Been coming here since I was a small kid, and the hotel manages to surprise us with a terribly warm reception and outstanding service. Every year something has changed, so it remains a fresh experience everytime, but they keep the right ingredients. The way the hotel owners runtheir hotel is extraordinary. The staff (around 30ppl) is like a family, off... More

We just returned from our first stay at the Märchenhotel in Braunwald. After a welcome cocktail for us and our kids we were shown the reserved room as well as a family suite that became availabe and was offered to us for a reasonable upgrade price. We of course picked the family suite that is simply said fantastic, two large... More

The service was good and the staff was very friendly, being greeted by the owner and his wife is truly a rarity in today's day and age. The room was fantastic, comfortable, spacious and had a great view! The food is wonderful, dinner was always delicious and something that I looked forward to. The hotel is a short walk from... More

My vacation in Switzerland this summer was enhanced with my stay at Hotel Bellevue in Braunwald, Glarus. A perfect balance of family vacation enjoyment. Quiet zones for adults, playzones for active and energetic children, gourmet menus, comfortable rooms with breathtaking views. Wonderful! The website is especially notable. More

We spent 2 days with our 2 sons in Maerchenhotel Braunwald. Both, kids and parents are overwhelmed. We had a fantastic familiy room with an even better view. The staff is very friendly, most know guest (and their children by name). Our sons had been so enthusiastic about the attractions (kindergarten, climbing, pool etc) that they are completely exhausted. Food... More

In 1976, the current General Manager and owner Martin Vogel and his family transformed the ageing Bellevue into today’s “Fairy-Tale Hotel”. Family holidays and at the same time, holidays away from the family? The Vogels have created the perfect place for families. With a children's world, where TV just can't compete and an adult's paradise, where parents can relax and... More

Despite it's four stars hotel Bellevue is too expensive. Old building got it's charms, but the charm is being destroyed by the dominant Lady of the house who acts like she's a queen of Switzerland. She would be better to cut the guests some slack and not always put her nose into everything. The hotel just ain't worth four stars... More

I am astonished by the negative review below. We just returned from a week's stay at the Marchenhotel and it was one of the best experiences of my life. The owners really care about their guests and are there to welcome you when you arrive, show you to your room, explain the menu to you at dinner, serve the children's... More

This Hotel is very nice, beautiful location, perfect rooms, great atmosphere, not cheap but…..the management lacks total professionalism, and the worst thing is that they think they are the best! The first thing you notice is that this hotel is 100% focused on Swiss people, and foreigners are not really welcome. Knowing the couple that runs this hotel, you are... More
