touch, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Very clean, lovely, cozy lounge, nice big sauna, and the list goes on. Great location as well. Will absolutely stay here again next time we are in Switzerland.

Pros: THE VIEW! location was perfect, breakfast was always lovely and the lounge was a great room to chill out in. I also loved the history of the hotel and how the decor reflected that.

Cons: The only real complaint for me would be the dinner menu, although I understand that this may be a personal thing.

Pros: Lovely hotel. Perfect location

Cons: Loved everything

Pros: We loved the location, view, restaurant, sauna, and friendly staff! We definitely recommend Hotel Schonegg! We will be back

Pros: Wow, I loved staying here. It felt like a beautiful lodge. I’ve never stayed anywhere with turn-down service - a simple but lovely touch. The bed was incredibly comfortable & the room was bright and cozy - the view was wonderful. Breakfast was good and the staff were great - the folks at the front desk were wonderful and were eager to provide recommendations for hikes & activities in the area. They streamed the live cameras from Schilthorn and Jungfraujoch which helped a lot for trip planning. I loved the sauna! I debated staying in Mürren but would return to Wengen again just to stay at this hotel.

Pros: Everything was perfect!! All the staff are professional and kind, and the room is very cosy, the balcony view was stunning! Also the breakfast is good, lot of choice and you can having your breakfast with the stunning views!

Pros: Eiger Guesthouse in Murren is a wonderful place to stay. The location, directly across from the train station, is fantastic, and the views are world-class from the rooms facing the mountains. Eiger Guesthouse is a most welcoming place, with a homey feel to it, a nice pub to sit in and meet new friends, and an excellent restaurant - we had 4 wonderful dinners here. The morning breakfast is a good, typical European style breakfast, but the breads they serve are phenomenal. However, the single best attribute of Eiger Guesthouse has to be the incredible staff. Ema, Jose, Philippa, all are front facing members of a staff that seems like they work in tandem as a family....and they go out of their way to make you feel like a member of their extended family while you are there. Many places have a staff that are "hospitality nice", but the staff at Eiger Guesthouse are genuinely nice, and go way beyond "hospitality nice" to make sure you have the best time you can possibly have in Murren. I have traveled to many places, stayed in all types of lodging (from budget hotels to Ritz Carltons), and I can honestly say the staff here is the best we have encountered anywhere, and a big part of what makes Murren feel like such a special place.

Cons: With any structure that is over 150 years old, the bathrooms, while very clean, are a bit small. But not unusual for most boutique places in Europe...

Pros: Cozy spot for a family

Pros: Everything, the room, the area, the breakfast and most importantly the fantastic hard working staff

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: The scenery around Murren is absolutely beautiful. The bus, train and gondola it takes to get there are easily accessed and on time. The outing by gondola to Schilthorn is a lot of fun and you feel on top of the world. Murren is a beautiful town to walk around in with good places to eat. The hike down to Gimmelwald is breathtaking. We look forward to going back to Murren in the future. Jose and Emma at Eiger Guesthouse are awesome.

Cons: Our stay was too short.

Pros: Beautiful view. Helpful staff. Right near train station

Cons: No elevator, had to climb 3 floors of stairs

Pros: Fillipa in particular was a great host although everyone was fantastic including the manager.

Cons: Great views, good food and breakfast included. Located right across from the train station.

Pros: Ema and her team could not have been more accommodating. The team went out of their way to make our stay a great experience. The staff was very welcoming and pleasant to our 5 year old boy.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Fantastic views from our balcony Friendly and helpful staff, especially owner Emma and waiter Francisco

Cons: No elevator

Pros: The owners/staff were super accommodating and over the top helpful in any way they could. The views are spectacular and you can’t get a more perfect place in Mürren!

Pros: The owners were very welcoming and helpful.

Cons: Excellent location. Staff was very helpful and welcoming. Great value!

Pros: The spectacular view over my balcony and the delicious, simple fresh made breakfast each morning. The staff were very good. Would definitely stay here again.

