Pros:

la Situation excellente par rapport à la gare, les magasin et les restaurants.

Cons:

Un petit bémol toutefois... on était "envahi" par les mouches au moment du petit déjeuner
C'est un tantinet désagréable.

Terribly bad
Pros:

Very bad

Cons:

All guests who wish to make a reservation for this hotel should be aware of the following: If you are unable to arrive and check in on time due to force majeure factors, the hotel will not refund any money at all. Even if you send a message to the hotel in advance to negotiate, the hotel will reply to you very late or not at all! We completed the check-in process without actually staying there, but we have to bear all the losses! This is absolutely unreasonable.

Cozy, relaxing, and beautiful.
Pros:

One of the biggest reasons we chose this hotel was the fact it was next to Lake Brienz with such stunning views from our balcony. The room was simply designed and minimalistic which is our style, but very clean, and another big feat is their cafe. The number of cakes my friends ate as early as breakfast time (which is unheard of judging by the staff's expressions) the food was great as well. Overall, it was a great experience.

Cons:

Due to the wonderful location, we were willing to sacrifice by dealing with no elevators and lugging our suitcases up a small hill to stay here. Hotel Walz staff, however, were so accommodating in bringing each of our suitcases up two flights of stairs. And we had around 7-8 luggages. So grateful for that.

Alles in allem waren wir mit unserem Aufenthalt zufrieden mit den erwähnten Einschränkungen.
Pros:

Das Hotel ist zu Fuss gut erreichbar vom Bahnhof. Das Zimmer wurde offenbar vor kurzem renoviert. Die Betten sind bequem. Das Leselicht super. Es hat einen kleinen Balkon mit Seitensicht zum See und zwei Fenster zur Hauptstrasse. Diese ist nicht sehr befahren und verursacht keim Lärm. Das Restaurant und die Terrasse haben einen unverbauten Seeblick.

Cons:

Die Ablageflächen im Zimmer sind sehr sparsam. Wer mehrere Tage bleiben und seine Kleider auspacken will, wird Mühe haben. Die Kleiderbügel sollten ergänzt werden mit Modellen für Hosen. Komfortabel wäre eine Lademöglichkeit für das Händy beim Bett. Das Frühstück ist im Preis nicht inbegriffen. Es kann erst am 8.30 bestellt werden. Das ist zu spät für Gäste wie wir, die einen längeren Tagesausflug planen. Die Menükarte ist bescheiden. Bis 20 Uhr werden Bestellungen aufgenommen. Um 21 Uhr schliesst das Restaurant.
Den Übernachtungspreis finden wir im Vergleich mit andern Hotels eher hoch.
