This is a nice, old-fashioned, family-run hotel close by the lake shore, and about ten minutes walk from the rail stations and boat pier.

Staff were nice and friendly and the hotel is clean, and quite basic - there was a good breakfast. A good option for anyone who wants a simple stay.

My wife and I like to stay in small towns. We do not like fancy hotels and big cities. We like to have a place we can anchor from and then enjoy the journey. Hotel Brienz was perfect. First the area is amazing. The staff is great. Family owned and operated. You are 1 hour from Luzern, and Bern. 40 minutes to Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. 20 from Interlaken. 2 3/4 hour train ride to Zermatt. Hotel offers a very nice and complete breakfast. Rooms are very clean. The bed was a little hard but the staff went out of their way to bring me other items such a pillows, blankets to make it more comfortable. They genuinely cared. It is not a new property, but it is very well kept. Keeps the charm of the area. Wry quiet and the views are stunning. Great hotel. Great staff, great access to the wonders of Switzerland.

Location wise, this could not be better. Staff were very helpful, breakfast was nice. The restaurant in the evening has a good selection of Swiss traditional dishes - otherwise you can cross the road and go to Loewen (which belongs to the hotel as well). Note that for late night check-in you need to call them so they can leave your room key in a safe box at the main entrance (dead easy).

Check in was great (Sophia is very sweet), property is nice and food at the restaurant was really good. It is at the end of town so a lot of walking to get to the hotel and back to the main part of town. Also next to a church so if you don’t mind hearing the bell every 15 minutes (or you don’t like sleeping) it’s a good spot.

Lovely stay.

We would go back. I loved it. My husband was a little less enthusiastic partly because we had to haul our bags up a couple short flights of stairs and partly because he had to duck while walking around the room. The ceiling was quite low and he is 6 ft tall. :) I’m not certain he was actually going to hit his head it was more that it felt like he might.
Amazing breakfast in a very quaint old room. If you are looking for modern this isn’t it, but if you like some national heritage and a good night sleep (great beds) this is it! Wish we could have stayed longer.

I enjoyed my time here. Great location for exploring the Alps, breakfast was delicious (pastries in particular), and the majority of the staff was nice to me as an English speaker. Despite concrete walls, there were some noisy neighbors on a couple nights (as late as 1:30am on a Sunday) but that’s hotel life. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I recommend.

Cute hotel, rooms could be more comfortable

The hotel was as expected and the staff were wonderful. We also enjoyed the breakfast and loved the location on the lake. Unfortunately, we were placed on the first floor with a street facing room and the noise from cars and motorcycles speeding by kept us up all night. The beds also were quite uncomfortable.

I enjoyed my stay. Was disappointed as we asked for a water view room and ended up with a back room our dining table was also at the back. I’m wondering if it was because we booked through Hotels .com instead of direct. The restaurant had a very restricted menu because of COVID so it’s hard to rate as I’m vegetarian wasn’t much choice. It was close to everything.

Nice location right on the main street near the older part of town. The hotel is comprised of two buildings/restaurants on either side of the street. We got a room on the side of the street facing the lake (gorgeous). The room was above the restaurant, but it was only open for lunch this time of year, so it was quiet by 5pm. 7 min walk from Brienz West station and 15-20 min walk from main Brienz station. Room was clean but dated. View from the room was very nice, but because it was on the lake there were many insects and very hot. A fan and hairdryer would have been appreciated.

Hotel Brienzerburli in Brienz

Used the hotel for a single night stay for business. Free parking outside is a major bonus and the restaurant serves food until late (10pm) for weary travellers.

Shown to the reception by polite, English speaking staff.

We had a top floor room, with a balcony over-looking the lake which was simply beautiful.

The overall surroundings were very peaceful and nicely off the beaten track.

I would certainly recommend this hotel, and in fact will be adding it to our usual Swiss Holiday Itinerary in the future!

Nice hotel. Cozy small but clean room. Friendly service, good breakfast.
If you arrive by train and have difficulty walking make sure you get a taxi (may be difficult-Brienz is small), hotel is located at the very end of town. A good 20 min walk from train station.
