The breakfast and the view was amazing. Our main excursion was Oechinensee, so this was perfect as the hotel is literally at the entrance to the cable car. The room was beautiful, clean, modern, and comfortable. Staying in Kandersteg really gave us the mountain village experience, I would stay here again. Just some tips for first timers. Everything in the village closes at around 6:30p so plan accordingly for meals/snacks. No ac, no mini fridge, and no microwave which is pretty standard for Europe, but also keep this in mind for snacks, late meals if traveling with young kids.

Overall our stay was great! Our room was spacious and had great views. Breakfast was delicious with hot and cold options. Staff was friendly and hotel was right next to the gondola to go up the mountain. Beautiful walkable town. And thankful that parking was free for hotel guests. We also had dinner there at the hotel restaurant on our first night. It was pretty good. A little pricy, but comparable in price to other restaurants in town.

Our family absolutely loved our stay at the Ermitage Hotel in Kandersteg! The location couldn’t be better, it’s just a short walk from the train station and the charming downtown area with shops and restaurants. Best of all, it’s right next to the cable car that takes you up to Oeschinen Lake, one of the most breathtaking places we’ve ever visited. We also had a blast riding the mountain toboggan, which was a huge hit with the whole family!

The hotel staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The on-site restaurant was delicious, making it easy to enjoy a great meal after a day of exploring the mountains. Breakfast is included every morning and it was delicious! Every member of the team made us feel right at home.

The scenery is simply stunning, and the convenience of the location made our trip even more enjoyable. We made unforgettable memories here and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend the Ermitage Hotel to anyone visiting Kandersteg!

We loved our stay here. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We arrived quite early and they allowed us to check-in and even gave us a complimentary room upgrade. Located in a very quiet area - steps away from the Oeschinensee trail and cable car. The cable car was not open during our stay, as it was off-season. There was a delicious complimentary breakfast included which was great. Lots of options! The only complaint would be that the rooms are not soundproof. We were able to hear our neighbors often. But it was not disruptive to us at all. Would definitely stay here again.

There was some sort of daily service but the room wasn't vacuumed and towels not changed for the entiredurationof our stay. It seemd the room attendant would just empty bins and tidy up the room.
Water bottle was replenished only on the second day, however there always was a jug with water in the corridor so it wasn't a problem for us.

Hotel is located in a very convenient place, right by the gondola for Oeschinensee Lake & the hotel allows you to park for free on the day of arrival or departure so you don't also need to pay for parking for the Gondola. The view is amazing from the grounds of the hotel overlooking the mountain.

Check-in was quick, but they didn't ask if we had a car & it was only when I enquired that I realised we should have been given something to put in our car, otherwise we could have been given a ticket.

There's extra charges for using the hot tub or sauna featured on the photos.

The breakfast buffet was enjoyable and included in our room price, there was choices for all family members.

On arrival, we were told we had booked a \"budget room\" whereas we had thought we had booked a comfort room. The room was in the basement with no view of the mountain & there was scaffolding right outside our room which wasn't particularly safe for small children.

When we arrived, we realised the TV was damaged, we informed the management & they seemed annoyed but did not offer any compensation etc. the radiator was leaking in the hallway & the floor was raising up near the bathroom/toilet. It was however spacious inside and would have slept 6 people and a baby if required with a double bed and two sets of bunk beds. It was also clean.

When staying at the accommodation they offer a guest card which gives you discount to the gondola and public transport, but we had already bought our gondola tickets

No Clear Instructions for Check In

Hello,

I respectfully disagree with your decision. I purchased insurance specifically to protect my stay, and I would like to understand how I can use it to obtain a refund, as I paid extra for this coverage.

Additionally, no one from the property reached out to me, despite having both my phone number and email address. Someone from the front desk or management should have contacted me before leaving for the day to provide the after-hours check-in process.

