Pros:

This hotel is perfectly located, just a short walk from the train station and the Coop supermarket.

The room I stayed in was cozy and clean, with a breathtaking view.

The food was excellent as well. What a lovely hotel!

Excellent base for touring the surrounding area
Pros:

Location is great: this hotel is about as close to the main Grindewald train station as you can be - less than 5 minutes walk. The bus station is also just across the road, but we did not experience any noise issues. In addition, the Coop supermarket is a few minutes walk away, so you can easily stock up on supplies.

You can enter the hotel through the integrated restaurant, and take the lift to the first floor where reception is located. Very friendly and helpful staff who gave good suggestions for our Jungfrau trip.

Room was good, with a safe, fridge, TV, portable fan (needed during the heat wave), comfortable beds, balcony, toiletries. You can borrow a kettle from reception and they also provided adaptor plugs to charge our phones. We had mountain views from our balcony.

Breakfast is from 730am to 1000am. It can be busy early on as people are looking to get away early for the big mountain trips, but we always found a table and staff were constantly refilling the breakfast items. Which included juices, hot drinks, fruit, cereals, scrambled eggs, yogurts, breads, croissants. It was ample for our (vegetarian) needs.

We ate dinner in the hotel restaurant once, and that was fine. Switzerland can be expensive so many budget conscious travellers use the local supermarket for meals. We found a very good cafe near the Coop which was very good value for money.

Grindewald (and Hotel Central Wolter) provides an excellent base for touring the surrounding area. Our favourites were Jungfrau, Grindewald First and Schilthorn. If you are looking to escape hot weather, some of the mountain summits provide relief, the nearby Gletscherschluct Gorge is cool, and further out you could do Tummelbach Falls.

Great location
Pros:

We booked an appartment and the size was great! The balcony was a major selling point and we used daily. Loved being super close to train station and Coop and on the main street in Grindelwald. Included breakfast had options for everyone would definitely recommend!!

立地がよく、また利用したい
Pros:

・抜群の立地： 駅からすぐ近くで、近くにコープ（スーパー）もあるので買い物にも困りません。チェックイン前やチェックアウト後も快く荷物を預かってくれたので、身軽に観光を楽しめました。
・朝食と景色： 朝食はとても美味しく、種類も豊富でたくさんいただきました。何より朝食会場からの景色が素晴らしく、澄んだ朝の空気を吸いながら過ごす時間は最高に気持ちよかったです。
・親切なスタッフ： フロントのおじさんがとても親切に対応してくださり、心が温まりました。

Cons:

・部屋に冷房がないため扇風機で過ごしましたが、時期によっては少し暑さを感じるかもしれません。
・ 部屋の冷蔵庫に入っている瓶のお水は有料です。無料のサービスだと思って知らずに飲んでしまい、後から高い代金を支払うことになってしまったので、これから泊まる方は気をつけてください（すぐ近くのコープで買っておくのがおすすめです）。

The loveliest and kindest staff
Pros:

Very spacious apartments, with balcony, space to cook and parking which we needed. The hotel staff Jorge was possibly the best part of our stay, just so knowledgeable and helpful going the extra data mike with tips and supportive. Truly elevated the experience.

Cons:

The fact we had a twin bed wasn’t the best for two and also the bed didn’t have a headboard
