“Nice hotel, but very hot.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed here for three nights in August 2011. It is a lovely hotel in a PERFECT location. The staff was very helpful, and the rooms were nice and comfortable. My major complaint is that it was not well ventilated. I am aware that most hotels in Europe do not have AC, but for such an expensive rate, I feel like they should provide more than one fan per room.

The view is very good, as was the breakfast.

“Clean hotel, convenient, could use better service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2011

person found this review helpful

We liked the location since we were traveling by train and it's a few minutes walk from Interlaken West. The facilities were clean and in good condition. The service was a little weak, but they are trying.

We stayed at the Stella because of it's convenience, and indeed we were able to walk to the train station or the city center or any restaurants without any problems.

The hotel facility is nice. There's a pool that we didn't use and a nice sunny restaurant. The room was clean and comfortable. One unusual item was a showerhead that glowed different colors as you took a shower. I'm not sure how it works, but it was fun.

The service was a puzzle. The manager always greeted us at breakfast to say he was sure it would be wonderful weather today, and he was right. The receptionists always called out a greeting when we went by, offering any kind of help. Now here comes the "however." The hotel serves lots of bus tours and when those locusts hit the breakfast bar, everyone else is out of luck. There were several young people servicing the breakfast bar and they were not too enthusiastic about refilling the dishes.

We're Americans and we expect ice cubes for our room. That was 2 CHF. That's not acceptable to us, but probably quite normal in Europe.

Dear GenghisKhan

Thank you for your feedback here on tripadvisor and also thank you very much for staying with us at the Stella!

It is nice to read, that you enjoyed the staff's friendliness - this is what we try hard. Of course, we also discussed the other points you mentioned in a management's meeting, especially the refilling of the breakfast bar and do really try harder to serve our guests more efficiant.

So we hope to see you again by another chance to prove you, that there is an improvement on the mentioned points. In the meantime we wish you all the best.

Kind regards

“Great view from hotel room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

Stayed two nights in the hotel. Though hotel is slightly off the main road, it is still an easy 15 minutes walk to the main railway station. The view of the mountains from the room was excellent!

Dear sumer_82

Thank you very much for staying with us, thank you very much for posting such a nice review and thanks a lot to your travel agent for booking us ;-)

It was a pleasure to have you here at the Stella in the lovely Jungfrau region! I also feel, that the hotel location near the city center in an area where inhabitants live is good, because it is calmer douring night and within 5 minutes walking, you are at the Interlaken west station or in the city center.

Thank you also for the feedback about the television. We changed them already to a biger model and are trying to improve our service all the time. Thank you for helping us in this matter.

We hope, to see you another time at the Stella and in the meantime we wish you all the best.

Kind regards
Bastian Hofmann

“Quiet, Peaceful. Patient and Understanding Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Stayed for 2 nights in September. Hotel is located in a residential area not far from the main thoroughfare. Nearest train station is Interlaken West, follow the signs immediately outside the station and walk right to the end of General Guisanstrasse road.

Nearby within 3 minute walk are numerous restaurants, Mexican, German, Indian and camera shops and also general provisions.

Hotel houses an indoor pool with bar, a restaurant and many classes of hotel rooms. Having stayed in a single economy room, it is sufficient for a solo traveller, with a big wardrobe, sufficient fridge, single-sized bed and a tiny television. Bathroom is large enough to move freely, where the multi-coloured lighting in the shower an interesting addition.

Not knowing how to operate the window at check-in, the lady at the counter, Christine, was wonderful in coming up at 11pm at night to demonstrate the operation of the window and helped set up the paid wi-fi.

Room is warm without opening the window even if it's 10 deg outside, but opening the windows while sleeping poses a certain risk as the balcony was a whole stretch partitioned by what looks like plastic screwed-in panels. Room was very clean though and there were little chocolates given every day as gift.

Breakfast was limited to cold dishes mainly, around 7 types of bread and self service egg station with pan available for use.

Interesting key system and a large variety of tours available for sale. public transport card available for all guests. All service staff were courteous and helpful, especially the morning service ones.

Room Tip: Ask for rooms on the side that look out to Jungfraujoch