Please let me know the steps to file a claim through the insurance I purchased. I genuinely need your assistance, as this is the second or third time I’ve faced issues without any proper resolution or compensation.

If this cannot be resolved, I will have no choice but to escalate this to higher management, share my experience in a public review, and reconsider using Hotels.com for future bookings.



Thank you,

Got a room next to the one being renovated.

The hotel was under renovation. They gave us a room right next to the site. They drilled walls in the morning while we were still there. We couldn’t use balcony due to all the stuff for construction. No facility - no fridge, no kettle, no curtain! I complained but no change whatsoever. Staff were all pretty nice but the decision to rent the room while still construction doesn’t make any sense.

DO NOT STAY HERE

We checked in lae night. Front desk service person did not informed us that wifi was not working. We asked lady to give us another wifi pwd she denied the request. For 2 nights wifif did not work at all. Everytime they keep saying it will work tomorrow and they are fixing. After 2 nights we decided to checkout and stay somewhere else for 1 night and property managet agreed to refund us that 1 night and some compensation for inconvience caused by no wifi service, contruction noise in hotel, safety issues in playground. My kid was about to fall down from broken steps of playground. Now, hotels.com telling us that hotel is not agreeing to give us any refund and compensation at all and offereing $20 one key cash which feels like insulting. We paid $1074 for 3 nights. Hotel is in construction and they are not making any effort to make your stay comfortable so stay away from this hotel.

Nice hotel. Just beside the cable car station. While the walk to the hotel from train station was long, it brings you across a very nice field full of small flowers. So it was enjoyable. The only not so good thing was that the hotel was under renovation and have no lift to upper level.

It was very nice experience for us . The hotel was next to the cable car station with amazing view
It was hidden gems
Before going Switzerland we did home work where to go but there was a little mention of
Oeschinen Lake where you can do hiking sight seeing Barbecue swimming many activities etc in Summer . It was arranged so convenient for
Elderly and pregnant
Woke up with snowcapped mountains and waterfalls in front of your eyes was amazing
Staffs are very friendly
Rooms were modern and very clean with Alpine features
Parking is free
But no lifts to top floor but they will take the luggage for you
About 1 hour north to Jungfrau and Interlaken and south to Matterhorn
Initially we felt quite remote but we fell in love after staying there
We requested early breakfast before scheduled time due to our trip and they let us in . That was very kind
We highly recommend

We wish we could have spent more than one night because it was situated in a beautiful area with lots to explore. The staff was very friendly, the breakfast was good, the room very nicely appointed and comfortable.

We loved this hotel. The front desk staff were so kind and helpful - they guided us to great hikes and wonderful massages. We are on our honeymoon and they decorated the room special for us as a surprise - rose petals and champagne - so kind and thoughtful! The hotel is at a convenient location across the street from the gondola lift to Oeschinensee, so it can get a little busy during the day - great for people watching. Overall a very quiet and cozy location; we had a great view of the mountain and waterfalls from our balcony. Also, the hotel had the cutest alpine rabbits that reside on the property!

Alt var rigtig fint men der manglede klima i soveværelset. Jeg havde tag værelset og der var varmt kunne ikke sove, sov meget dårligt det var for varmt. Tagvinduerne var åbent men stod desværre op til regnvejr så et stort nul fordi der ikke var klimaanlæg på værelset.

Das Badezimmer war geräumig und makellos sauber. Der Mitarbeiter war außergewöhnlich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Obwohl er viele Aufgaben alleine bewältigen musste, blieb er stets herzlich und bemühte sich um schnelle Unterstützung. Zudem war das Frühstück extrem lecker, was den gesamten Aufenthalt zu einer wahren Freude machte. Ich kann es nur wärmstens empfehlen!

After a horrible experience in Interlaken. This hotel was a safe, healthy, clean place that was so worth it. Matina and Joshua were so kind! They say Americans are the people who respect them. We must always be that way as other countries do not hold our values. So book this place!
