​Overall Rating



Nice family-run hotel in a great location in Wengen. A recent refit has been done well but needs some softening. Not quite at level of quality the "boutique" label would imply.

Rooms



Good size and recently renovated. Functional rather than luxurious.

Beds



Hard and not particularly comfortable.

Food & Beverage



The hotel restaurant was a pleasant but somewhat bland space helped out by beautiful views. Breakfast had a decent selection including good quality hot selections. Dinner menu was pricey and mixed quality but pizzas were good.

Cleanliness



Overall, the hotel was extremely clean. Would have been 5 stars except they missed servicing our room one of the days. Had to request refills of bathroom amenities.

Service



Very friendly and welcoming service overall. It would have been nice to offer some help with the bags to and from the station however.

Location



The hotel is very close to the centre of the village and the station. Views down the Lauterbrunnen valley and up to to mountains were stunning.

Amenities



A few simple enhancements could shift this hotel from good to excellent in line with the boutique pitch. Everything you need but no frills.

Description Accuracy



Overall, what was described and the hotel website's pictures were accurate.

Extras



There weren't really an extras to note however the bar area with the open fire was a nice place to start the evening. Improvements in the quality of the furnishings and softening of the decor would provide a more luxurious feel.

Overall value



Despite the peak season timing, the accommodation pricing was good value and the quality better than other similarly priced options.

Would I stay again?



Overall it was a good experience and while I would be inclined to try other options in the same location, I would stay here again.
