Nicht zum Empfehlen
Cons:

Wir waren in unseren 35 Jahren Reisen noch nie in so einen miserablen Hotel gewesen.Die Rationierung mit dem Morgenessen,kein Parkplatz ,aber das schlimmste ist das man uns sagt wir können dort schnell Parkieren um die Koffer auszuladen.Als wir wieder nach unten kamen, wurden wir vom Besitzer des Hotel übel beschimpft,weil ein Auto das zum Restaurant gehört nicht raus konnte.Das Restaurants gehört nicht zusammen mit dem Hotel.

Das Hotel können wir empfehlen, wenn man nicht grosse Erwartungen an das Frühsrück hat.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war grosszügig und sauber. Es erfüllte den Zweck. Die Aussicht vom Zimmer war ein grosses Plus. Herr Flurinhatvubs sehr nett emofangebln.

Cons:

Das Restaurant ist separat geführt. Die Pächter sind nicht besonders zuvorkommend. Das Frühstück war lieblos, das Brot von geringer Qualität.

Pros:

Absolute Katastrophe...wir sind glwich wieder gegangen nachdem wir das Zimmer bezogen haben. Die Ausstattung stimmte nicht überrein mit dem Beschreib, es war zwar sauber aber heruntergekommen, dass man solche Angebote überhaupt noch ausschreiben darf ist mir ein Rätsel. Wir sind nich heikel aber dieses Hotel hat nichts ausser die Aussicht auf den Brienzersee und Bergen was es bieten kann.

One of the most disappointing hotel experiences I have had, with poor service, inadequate facilities, and a property tha
Pros:

Location, other than that. Nothing good to say

Cons:

My stay was extremely disappointing and did not meet expectations in several important areas.

The first issue was the parking charge. Guests are required to pay 10 CHF for parking, which was an unexpected additional expense.

Upon entering the property, I was immediately met with a strong damp and mouldy smell throughout the building. The odour was so unpleasant that I genuinely felt unwell after staying there.

The room itself was exceptionally small, with very limited space to move around comfortably. Basic amenities that most guests would reasonably expect were also missing, including a television, soap, and a hairdryer.

There were damp, stained patches on the ceilings of both my bedroom and bathroom. No wonder it smelled damp and mouldy. I had a shower this morning and 8 hours later I can still smell that smell. My suitcase and clothes stink of it now..

The service was another major let-down. While one younger member of staff was friendly and helpful, the rest of the team provided a poor customer experience.

One particularly frustrating incident occurred while guests were eating and drinking outside. When it started raining, a member of staff closed the canopy without asking anyone if they were comfortable with this decision. As a result, guests and their meals were exposed to the rain. At the same time, the outdoor umbrellas were removed, leaving people with no shelter.

Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the outdoor lakeside area that is prominently featured in the property’s photographs. The images create the impression of a beautiful and relaxing waterfront setting. In reality, the area looked neglected, unsafe, and nothing like what was advertised. The difference between the promotional photos and the actual condition of the property was significant and, in my opinion, highly misleading.

Overall, this was one of the most disappointing accommodation experiences I have had.
