Top Kandersteg Hotel Reviews
Hotel-Restaurant Seegarten-Marina
"Clean room, amazing views, and very friendly staff!"
Grand Hotel Beau Rivage Interlaken
"The only negative was that they have no A/C in the rooms or anywhere else in the hotel."
Hotel Weisses Kreuz
"Location was perfect - close to shops and grocery stores (to help cut the cost of very expensive dining out in Switzerland). Short walk to Interlaken West train station. Easy bus access. Breakfast was included and was VERY good - lots of variety and delicious! Beds/pillows were very comfortable. The hotel is older, and room was pretty basic - no bedside lamps (NOT a game changer), and no A/C, which we discovered is common in Switzerland. Temperatures were warm (high twenty's) during our stay, but we were given 2 floor fans which really helped to keep things comfortable. Would definitely stay again and would highly recommend."

"Great stay in Interlaken!"

"Good location next to train station. Has breakfast which was good"
Eiger Lodge Chic
"Excellent breakfast and location to Grindelwald terminal"
Hotel Berghof Amaranth
"The view from my room was stunningly beautiful. The hotel staff were helpful and kind. Yes, it is a bit of a walk from the train station, but that means that it is in a quiet, scenic location. To sit in the garden with the gentle sound of cow bells, gazing at the valley and the Alps, was pure bliss."
Sunstar Hotel Grindelwald
"everything is great, view, people and room"
