Turns out they had just opened 2 days ago and in addition to great wine, they have a small menu of tapas. Most are Italian and the Lasagna is probably the best I have ever had. The owners are incredible nice and really know their stuff around wine. They currently have mostly Italian wines and will be expanding to add wines from around Europe. Definitely worth a stop in if you want a good wine and a light snack or small dinner.

I got the cold platter which I was really excited about since it had Yak meat! My husband ordered the Austria pizza. I tried a bite it was really good! Definitely lots of options for the pizzas and you can get something pretty unique! His had an egg in the middle of it, which I don't think I have seen before in the US. Great place to come for drinks as well! I ordered the gluhwein and the Hugo spritz. I really enjoyed them. Service is excellent here! Our food came out pretty quick too.

Before I knew I was staying in an igloo... all I was told was:…read morea) "I booked a night for us up in the mountains... but we're not staying a hotel." b) "Make sure you bring all your WARMEST clothes... and a bikini." HUH? I was surprised with a trip to the Iglu-Dorf in Engelberg! Not knowing exactly what to expect was definitely part of the fun so I won't give it all away in my review, but here are some HIGHLIGHTS: 1) Friendly, knowledgable, helpful guides that are fluent in English and German. 2) HUGE igloo. It's much bigger than it looks from the outside complete with a bar and dining room! 3) Beautifully decorated inside with detailed ice sculptures in every room. Every year the sculptures focus around a different theme; this year's theme was "Comics & Cartoons." Characters from The Lion King, South Park, Snoopy, and many others were all carved in ice. We had the Batman room! 4) Delicious dinner with charcuterie & cheese, mushroom soup, fondue, and prosecco! For dessert we had chocolate cupcakes and coffee gelato! They definitely feed you well. It's very rich and FILLING, but much needed to survive the night. 5) Lovely guided moonlit night-hike around the Lake at Engelberg. They provide the snow shoes and trekking poles (as well as a little nip of Jägermeister half way through!) 6) There is a jacuzzi/hot tub IN the igloo! (So that's what I needed the bikini for...) Take full advantage of this-- it's SO nice after the hour hike in the snow, and it'll really warm you up before you go to bed. 7) TOASTY sleeping bags! Arctic-rated sleeping bags are no joke, and staying the night in the igloo much warmer than I would have ever expected... I would totally recommend it to anyone who's looking for a new experience! It's an exceptional and truly memorable once in a lifetime adventure!

Sleep in an igloo A…read morenight at the Iglu Dorf is definitely a cool experience. There are a few places in Switzerland where they offer the night in the igloo. The one in Engelberg/Trübsee is with 1800m probably one of the lowest places, but with the Titlis mountain right beside it makes a fantastic two day trip and we had plenty of snow. After a small walk the dinner is served, Gerber fondue. I had better, but I didn't expect too much in an igloo. It is the experience that counts. At the bar various drinks can be bought. I don't recommend booking the special candle light dinner, as it is simply just means that you get a table for two alone and a bottle of white wine. Our group was an internationally mix of nice people. Hence mingling is no problem. The guides are very friendly and help to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The igloos are decorated with a different theme each year. I was a bit disappointed that there were no ice scupltures and not a classical ice bar. Maybe they change that next year. A cool thing is the Jacuzzi where you can have a hot bath and see the stars above you, as the igloo is open on the top at the hot tub. There is a heated room where you can get changed, so definitely bring your swimming clothes! The personal igloo room is nicely decorated and illuminated with LEDs. The bed is lined with fur and has a special sleeping bag. With a normal pyjama you will heat up the air and not freeze. The igloo is constant at around 0 degree, and I definitely did not feel cold during the night. We had a room with it's own WC. Else you may have to walk 40m to get to the public toilette during the night ;-) The breakfast is served early in the morning at the Alpstübli restaurant, which is a 10min walk from the igloo. All in all a very special experience, I definitely would do it again.

I've never been impressed with the food at an Irish pub--until now! My wife and I took our…read morepicky-eater teen niece there after skiing and she immediately found something she liked on the menu; the Mozzarella and Tomato sandwich! My wife ordered the same and I asked for the Roast Beef sandwich made with rare meat. Our consummately professional server assisted us in selecting our three- and five-deciliter flights from their vast array of beers on tap. Our orders arrived in just a few minutes and we were amazed at the quality of the food and attention to detail, such as the hearty, lightly toasted sandwich rolls and the perfectly-seasoned "Country" fries, which were wonderfully hot and creamy inside. My wife and niece simply couldn't stop raving about how great their entrees were, and I was equally enamored with my tender and juicy roast beef sandwich. Our image-conscious 17 year-old instagram-influencer niece was enthralled by the bar's warm, colorful atmosphere and we enjoyed it as well. BTW, the bathrooms are spotless, which is not exactly de rigueur in Irish pubs.

If you want to ski Gemsstock it is in a good location. It is about an 8-minute walk over to the train station and Andermatt ski lift.

Hotel Sonne was such a cozy place to stay. Our room was so nice! Everything was very clean. They did come and clean our room daily. We also ate here. I think this is one of the best restaurants in town if you want some traditional Swiss food. They've got a huge menu with lots of options.
