Excellent view of the Eiger mountain! It could be steep to get to the hotel but it’s worth the effort if you want to see a breathtaking view of the Eiger, with the option of a room with the view.

Wonderful Stay with Excellent Service! We had a fantastic experience at Hotel Alpenhof. The staff were warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful. Our room was spacious, clean, and offered a breathtaking view—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The breakfast was delicious with a good variety, and the on-site restaurant exceeded our expectations. One thing to note: the hotel is located on a hill, which adds to the beautiful views but can make walking with luggage a bit challenging. If you're arriving by train, we highly recommend using a taxi/shuttle service for convenience. Overall, a comfortable and memorable stay. We would definitely return and highly recommend it to others!

This is very traditional Swiss hotel with amazing views. It is close to everything but a little bit of hike up from the main road. There is free parking available. Our room was large and comfortable but the bathroom was small. The furniture looks worn. The breakfast was good and the staff are very friendly and helpful. All in all a very good stay in Grindelwald.

They charge 5 francs per hour for using the onsite washer and dryer. The dryer is a complete scam and it doesn’t dry clothes at all. We had a small load of clothes to dry and after 2 hours of drying, it was still soaking wet, staying exactly how it came out of the washer. So by the time you realize that the dryer doesn’t work at all, you will be out of pocket at least 20 francs, and of course, left wondering how to return home with the load of wet clothes in your luggage.
