2 Star Hotels in Grindelwald

Eiger Lodge Chic - Grindelwald: I didn’t realize that the Eiger Lodge was located in Grindelwald Grund – Terminal, not in the heart of Grindelwald. Having noted that, I must say that our 7 nights at the lodge with a room and balcony facing Mt Eiger and sumptuous breakfast, I was happy for my mistake. The lodge is near the Terminal from where we purchased tickets and left via cable car for the Top of Europe – Jungfrau, and took the Mannlichen - Wengen cable cars, as well as the main Grindelwald Terminal train station. There is also a ‘shuttle train’ which runs between Grindelwald Grund and the main Grindelwald town. It’s also a few steps away from the lodge (on the other side). The owner and staff are very personable and very helpful. The lodge is an interesting mix of hostel and hotel. We were in the newly opened ‘Chic’ section. Waking up to those incredible views from our balcony was priceless. Their laundry facility is somewhat limited for the number of guests. Line-up is via the honor system – first come / first can use it. The Eiger Lodge also runs a nearby campsite (5 minute walk). Breakfast can be enjoyed inside or outside. The lodge has an outdoor restaurant (open evenings) with covered and uncovered seating. We ate there several times – good food / limited menu / cold beer. The lodge provides all guests with a free bus pass. We used ours to get to the town of Grindelwald, so we could take the cable car to Grindelwald First, where we also hiked to Bachalspsee and met the contented Swiss cows. Highly recommended.

Great location, at the foot of the Eiger, lovely views from our room. Set on the main road, it was kind of equidistant from the main cable car sites on each side of the town. Nice, small bar area. There is a small parking area that we were able to use, pretty much next to the hotel, which was really handy. Our rooms were basic, but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good, set us up for the day. Couple who run it are very friendly and helpful. It seems better than the 2 stars it has. I would recommend it.

It's about a 10-minute walk from Grindelwald Station, and the bus dispatch interval is long, so you have to calculate your time before moving. It was nice to be able to cook, but it wasn't very pleasant because of the smell of burnt oil in the room that doesn't go away even with ventilation. I think 1 towel per person for 2 nights was a bit too much. However, the view of the Eiger North Wall from the balcony was very beautiful enough to accommodate all these easy points.

This is probably one of the 3 best hotels we have stayed in our recent Europe trip, the 2nd hotel we have stayed in Switzerland. We stayed here for 2 nights. To begin with, there are 2 hotels under this group and they are located on the opposite of the road, one is Jungfrau Hotel and the other Jungfrau Lodge. The former, I believe is the main but older with vintage designed, kind of cottages whereas the one we were staying were more modern, like an apartment building. However, the main reception is at the former (including the restaurant where breakfast is served). On our side, no facilities and entering is by access card and there's a lift (but the other one had no lift). Our room (314) is compact but cosy with a balcony. It's clean too. Outside the balcony, we were exposed to mother's nature! The top snow mountains, greenery with cottage houses and villages were right in front of us! It's amazing and scenic! There are chairs and table here and imagine you can enjoy your wine with snacks while enjoying the beautiful scenery! The beds were comfortable and there's a bathtub in the toilet. The only thing was that the water was not hot enough. There's no aircon or kettle, but you can get the hot water from the reception, located at the main hotel opposite the road. The breakfast was decent and quite good and besides those food items on display, you can also order additional items like special latte or cappuccino, scrambled eggs with sausages etc. They were yummy and staff was friendly and polite. The room service was well done and things used were replenished and arranged neatly. It's a wonderful and great stay here and trust me, with the scenery, it's all worth it!

The rooms are good and upgraded. I booked a beautiful room and was put on the 2nd floor with an unobstructed view but the view was good not the best. I found this hotel cleaner than the others we stayed in in Switzerland. The front desk wasn't very helpful I found rude people, also we waited about 20 minutes at the bar before I had to get up and get someone's attention. Well located in front of the train. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

We stayed in the gallery apt 10 which was the perfect size for our family. The hotel is located close to the train station and in the heart of everything. The apartments are actually in the building behind the hotel but we thought that worked out better than being on the main street. The staff was always nice. The breakfast was the same everyday but that was okay with us because we just wanted to eat quickly to get to our adventures! Now here are the pros and cons in our opinion! Pros: -ABSOLUTELY AMAZING VIEW FROM THIS APARTMENT 10! We sat outside on our balcony every evening and just marveled at the beauty of the mountains. -Love the balcony -Having the small kitchen was very nice especially to go to COOP and get some food, drinks, snacks - Breakfast included - Bathroom was nice - Apartment was clean Cons: - There is no air conditioning so if it's warm then you must keep the windows open. Unfortunately, you do hear noise from the hotel restaurants nearby. However, everything seems to quiet down by 10:30. - Our son ended up sleeping in the bed upstairs because my husband and I were very concerned about going up/down the stairs inside the apartment. They were unusually shaped. I would definitely recommend staying here especially in the apartments.

We enjoyed our stay with Bernerhof Hotel very much. Location is very convenient, only 5 mins walk from train station. And another 5 mins to Coop supermarket, which is good for all kind of vital purchases. Having the view of Eiger at the front of the hotel is definitely a huge bonus for anyone who wants great photo opportunity. Of course, that also must depends on the weather. There are lots of shops and restaurants nearby, and all are within walking distance from the hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful, attend to our request promptly. The breakfast though not lavish but it served our needs, and my wife loves the croissant there. Overall we are happy with our experience.

Hotel Alpenhof is a classic Swiss mountain hotel - lots of pine paneling and flower boxes on the windows. It has a small restaurant that serves Swiss specialties at dinner and a nice breakfast buffet. But, best of all, it has killer views of the north face of the Eiger and surrounding mountains. I was disappointed when we checked in late and found we were reassigned from the room with a flower bedecked balcony I had booked to a suite with a patio but I quickly got over it. The suite had a bedroom, living room with a couch, coffee table and desk, and a bathroom with a tub/shower combination. It was great to have an extra room to spread out all our hiking gear and the patio, with a table, chairs and umbrella overlooking the Eiger, was a great place to hang out after long hikes in the mountains. The staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant stayed open late after that late arrival and even allowed us to take pizzas back to our patio one night after an especially arduous hike. There certainly are fancier hotels in Grindelwald, but the Alpenhof is a clean, friendly and comfortable option we sincerely recommend.

Get off at the Grinderwald train station, then take bus 121 or 122, and then push the luggage up a slope. The B&B is halfway up the slope. We were too tired, so we got off the bus and called the boss to pick us up. The shuttle fee was 10 francs for a short 2-minute round trip. I was so sad~~~ There are really beautiful views everywhere, the B&B environment and breakfast are good There are many Asians staying here.
