Exceptional stay, the staff were very accommodating. There was a day that we have to leave early and will miss breakfast…. Stella packed us food to go! The place is so serene and peaceful the view is amazing especially with foliage how we wished we could have stayed longer to see the peak of foliage.

Fantastic stay will visit again!!

A wonderful stay at hotel Alpenrose. We shall definitely visit again. The setting is idyllic, the hotel is comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was simple but nice. Only thing to be improved was the mattress (which may just not have been to our preference) and we would have preferred more pillows. Overall a lovely stay and highly recommended!!

Parking on the premises; I always like such convenience a lot, especially in Switzerland. It is a family run small hotel, so not much fancy shmancy infrastructure there. But the family rooms are big, very well equipped and even have some separation. Also, our family room allowed us direct access to the terrace on the back side of the hotel and the garden, which is super nice and sunny. The breakfast is small but seriously amazing, loved it. What is not so great is the location, all the skiing areas are only reachable by car or public transport and like at least 20 minutes away. What is great though and a little insider tip: The hotel neighbors the Trauffer Hotel and Facilities. Google it, it is quite nice and was a surprise to us.
