I stayed for two nights recently in the Belvedere Strandhotel & Restaurant and my stay was too short! I would have loved to stay longer and have time to take in the magnificient views from my breakfast table - a lake below and mountains in the near distance. The rooms were perfect; the pillow and bed wonderfully comfortable and, for... More

We stayed for three nights and had a "mountain view" room. The room was noisy being above the kitchen and the tour buses loaded outside our room very early in the mornings. We did not get a good night’s sleep. I think the lake room views would be much better. The dinner meals were a lot more than we could... More

Great place! Definitely recommend. Wonderful breakfast with eggs/omelets cooked to order. This is more French speaking area of Switzerland. We walked about 7 mins. from train station on hot day. Staff very attentive to our needs and provided refreshing water. One thing we're getting used to in Switzerland: they don't serve drinks cold, just cool. And when you ask for... More

We stayed with our 4 year old son in a family room (#101 & 102) with excellent view across the lake and towards the castle. This suite is at the opposite end of the hotel to the conference centre and benefits from being quieter. Room facilities were as I would expect for the price. All staff were extremely polite and...

The best part about this hotel is its location. It sits up on a hill with a commanding view of the Spiez marina and Lake Thun.

Very smart rooms and a well organised hotel. A good continental breakfast. We had the half board menu which we found of excellent quality. Our only minor gripe was that it was difficult to ventilate the rooms adequately when the weather was warm - wedges for the balcony doors would be useful. Excellent view over the lake from the dining... More

My wife and I have stayed at this hotel on three occasions, and I agree with the posting below (except that they are no longer members of the Relais de Silence and omelettes only seem to be served at Sunday breakfasts). The hotel has much that is good about it (view, cuisine - as long as this chef lasts -... More

My husband and I, and a friend, spent a night at the Strand Hotel Belvedere in Spiez in December. We had gone to a concert in Bern, and all the hotels in the city were booked solid since the Schweitzerhof is closed for renovations, taking some 300 beds off the market! Spiez is a lovely small town about 30 minutes... More
