Wengen was absolutely gorgeous. We loved this hotel, it had a nice indoor pool and bar. The room we stayed in reminded me of a hostel, it was one of the only places that would accept a family of four without getting two separate rooms. The beds were comfortable and there was a balcony overlooking the alps. Rooms are mediocre compared to other places we have stayed but it was clean and comfortable and we would stay here again for the other amenities and location. The food everywhere in wengen is subpar and expensive I would get supplies to make lunch in room. Average meal (breakfast lunch or dinner was around $200 for a family of 4 and was mostly inedible everywhere we went) still worth it for the views and experience!

“Lovely Family Ski Holiday”

We stayed here as a family of four. Our two children were 3 & 4 years old. We had a wonderful stay. The Junior Suite we had was small but fine for us, especially fine for the price we paid which we felt was very reasonable.

We stayed here as a family of four. Our two children were 3 & 4 years old. We had a wonderful stay. The Junior Suite we had was small but fine for us, especially fine for the price we paid which we felt was very reasonable. The bathroom was lovely and we had the most wonderful large balcony with a beautiful view. The staff were all so friendly, helpful and kind to our children. They had toboggans to use, which were great fun on the toboggan run. The pool had a kids session so the kids could play and have fun without upsetting others. The pool was cold though at 28 degrees. The breakfast was amazing. So much choice and all nice quality. We didn't do dinner as it wouldn't have suited our children so can't comment on that. The had a play room for the kids too but unfortunately we weren't aware of it until the last day. The location is perfect. Very near the gondola and a short distance to the train station. The ski room was quite small and hard to use at peak times. If the ski room was better and the pool warmer it would have got 5 stars! We would definitely go again!

“Not a very comfortable sleep”

Hotel is in a beautiful spot. Wengen well technically still part of Interlaken is a 12 minute cog wheel train ride up the hill. Total itself is fairly old. I arrived early but the room wasn't ready so it was pretty much ready by 3:00 p.m. The room that I had is a single which is actually very small and actually has a single bed not just a double bed for one person. I found a kept banging into the wall because of the width of the bed so it's pretty small. The bed can be hard for a lot of people it was for me so they will come up and add a mattress topper to make it a little softer. I must say though I didn't have a good sleep I was a little achy. Breakfast which was included is very average. The typical croissant and bread options. Scrambled eggs in a big bin and a pile of bacon that was quite oily. The pool looks like it would be nice however I didn't use it on this trip since it was just one night. I only stayed here one night because the hotel is closing for 2 months until December when it is busy for skiing. I wouldn't stay here again but the views from the balcony can be nice depending on where they put you I was put on the first floor so there isn't as good of a view.
