Hotel Alpenblick

“Switzerland”

Absolutely great. We had a room on the third floor of the house with a skylight. No good if you are tall as roof slopes but being shorter it was lovely to see the mountain during the day and stars at night as no light pollution. We were well looked after and nice food.

Packed lunch everyday. Eventhough very busy the staff were always very helpful.

“Excellent food and service”

My wife and I traveled as a group from the UK to visit Jungfrau region aka Top of Europe The area is a premier Swiss alpine destination and this hotel sits local to everything needed. Excellent food and attention

“Holiday”

Fantastic stay here. Lovely friendly staff. Room and facilities were good. Good food. Great location would return. Highly recommend.

“OK, great location, but lacking in certain areas.”

A friendly hotel and couldn’t fault the staff at all but we were quite disappointed at the size of our room which was very small and considering how much we had paid for just a six day holiday we would have expected more than what we got.

A friendly hotel and couldn’t fault the staff at all but we were quite disappointed at the size of our room which was very small and considering how much we had paid for just a six day holiday we would have expected more than what we got. I’m over 6 feet tall and it was literally impossible for me to use the lavatory in our small bathroom as it was tucked away in a corner of the room next to the shower cubicle with next to no room to manoeuvre at all, so I had to go to the first floor to use the general use toilet on the landing there instead. As for the food, I think they were perhaps trying to be too Cordon bleu when all everyone wanted in our group was just some good hearty food after a long day on the mountains. We had three soups during our five day stay, Pumpkin, Red Cabbage, and Broccoli. Who thought those up, what happened to just Beef broth, Mushroom, tomato soup etc. which people would have more preferred. the red cabbage soup was not generally well received so stop trying to be too clever. Most of the deserts were passable but strange that we were never given a taste of Switzerland such as Strudel for instance. The one day we had a fondue but rather than the traditional cheese fondue we had a meat one which most people didn’t really take to. The mains were also just OK but again one felt they were trying to be too clever, and where they gave us a half cooked and sliced potato with a slither of cheese on top, most people would have just preferred some mash, boiled, or roast potatoes. The packed lunch each day was a bit stingy as well, two small triangle sandwiches and a bottle of water. The fruit was usually an orange but where on a mountain can you sit and have time to peel it, whereas just an apple or banana would have been much easier, so consequently I never took an orange for that reason. Overall, for what we paid I would have expected a better standard of accomodation and expected the evening meal to have been more substantial, but on the plus side it was in a beautiful location, the staff were excellent, and the view from our bedroom window was pretty good.
