Had a week’s half board at this hotel as part of an Inghams ski package. Good value for what we had and location. Hotel is full of character and one of oldest if not the oldest in Wengen. Family owned and evidence of that throughout the hotel. Hotel in places hasn’t changed for some years so don’t expect modern. Great bar with lovely views. Limited seating. The barman Marco has been there many years, is very friendly and a real asset to the hotel. There are other areas throughout hotel to sit in so when bar is full the lobby area could be busy too. On our first night there was an amazing pianist and singer. No tvs in rooms but there was one room downstairs with a Tv. Bedrooms were fine but nothing special. Could do with a couple of extra hooks for towels, jackets etc. Floors tend to creak. There is a lift to all floors. Plenty of hot water. We had lovely views over the village. Food was taken in the dining room with table cloths and weighty cutlery. Breakfast was ok but staff struggled to restock so despite relatively few guests we often had to wait for plates, bowls, fruit etc to be topped up. Can recommend the chefs muesli. Otherwise, bread, cheese, cold meats, fruit, yogurt and a pancake machine. Would benefit from hand sanitiser in this area. Evening meal was average. Four courses a fish, meat and vegetarian main course. First night was a buffet. Vegetarian choice was ok but very cheese based and not a lot of vegetables. I think hôtel would struggle with a vegan diet. Location is slightly up the hill away from the village but with great views over the village. Can be seen on the Wengen webcam. When snow is good you can ski to from the hotel if coming from Kleine Scheidegg. However, snow on that run was getting very slushy and if coming from Murren you would need to walk up hill in ski boots with skis so a few times we left our skis and boots at Central Sport. This is 4chf per person and was worth it for us.
