Pit Stop
Nice stop over for one night as part of much longer trip. . Quite pricey for what’s on offer - but it’s Switzerland - so to be expected. Minimal, basic breakfast. But great spot and easy walk into Engelberg

Owner family helped carry heavy luggage up the stars - provided electric adapters for our laptops and CPAP machines. Scenery and the sound of cowbells clinking was heavenly! Would stay again on our return trip but they are closing for 3 weeks to prepare for winter season.

It’s just a one night stay but it’s absolutely good except for the pillows.. maybe needs some upgrades with the pillows. The location and views are spectacular can’t complain about it. Love the area pretty laid back and so peaceful and quiet. A Longer walk from the bus stop than expected. Excellent breakfast, friendly staffs, clean room and clean water with no smell. Updated bathroom ( medium size)..

Die Unterkunft ist super süss und passt perfekt zu Engelberg. Ein kuscheliges und praktisches Hotel, ein lieblich eingerichtetes Hotel mit Zimmern welche auch stimmungsvoll eingerichtet sind.
Der Check In war einfach und praktisch, das Frühstück bot auch alles über diverse Brote, Fleischvariation, Müesli‘s etc.
Klein aber fein. =)

Perfeito! Desenho de Deus na terra
Perfeita!!!!!!! Já viajei muito, graças a Deus, mas esse lugar foi minha eleição, de lugar preferido no mundo! A calmaria e tranquilidade dessa cidade em meio as montanhas nesse hotel maravilhoso… não existem palavras para descrever. Inclusive, irei voltar em outros janeiros para ver a neve novamente, veja mais linda da minha vida.