Cons: Just the first night, maybe I had a late shower around 10:30pm the water wasn’t very hot but the following two nights I had it earlier and problem at all.

Pros: The View

Pros: Loved everything about the hotel. Owners and staff were very professional, personable and accessible. Answered all our questions. Booked my paragliding adventure. Breakfast was delicious. Location of hotel was perfect. One could reach out and touch the mountain walls across the valley from the breakfast room. Great hikes. Quiet village.

Cons: Truly nothing. We had a street view room that suited our needs. Always bring wax ear plugs as precaution for noise.

Pros: The location is great. We got a fantastic mountain view. Though I cannot be 100% sure, I think we saw Yungfrau, Monch and Eiger on the left and the Stechelberg valley on the right from the balcony. The hotel is clean, the staff is friendly. We absolutely love Murren. Cable car leads you up to Shcilthorn or down to Gimmelwald/Stechelberg. The easy hike from Murren to Gimmelwald is so enjoyable.

Pros: Very nice (small) room in a well-located hotel and at a great price.

Pros: Hotel Alpina has spectacular views of the mountains and the Lauterbrunnen valley. There are numerous trails to explore as well. Breakfast was good and consisted of cold cuts, cheeses, breads, fruit preserves and hard boiled eggs. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful; everyone spoke English and were more than wiling to help me expand my German. We would absolutely stay here again!!

Cons: Our only complaint was common across Switzerland: the double consisted of two beds shoved together and not really secured together. There were several instances where I would be in the middle snuggled up to my wife and I'd wake up because the beds had started sliding apart and I was sinking between them. I just wish they would tie the beds together. Luckily, this was a minor frustration.

Pros: The view was excellent and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Cons: No full time receptionist. Internet access without own computer is limited. No ice or vending machine. No elevator. Limited ambiance.

Pros: The Hotel Alpina is situated right at cliffside and has marvelous views. request a room overlooking the Eiger, Monch, and Juanfrau ranges.

Pros: Breakfast was fantastic. Could not be a more spectacular view with a better cup of coffee.

Pros: The food and the staff were very good. This was a friendly family hotel and was a very pleasant place to stay.

Cons: There was nothing I did not like.

Pros: The hotel setting had a spectacular view of mountains and valley, the staff was very friendly and the room comfortable.

Cons:

Pros: Location was convienient for exploring the alps. View and scenery was exceptional. Staff was very friendly and helpful

Cons:

Pros: The view was spectacular. The balcony of our room was big and we spent a lot of time admiring the view . The room was clean and staff very helpful. The hotel is also not too far from the Murren cable car station.

Cons: The breakfast could have been better

Pros: The view! Our balcony was on the edge of a cliff 5,000 feet up in the Swiss Alps!

Cons: Don't expect "luxury" very plain rooms, just unbelievable views!

Pros: The location of the Pension Gimmelwald was great especially when carrying a pack. The view from our window was incredible. The room was nice.

Cons: It would be nice if there were some type of meat included with the breakfast.

Pros: The place was in an amazing location! It was so quaint and we loved our stay.

Cons: Could have been a bit cleaner.

Pros: The best thing about this place is the location: at 1min walk from the telecabin to Stechelberg or Mürren. The views? Well, you need to be very unlucky if you visit Gimmelwald or Mürren and your place doesn’t have views.

Cons: Everything else. The place is old, and feels decadent. The floor is full of old carpets, and the walls are cluttered with old decoration, all dusty. Flies are plentiful. Stuff was ok-ish, but uninspiring. The ‘buffet’ breakfast is so so: very little choice and boring. You may want to try somewhere else around, you will do you a favor.

Pros: Location and the neighbourhood is excellent.

Pros: The view from the bar porch in the back was absolutely stunning. The owner of the pension is incredible. The hearty homemade dinners we had at Pension Gimmelwald were the best we had our entire Europe trip (not even joking). Ideal location, comfortable, charming rooms, peaceful surroundings. This was all we could have hoped for and more for our stay in the Alps.

Pros: Beautiful location with nice views, id you are lucky, family wibe.
