You're in Lauterbrunnen for the scenic views and the hiking, and if you're doing it right - you shouldn't be hanging around in your room too much! That being said, this hotel is extremely outdated. I was a little taken aback at how old the carpet, bathroom fittings and furnishings are. I paid $350 CHF (close to $700 AUD) for one night, and to be honest, I expected more. This is bare bones, no-frills accommodation. The room was musty, so I left the balcony doors open all night (and I'm not usually sensitive to smells). The bathroom is insanely tiny, you can't open the door more than halfway before it hits the toilet. The shower was straight-up 1970s. There is no lift (understandable, this is an old property in a little Swiss mountain town!), but after long travel days - pulling my 30kg suitcase up 4 flights of stairs was a complete struggle. All in all, I had a good stay, I slept well, and I appreciated the location and beautiful view - but I would pick a different property for next time unless they commit to a serious renovation.
