My stay at the hotel was simply delightful! The rooms were spacious and offered breathtaking views of the Eiger, and the dining experience was fantastic, especially the breakfast. The staff made us feel at home with their warm and attentive service. If there's a downside, it's that I wish there were even more dining options, but overall, I couldn't have asked for a better place to unwind in nature.

We had a lovely stay at the Boutique Hotel Glacier, celebrating my husband's birthday in a cozy yet elegant environment. The honeymoon room was charming, featuring a private jacuzzi with breathtaking views. However, our arrival experience was marred by a long wait for check-in, and a few service hiccups during our dining experience left room for improvement. Overall, though, we enjoyed our stay with fantastic breakfast options and a welcoming atmosphere.
