I love family owned restaurants and hotels as they carry a legacy and this place just ticked all the boxes. Recently renovated with an amazing bathroom, great amenities and clean space to live. Bed was super comfortable. So accessible to the public transport, with options to park if needed. The entire staff was so helpful, always there to guide us. Helped me save money on passes and stuff by giving options. Would stay again when I visit next!

Hotel Gletschergarten is the absolute Swiss experience located at the edge of town beneath the beautiful alps. As it is family owned , four generations, husband and wife are hands on daily with staff so everything works like clockwork. Continental breakfast is enjoyed with a spectacular morning view. Dinners are delicious, convenient, and optional with a single menu every night.

Great views! A very nice family hotel, a few blocks "off the beaten path", but still close to everything. Rooms were a nice size (bathrooms a bit small) with a very nice balcony with photographic views. The service was great with a very friendly and helpful staff! Would I stay here again? Yes!

A beautiful property owned by one family for four generations and lovingly cared for. Attention to detail is apparent everywhere from the high quality meals, the spa, the traditional Swiss decor and the many sitting rooms with comfortable furniture, fireplaces, comfortable beds, washer dryer for guests, a game room, and more. Our room had a wraparound balcony with views of the of the Eiger and snow covered mountains. The hotel is well located near lifts and transportation and a short walk to many restaurants, shops and the sports center. Gary and Gabriela were always available and delightful. We will definitely stay here again.

The owners were very extremely kind and always helpful. The property itself was a bit dated but given the historical nature of the property, it's understandable. The beds were nothing more than a thick foam pad but maybe that's a European standard I'm not familiar with. There was no coffee in the room and if you missed breakfast, you were out of luck as there was no alternative after (or at least when I asked I was told to visit the cafe across the street). The hotel advertised a bar, but no stools are provided to sit and relax so I felt a bit awkward walking in and asking for a drink. They closed at 10PM so a bit early from US standards. You needed your key to lock the room from inside and as someone accustomed to US hotels, that was concerning. I'm accustomed to locking the door with a mechanism and being able to open anytime from inside. We left the key in the door at all times if we needed to exit after locking our room in the event of an emergency. Could you imagine if there was an emergency and we couldn't locate the key?
Overall, it's a dated hotel/bed and breakfast but this wouldn't prevent me from staying again. It's a family owned hotel and a lovely family they are :-)

This is a great property with classic Swiss charm! It was exactly what I was looking for as a place to stay on a recent motorcycle trip around the area. Easy access to everything and I will surely bring my kids back here sometime to either ski or enjoy the summertime activities the area has to offer. 4th generation proprietors Gabriela & Gerhard Michel were gracious hosts!!
