The hotel and room was very clean and housekeeping took good care of the room during our stay. We had a spa date and enjoyed this service greatly after a long day of hiking. At night time there is lots to do without leaving the hotel as their bar stays open until late and they have so many seats where one can sit and enjoy a night cap. Walking distance from the lift up to Grindewald first & within a few steps to lots of eateries!

The location is very central and everything is easily accessible. The hotel provides services of picking and dropping from the train station. They picked us up and dropped us off at the train station. Breakfast was included in our reservations and they have nice buffet style breakfast with lots of great options . The swimming pool is nice to enjoy as a family. They also have a kids play area. Loved their outdoor patio with the beautiful views. I am taking two stars off because the housekeeping never took the towels that I kept on the floor to be taken away and replaced. Instead of replacing the towels that were on the shower floor, they folded the wet towels and put them back for us to use instead of giving us new ones. Also, their hotel restaurant adlerstube - has really bad service. The blond lady is extremely rude, they kept us waiting to order for a really long time. Finally food arrived and it was really good but again no one came to check if we needed anything. Also the check never arrived , finally waiting for a good 20 minutes I went up to ask to pay. Food was good but because of the service it ruins the whole experience . The hotel needs to be mindful of this and make sure they are looking into it.

My wife and I were married in Lake Como on June 29th. Our reception was held at Lido Di Lenno. We…read morearrived by boat from the wedding, although it is possible to walk to it from the street. When we stepped off the boat, there was a grassy area where the staff had hors d'oeuvres set up at a long table with a white tablecloth. There were cute little white wicker furniture sets with tables so the guests could mingle, take pictures, sip Prosecco and look out at the lake. When it was time for dinner, we moved from the grassy area to our tables, which were positioned perpendicular to the lake so everyone had a great view. The dinner was in the marquee - a permanent outdoor area with tile flooring covered by a big white tent. We had the garden half of the marquee to ourselves, so our seating area was adjacent to the grassy garden area where the hors d'oeuvres were served. The sides of the marquee were able to be closed independently so that as the sun was setting, strategic flaps were folded down to prevent the sun from annoying people as they ate while still letting a breeze into the marquee. The champagne was poured just before we were seated, and we had enough of it for everyone's toasts. After the champagne, there was red and white wine for the table. The antipasti we chose was the smoked salmon. It was a huge dish of thinly sliced salmon perfectly smoked and beautifully presented. The primi piatti we selected was a pasta with prawns. The pasta was cooked al dente and the prawns were very light and fresh. The secondi piatti was the beef limousine and vegetables. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare with a pink center and was very tender and juicy. Nothing about our wedding was conventional and we stayed true to that with dessert. Instead of a wedding cake, we selected a special dessert. With a wedding party of 32, there will always be a dish that someone doesn't care for because maybe they don't eat fish or they don't eat meat. But EVERYONE LOVED the chocolate fondue. They brought huge dishes of fruit with skewers and bowls of melted dark chocolate. The staff also brought out espresso. It was the perfect ending to a great meal. We had the area under the tent (the marquee) for as long as we wanted. But after dinner and drinks and long day, some people began to go back to the hotel. We stayed at the Albergo Lenno, which was less than a mile around the lake. It is a beautiful walk and very doable, especially since there are gelateria's along the way. But we also rented a bus for those in need of assistance for one reason or another. Inside the bar area was a dance floor and a local DJ (that we did not have to pay for) who played a great selection of popular songs that you would hear off the radio at home. We danced into the night with the locals and had a blast. They closed around 2am. It is also worth noting that on the other side of the dance floor is a large opening to a beach area. This was a large area with sand and lounge chairs. The kids loved playing in the sand in their wedding clothes .

Man achtet auf die lokale Herkunft der Zutaten, die Frische merkt man den Menüs an, ebenso die Liebe die ins Kochen gesteckt wird. Es gibt hier keine Fernseher, darum ist man am Abend mal gezwungen sich mit seinen Kollegen Seminarteilnehmern auseinanderzusetzen anstatt in die Glotze zu schauen!

Stumbled across this place while cruising around a particularly picturesque shoreline at Lenno, we'd not long gotten off the ferry and the sun was shining and we were kinda peckish. This restaurant is big, and serene in that shade-dappled, lake-view kind of way that makes you want to put on a white hat and undo the top three buttons of your shirt. We got the menu del dia and spread ourselves out on the patio - the pizzas were great, the pasta was great, the tuna salad was double great, the fresh bread with olive oil and vinegar was great, and the Aperol Spritzes were damn fine thanks mister.

The studio itself is very inviting and feels like you are coming into someone's home. After we arrived and checked in we were led into the event kitchen and given hats and aprons to put on for the chocolate bar making. Our host led us through their chocolate sourcing process and then we got to make our own chocolate bars. Once completed she gave us a tour of the working kitchen and we got to watch the head chocolatier making fresh filling and truffles. Once the tour was complete we were led into a dining room space where we got to sample a bunch of the current seasonal truffles and chocolates as well as cacao juice made from the white pulp that surrounds the beans inside the pods. While this class did not turn me into an at home chocolatier, it was very fun and informative and we had a great time. We also got to meet the owner, Patrik, who was incredibly friendly and visited with us about his son Max and how the company got it start.
