    Stunning views, quiet location, no regrets

    The pillows were not ideal and there weren't other options in the room to mix and match what suited us, but that was pretty minor.

    We had a balcony room and we have absolutely no regrets - the view was absolutely stunning, and we enjoyed just sitting on the balcony soaking in the views, with the soundtrack of cow bells ringing. The room was a decent size, the bathroom clean and shower good pressure, there were even some extra seats and a desk to spread out, and plenty of room for our suitcases. The staff were fantastic, and the food in the attached restaurant also delicious. This was our favourite stay for our whole holiday, it really left an impression on us.

    Lovely property, comfortable bed, exceptionally clean. An on-site restaurant is a plus with great food . The staff is both helpful and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again when I return.

    Perfect hotel to stay in this beautiful town

    It would be great if there was a guest laundry. We were on a month long holiday and regularly needed washing facilities. The 2 washing machines and driers at the public laundromat do not meet the demand of all the tourists in the town so we were having to spend time there late at night or early morning before we started our day and had to hang wet laundry around our room.

    We were a family of 3 adults staying in the family room. The room was very clean and comfortable and quiet at night. We were able to sleep with the windows open to let in cool air after the warm summer days. Location is close to the Coop, Main Street of Wengen and train and gondola stations albeit the hill is hard work. Luckily they will transport your luggage up the hill when it comes time to leave. We loved the breakfast in the restaurant and whilst we didn’t eat dinner there we did pop in for a drink late one evening. The front desk and restaurant staff were all very friendly and helpful.

    Our family of 4 stayed 3 nights at the chalet that had a great mountain view as shown in the website. The chalet was spacious with 2 bedrooms (1 with double bed and the other with 2 single beds). Both rooms had a desk. There is one bathroom with a shower (no bath) and a separate toilet. There is also a separate sink to wash your cups and water bottles etc. There is a small fridge with enough space to store fresh fruits, coffee machine and very nice tea bags including herbal teas provided. Although there is no fan there are many windows and the cooler evening mountain air meant the trmperature was quite comfortable at night on one of the 30 degree days that we were there. We did half board with buffet style breakfast and 3 course dinner provided. Both were excellent. Recommend you take up this offer if you have the chance. Its great value and you won't be disappointed. For breakfast there is a variety of homemade breads, jams, butter, cereals and yoghurts. There is bacon, scrambled eggs, sausage, and variety of hams. There is also different kinds of juices. There is also a water bath machine that allows you to boil eggs to your liking e.g. half boiled, soft or hard boiled. The food was plentiful and delicious. Recommend you try the different breads. I especially liked the 'nut bread'. For dinner there is good variety of starters and mains to choose from with generous portions so you are not left still hungry afterwards. All the dishes we had were very yummy that contained very fresh ingredients. The desserts were also great and also good selection of drinks. Also, the chef was able to make delicious dishes that cater to my dietary requirements without garlic and onions. So recommend that if you have dietary requirements that you inform the pleasant staff well in advance - the chef may be able to cook yummy dishes to your needs.

    When I asked for a sheet to sleep under….comforters are hot, they wouldn’t give me one, instead gave me a blanket/throw but it was hot too. They should offer the sheet for those of us who are hot, there is no air conditioning so a sheet is a must.

    We had a room with a view of the mountains, plus we had a huge balcony w/table & chairs, it ran the length of the room, which included a sitting area, a toilet room, & a large bathroom w/free standing tub with view of the mountains. Staff were awesome. They made sure I had a fan for the warm nights, the coffee maker was unique & the restaurant on the property was delicious. Dinner was good but expensive but the included breakfast was delicious! All the things you could need like blow dryer, shower gel, etc.

    Everything! Everything about this hotel is exceptional. The room was wonderful with great amenities, the location stunning and the food amazing. But it is the brilliant staff that made our stay truly memorable. They are all so friendly, helpful, attentive and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. One night the dessert special had run out and my husband was really looking forward to trying it. The next night the chef had made one especially and let us know they were keeping it for him to have after dinner. Not only that, my husband said it was the best dessert he had ever eaten! The hotel is down a steep hill, so on leaving your luggage will be driven up to the station, which was greatly appreciated too.

    The property is down a short hill which can be tough after long hiking days, but that's hard to avoid in the mountains! It didn't deter us at all.

    The staff, views, and restaurant cannot be topped. We had the absolute best time! We rented the family cabin, and it's right next to an adorable play area. Melissa was so kind to our 2 and 4 year olds. We had the best time! I already want to go back!

    Biggest negative was bed was so short and coverings were weird. Coverings didn’t seem clean but assume they were but just felt used.

    Staff were outstanding. Missed breakfast a couple of days and made us lunch instead which was great. Breakfast the day we went was ok.

    We had an incredible experience at this hotel! The balcony room with a view is well worth the little extra and the included breakfast was incredible! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Wengen is simply the best village in the area in my opinion and I'm so glad we stayed there. It was a little unusually warm in Switzerland while we there but we were able to crack the balcony door while keeping it closed and locked and they provided a fan for air flow so it was quite comfortable at night. We had dinner at the restaurant one evening and it was great too! Thank you Hotel Baren!
