Equipements vieillots mais OK. Chambre petite.

Pros:

Lovely hotel, very clean, warm and cosy. Nice breakfast, perfect location. Bus 105 from the station takes you to Interlaken, lots of good restaurants. Walk 15 minutes up through wildervswil village to barren, 42 chf for 3 course meal. We travel to many countries throughout the year and would definitely stay here again

Pros:

Ligging in Wilderswil en ziet er sfeervol uit.
Ontbijt voldoende keus, niet uitgebreid.
Kamers en sanitair zijn schoon. Prima voor en nacht ( op doorreis naar Grindelwald)

Cons:

In vergelijking met 4 jaar geleden beetje vergane glorie. Nu onpersoonlijk met een sleutelkastje.
Verder alleen personeel bij het ontbijt.
Kamers zijn echt vergane glorie geworden, beddengoed is oud en stuk ( maar gelukkig schoon)
Te duur voor wat je er voor terugkrijgt.

Joli hôtel très bien situé mais accueil impersonnel.
Pros:

L'emplacement est fabuleux, près de l'église et d'un pont historique en bois et très proche de la gare. Ma chambre avait une belle terrasse.

Cons:

L'ensemble est un peu viellot et mériterait une rénovation légère, surtout la salle de bain. L'accueil sans personnel à la réception est toujours un peu stressant. Une fois en possession de la clef, j'étais encore stressée car je n'ai jamais réussi à ouvrir la porte principale avec ma clef. Le soir j'étais donc obligée de rentrer avant 22h pour être sûre que quelqu'un réponde à l'interphone et ouvre la porte.

You get what you pay for.
Pros:

We got an upgrade to a room with a view of the river. Location was good. Breakfast was OK, with no varity, just the basics.

Cons:

Shower was horrible. The showerhead didnt work. Pillows were hard and too big. The only staff member we encountered was the man at breakfast. He was friendly, but spoke no English, just Ukranian and a little German. He tried his best to help us, but it was hard to communicate.

PERFECT STAY IN A PICTURESQUE LOCATION
Pros:

Check-in was very easy. The parking was in front of the hotel and cost 5 CHF per night. The breakfast was very good and the room itself was cosy and silent. There was a kettle and tea in the room. Speedy internet.

Wir machten Wanderurlaub, das Wetter war toll und wir mussten nicht viel Zeit im Hotel verbringen.
Pros:

Die ruhige Lage am Dorfrand neben der alten Kirche. Die alte Brücke und der Bach - ein malerisches Ambiente, das zum Sitzen auf der Dorf-Terasse einlädt. Das Frühstück war bescheiden aber in Ordnung.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist nicht zeitgemäß - ungepflegter Gesamteindruck. Das Personal war wortkarg. Die Gartenmöbel waren dreckig und teilweise kaputt. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt gar nicht: Die Unterkunft ist zu teuer.
