"We chose the forest room which overlooked a gorgeous chalet hotel. It was a peaceful atmosphere and we could sleep with our window open at night. The deck restaurant was lovely on our first nigh. I would recommend doing an RSVP as other travelers frequent the deck for dinner. They do seem to prioritize those staying at the hotel but you just make a reservation as first come first serve. Breakfast is lovely with both hard boiled and soft boil eggs, salami&cheese, yogurt, fresh bread ,fruit, coffee/tea/ovaltine/juice.
We were happy we stayed in Wengen where it was quiet and much less touristy.
Let’s talk LAUNDRY. It is CHF10 for 1 wash and 1 dry. ***NOTE; There is only 1 washer and 1 dryer which is a bit of an issue. *** the person on front of us had stuffed 2 baskets in. When our turn came, we set a timer to come back earlier than the dryer was set for. When we returned, someone had removed our items early and they were still damp. I used the hair dryer on several items as we had to pack them away for the trip.
Trains and travel was not a problem. We used the Swiss Travel Pass with 1st Class and it was worth it. The hotel will pick you up at the train stop at the bottom of the hill, which is a huge saving with luggage. NOTE: hotel transport does NOT open until 8:00am. We had to leave at 7:30am to catch our train out and had to wheel luggage back down the hill. Overall, our stay was very nice and Wengen is a beautiful place to stay."
