If you're still having trouble deciding on lodging, BOOK THIS PLACE NOW. You will NOT regret it. I took a solo trip to Wengen in the summer of 2022 (yes, I do realize it's taken me forever to write this review, but know that's on me, with no relation to how much I adored this place!). I have traveled to many different places around the world, and this trip is my FAVORITE experience I've had, still to this day. And, I honestly believe in LARGE part was because of the choice I made in lodging.
I was only in Wengen for a very short time (4 days, 3 nights), but I also went having made no plans, and strategically picked a place that would be hospitable, so that I could just ask the owners for their advice, as I believe locals have a much better perspective than someone who is learning everything through the internet/books. Tomas went above and beyond. He helped sort out my itinerary for the day at the beginning of each day, and took into account things that I would enjoy, and was really good about timing too, like filling my day with hikes/sights and then gave me just enough time to get back for dinner. He did this quickly, thoroughly, and clearly.
Sara also was such a delight, always greeting me warmly in the morning, and even giving me a hug goodbye when I ran into her at the supermarket before leaving Wengen. The breakfasts and dinners here were top notch. The place really felt like a home away from home, which I especially appreciated, since I was traveling alone. I loved being able to come back sore and exhausted from the day's scenic activities, take a hot shower in their SUPER clean room, and then shuffle down to dinner all relaxed and in my comfy clothes. I also really loved that they had these lounge rooms where I could relax in the evenings, and have a hot tea before bed. They even had a piano in the other room, which I would've played on, had I had more time there!
I also loved being able to wake up early in the morning, relax in the quiet of the morning on the balcony, and hear nothing but birds chirping and cowbells. It's amazing how the sound of quiet is so rare, especially when we live in cities with the constant buzz of cars or highways in the distance. I will forever cherish my time in Wengen. Thank you SO MUCH Tomas, Sara, and the rest of the Hotel Eidelweiss team!!! I recommend your place continually to anyone I meet who is thinking of going to Switzerland! read more
