    Cleanest most comfortable hostel I have been to and in a early 1900s wooden chalet with sweeping views of the Eiger to boot. Great value for money in expensive Grindelwald!

    Gorgeous views over the mountains, a little out the way of the busy village but can just get the 122 bus to it. Lovely simple breakfast. I never had the dinners but looked good for the price!
