The Alphenruhe was very nice. We loved the couple who runs the hotel. Yanna and Andreas, (spelling ?). The breakfast was very good. You can get fresh eggs made. The room was very clean. The bed very comfortable. We had a room with a balcony which was great. Its walkable to the train depending on your ability. It is about a 7 minute walk but part is up hill.

Location: Enjoyed the small town atmosphere away from the crowds of other towns in the area. Offords easy access to mountain adventures via cable car and cog trains. More than enough restaurants to try over several days. Staff: Wonderful! Friendly and helpful. The hotel is small so you see the same staff each day, which was a pleasure. They prepare a nice breakfast. Room: We had a superior view with balcony and took advantage of it each evening. The higher floors offer a view of the valley below. There is currently construction that obscures the view a bit but did not bother us during the stay. I would recommend purchasingvthe Jungfrau Pass if you are stayingbin the area for several day. Well worth it as we used gondolas and train multiple times per day. I would stay here again.

The property is situated at a quiet location and is accessible via a long walk from the station or in-house shuttle transport. The staff members are extremely friendly and helpful towards guest. The breakfast service is very good with its selection and quality. The only drawback was the extra price paid for the view was blocked for development cranes thus ruining the view.

It’s a hidden gem!

This was a cute place with tremendous 360 views of the whole area. The room was small but very comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty and complete with meats, cheeses, fresh bread, yogurt and lots else, even eggs and coffee made to order. We stayed 3 days and felt totally at home! There is about a ten minute uphill walk from the station but the hotel manager will pick you up or drop you off if requested, which we did on the last day because of rain. It was just perfect!

Great location with fantastic staff, room is *very* small, and lacks ammenities compared to what i expect, there's just hand soap and that's it. Not sure if this is normal or not, but every hotel I've been too has had toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, tea making facilities etc. Was kinda a bummer because it meant I had to go buy big bottles that I could only use once or twice.
