Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
'A great hotel. What makes it special is the warmth of the owners, and the quality of the food,' says a visitor to this chalet hotel (Relais du Silence) on a hillside. 'Mr and Mrs Brawand are warm, hearty hosts, who truly want their guests to enjoy themselves; the younger generation are also involved, so there is always a Brawand around. From the best ['Eiger deluxe'] rooms, I don't think I have had better views. The food is the kind you can eat every day. On the daily-changing half-board menu, we enjoyed fried pike-perch; rib lamb cutlets. The breakfast buffet is lavish.' There are four restaurants: La Marmite (newly renovated) serving international dishes, and the Hilty–Stübli and Eiger–Stube for Swiss specialities (fondue, etc), and the Panorama for breakfast and half-board menus. There is also a bar and lounge. In fine weather, meals are taken on the 'wonderful' terrace with 'fantastic' Alpine views. There is a 'luxurious sauna'. 'The hotel is child-friendly, but not at the expense of adults.' Some tour groups, 'which sometimes leave a little noisily early in the morning'.
