This was a lovely hotel in Kandersteg. This is located beside the gondola station and the walking path for the hike to lake. There was a nice restaurant at the hotel that we had a great dinner at and the breakfast was very enjoyable. My family really enjoyed staying here and we would come back again!

We don’t normally do reviews but this place deserves one. Just a gem of a find. Great location, beautiful and comfortable (alpine but modern), and amazing food! (Both the complimentary breakfast and we had a delicious dinner.) and everyone was so helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

Hotel was located directly across from Lake Oeschinensee and a bus ride from Blausee. Restaurant was great and breakfast was delicious. The only issue I had was that there was no elevator. We were on the 3rd floor and after riding 3 hrs of trains/busses I had to then transport my bags up the stairwell.

It was very nice experience for us . The hotel was next to the cable car station with amazing view It was hidden gems Before going Switzerland we did home work where to go but there was a little mention of Oeschinen Lake where you can do hiking sight seeing Barbecue swimming many activities etc in Summer . It was arranged so convenient for Elderly and pregnant Woke up with snowcapped mountains and waterfalls in front of your eyes was amazing Staffs are very friendly Rooms were modern and very clean with Alpine features Parking is free But no lifts to top floor but they will take the luggage for you About 1 hour north to Jungfrau and Interlaken and south to Matterhorn Initially we felt quite remote but we fell in love after staying there We requested early breakfast before scheduled time due to our trip and they let us in . That was very kind We highly recommend
