“Friendly service, convenient location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2011
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed at the Hotel Jungfrau Lodge in February 2011, as a home base for skiing. From the first welcome, and throughout our stay, the staff at this family run hotel were always friendly and helpful. The hotel is divided into two sections; the older (but very well maintained) original Swiss Mountain Hotel and the newer Crystal Hotel, directly across the street. Some rooms have magnificent views of the Eiger mountain.

Breakfast and dinner are served in the Swiss Mountain Hotel’s dining room. Breakfast consisted of fruit (fresh and canned), a variety of hot and cold cereals, sliced ham and salami, cheeses, eggs, freshly baked pastries and breads, coffee, tea, and orange juice. Something for everyone’s tastes, and certainly enough to fuel our morning of skiing. Dinners were always well presented and delicious. Each night, there would be an appetizer, soup, main course, and dessert. Always something different, and delicious.

The ski bus stops about 50 meters from the hotel and the train station is about 350 meters away, in central Grindelwald. The number 11 and 12 buses will both take you to the train station in the center of town. The number 12 bus continues on to the gondola ski lift for the Grindelwald-First ski area. From the train station, you can catch the train to Keine Scheidegg, the jumping off point for the massive ski areas of Keine Scheidegg and Mannlichen, which includes Wengen and the famous Lauberhorn Downhill racecourse. Murren and Schilthorn are a bit further away and requires two trains, but are well worth the trip.

Don’t forget to do stop for lunch at one of the many huts, located mid-mountain all throughout the area. Or, ski into town and buy some goodies for your own picnic lunch. It’s a perfect chance to take in the amazing views all around you, catch some sun and refuel for the afternoon’s adventures!

“Fantastic view of the Eiger from the room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2010
4
people found this review helpful

We had corner room in the new part of the hotel, which had a fabulous uninterrupted view of the Eiger. The building was a seventy's style concrete block which was not sympathetic with Alpine architecture. However, the room was comfortable, spacious with a balcony front and back.

The breakfast buffet was very good and was served in the old part of the hotel across the road. The breakfast room also had lovely views.

The staff were helpful and friendly.

Grindelwald is an excellent base for hiking. We went to the top station on the “First” cable car and walked back to the village via the beautiful Bachalpsee Lake.

I would recommend both the hotel and Grindelwald.

“World class views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2010

No matter where you stay in Grindelwald, I recommend paying extra for a room with a view - notice that for most hotels the price goes up if you can see the Eiger from your window or balcony. The best part of the Jungfrau Lodge was the excellent view of the Eiger and the Maennlichen and Kleine Scheidegg areas from room balcony. The breakfast was also excellent, and the staff was kind and very patient with my poor German. I highly recommend staying here.

“Superb Location for mountains”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 March 2010

Enjoyed a fabulous week at the Jungfrau Lodge in order to ski the regions pistes. The welcome offered when we arrived was warm and friendly. This level of service was extended to us all week long by every member of the staff, who could not do enough to help. Even the cleaners asked us if we had enjoyed our stay as we were leaving.

Our room was a good size, simply decorated, with twin beds (which had been pushed together to make a double), and a fabulous duvet. The only small down side for us was a single floppy pillow each. However, this was large enough to fold in half if you usually sleep with two pillows. We did not feel that this warranted a complaint. The bathroom was equipped with a hairdryer in addition to the expected facilities.
Our room was cleaned and bed made daily to a high standard, and towels changed at your request.

We stayed on a half board basis. Traditional continental breakfast included bread rolls, jams and spreads, cereals, boiled eggs, orange juice, tea and coffee. Bacon and fried eggs were available for an additional supplement. Dinner was a set 4 course menu, which usually consisted of a salad starter, soup, main course (pork, chicken, turkey), and dessert (ice cream, sorbet). All meals were good, and well received after a hard day on the slopes.

The hotel is situated close to the railway station (less than 5 minutes walk uphill), with a wonderful view across the valley to the mountains. Rooms at the front of the hotel would have a fantastic view of the Eiger. The ski bus stops yards away to carry skiiers to the Grindelwald 'First' gondola station, whilst the railway station provides access to the Jungfrau and Shiltorn ski areas.
Shops and bars are also within easy walking distance, again uphill.

The hotel provides a computer with internet access, available free to all guests, in the reception area. This proved to be extremely useful to check weather conditions etc..

All in all, we would definately return to the Jungfrau Lodge and thank them all for their part in making our trip to Switzerland very special.
