    This property provides exceptional value for price. Sonja and her team are extraordinarily welcoming, from a friendly check-in to warmth every day at breakfast (guests are given designated tables with labeled names, which I haven’t seen at any comparable hotel). It’s not luxury by any means, but that should not be expected at this price point (I found my room tidied every day in the time I was at breakfast, which is smoother housekeeping than I’ve observed at even expensive luxury properties). A special note is that this is one of the few hotels that provides the version of the local guest card that includes the Betelberg and Metsch cable cars, which is worth a lot if you haven’t purchased the Berner Oberland Pass.

    Martin, Sonja, Doris and Gerro were spectacular. They were always looking out for us and excited to see us and help us with anything we needed. We didn’t have plans one day and they helped us sort out a hike and the best way to get there. You also get a free bus pass. Breakfast in the morning was amazing. They have delicious bread, cheese, meats, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, orange juice, coffee and muesli. This bed and breakfast was so homey and pleasant. Best value in Lenk!

    A beautiful stay where I felt like part of the family.

    All was perfect!

    What a quaint, friendly place! Sonja and the rest of the staff made me feel like family during my three day stay from start to finish. My room was on the top floor as I requested (only stairs, no lift) affording a pretty view of the village of Lenk from my balcony. My single room & bath was on the smaller side, but it was perfect for my needs. A comfortable bed, a table, and bathroom were all I desired. There were enough outlets to recharge my devices and the Wifi was fine. An easy walk from the train station. Breakfast was delicious with offerings typical for Switzerland, including homemade jams. I was warmly greeted each morning and throughout my stay all made sure everything was comfortable for me. For those desiring an authentic family run place, I heartily recommend The Hotel Garni Alpenruh. Thanks, all, for a memorable stay!

    Very warm welcome. Room spacious and comfortable. Location central. Breakfast good selection. I liked the complementary cable car pass that came with the room. Good value for money. I had a room with a balcony which was nice.

    Nothing bad to say! It's modest, but everything was completely as described/expected.

    Simple hotel with extremely accommodating staff. The location is perfect - right next to lenk train station, walking distance from betelberg ski field and a short bus ride from the bigger adelboden-lenk ski resort.

    I was taken aback by having the shower and toilet outside of the room, but now understand that that is not uncommon in Switzerland as one moves away from Geneva.

    Breakfast was great - especially loved the customized table decor welcoming me by name.

    Great hotel. I stayed in a large room with south and west facing balcony and a sink. Furniture is solid quality. You think this is Swiss made. It's a smaller village. The hotel is centrally located. On the second floor, one shared toilet and shower for women and men, respectively. I don't think anyone else were on the floor. So, the facilities were available. Friendly people. I got the sense it's family owned and run. A woman gave me a couple of options for the onward hike on Via Alpina. Also recommended a local bakery. Which had good coffee. Breakfast was buffet style with great options. Thanks!
