The room was clean and had a nice little deck to sit on. The elevator was broken and we had to walk up 3 flights of stairs to our room. The bed was the most uncomfortable I have ever slept on.... it was like sleeping on springs. The front desk guy was very nice.

Very basic facilities, rickety bed and waferthin pillows, no in-room coffee station/hair dryer etc. The toilet/shower was so small that i had to rotate on the spot to enter exit. Really basic , however location is good. Sister hotel tenerhof is newer and looks better

But for me

Fine as a budget short stop, but doesn’t look or smell nice. Hotel is really dated, bathroom is in need of rapid update (shower pressure is good, but that it’s set to hit sideways, about 4 ft off the bath ground level was weird). I spend a lot of time in different hotel beds and can usually sleep anywhere. This mattress was not comfortable and the walls are paper thin. At circa £140 a night, I wanted better than this. Also no tea making facilities available. But, it was clean and well located.

We just needed the basics, bed and bathroom. If you are looking for a refrigerator or coffee maker in your room, you won't get it. It is located right in the center of town, which was perfect for us. We just needed a place to sleep after hiking all day.

Better to share a bathroom as a solo traveller

Service great. Location good. Be aware reception is in the adjacent building… and they close at 9pm. Room was a solo room w bathroom…. Old and not in great condition. Not a great outlook and bed uncomfortable. I needed to stay an extra night and could only book a single/solo shared bathroom room… ironically it cost a little more than w a bathroom, but it was so much better. The hotel was fine and fine enough for a single night stay. But book the shared bathroom option of your a solo traveller. That room was on the top floor, had a balcony, better design and better bed! Shared bathroom very clean. Review is for the single room w bathroom.

Alpina urgently needs renovations. Shutters cannot be fixed. Aircon in the bathroom is deafening. Sink in the bathroom stinks moldy. Cupboard stinks sweaty. You can hear everything, what people say in the next room. Booking price of 177 CHF is a joke for what the hotel offers. Do not go there.
