Such a cute little property. We stayed for one night as a travelling group of three females. We stayed in a room made up for three and it was so cosy and well presented. Staff were really friendly and super happy to have us there. Would recommend particularly for the cable car to Oeschien which is literally across the road! Excellent, thankyou!

Excellent hotel. Great staff, nice breakfast. Nice room. A bit of a walk from town but a scenic walk it is. Close to lift up the mountain to a lake and hiking.

Nice cosy hotel

Nice hotel. Just beside the cable car station. While the walk to the hotel from train station was long, it brings you across a very nice field full of small flowers. So it was enjoyable. The only not so good thing was that the hotel was under renovation and have no lift to upper level.

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!

Located just right next to the mountain lift to Oeschinen-lake. Wonderful area for hiking. Very friendly staff, good restaurant. Breakfast was very good and rich, however, not so many warm food.Very nice room. It was a bit surprising that the wellness is not included in the room price, but in any case it was at reasonable price and the hot pot is fantastic. The room price was also reasonable, so overall I can only recommend this hotel.
