This a a wonderful town in its own right, lovely buildings, pretty squares, charming coffee houses and restaurants etc but it is all that surrounds the town that makes it the wonderful tourist hub that it is!

Besides, most hotel/hostel in town .provide... More

Nice view. Pleasant and peaceful. Weather was unstable so wasn't able to visit Jungfraujoch. Enjoyed the train rides and cable car rides to visit villages and towns in the area.
