Hotels Near Engelberg - Titlis in Gadmen

Looking for a relaxing break in the Swiss Alos, close to the slopes, I found this little gem: a hotel, pretty rustique in the traditional Swiss way! Not far from the heart of Engelberg but far enough to contemplate the sky, see the stars and hear only the heartbeat of nature. Clean, very very clean, with comfortable rooms, not big, just comfy, most with a balcony overviewing the village. Staff, super nice and polite, ready to help and advise: had a 10% discount in my ski rental and anytime I wanted to go skiing they got in the minivan and took me to the resort! The restaurant was also nice, with delicious dishes and a savvy wine list. Not to miss! Only point I would like to note, the breakfast buffet: every day the same, not always fresh fruits available. Would like some variety and some chocolate croissants, please! Overall, a must go!

I have the pleasure of reviewing the Youth hostel in Engelberg, which I had the opportunity to visit during a school trip. Unfortunately, I have to note that the rooms were filled with an unpleasant fragrance, the wifi was out of service and I found it deeply disgusting that the duvets and pillows were not washed but were covered only by pillowcases of dubious hygiene. In pushing the duvet cover aside, I spotted a strangely colored stain that seemed to be an affirmation of lack of attention to cleaning, so I decided to sleep without it. Unfortunately, the smell forced us to keep the windows open during the night, making the experience even less comfortable. The quality of the food did not meet expectations, especially the meat consumed by me and my roommates caused us intestinal discomfort. The only positive aspect of the Youth hostel in Engelberg is represented by the view of the landscape that can be admired from the windows. In conclusion, I do not recommend this accommodation to anyone, as there are certainly far better alternatives.

Great and clean room, nice spa, but super disappointed by both restaurants. Upon arrival, reception recommended me to book a table. I was a bit surprised as I was solo and it was far from high season, but ok. They told me that the restaurant I wanted to book was full at 7:00pm, so I choosed 7:30. Was then quite surprised to arrive at 7:30 and find an almost empty restaurant (3 tables only with 2-3 guests each were occupied). The day after, as I was not sure when I'll be ready for dinner, I decided not to book. I showed up at 8:00 pm in the other restaurant. Was quite optimistic as it seemed there were as few people as the day before in the other restaurant. But then, the guy in charge told me they were fully booked and I had to come back half an hour later. After looking at the tables, I looked at him repeating ”you are fully booked” and he said yes. So I left and end up eating small things I had in my room. I am not sure if it was pure sexism, as I am a woman and alone, but definitely not the expected level from Kempiski. Will never return again.

一家老旅館，特別有味道。非常喜歡。 窗外有小河嘩嘩流淌，遠處教堂鐘聲到點就叮噹作響。關上窗户，很安靜。 傍晚下了雨，翌日清晨，天清氣朗。

Unsere Ausflug in der Schweiz war ein toller Erlebnis. Wir haben uns spontan entschieden für ein paar Tage wandern gehen. Für Übernachtung war noch nicht geplant. Nach dem ersten Tag waren wir auf der Suche nach eine Unterkunft für eine Nacht. Überall war schon alles besetzt, und dann letzte Versuch ein Hotel Sherlock Holmes in Meiringen. Es war schon spät 22:30 Uhr . Klingel an der Tür funktioniert, dann gehen die Türe auf . Rezeption war noch besetzt. Kurze Frage ob noch etwas frei ist und dann ja , natürlich Wir haben. Noch zwei Zimmer frei. Sofort ein Zimmer gebucht. An der Rezeption haben wir erfahren das unsere Zimmer ist in oberen Stock, mit Balkon , tollen Blick. Schnell Schlüssel und rein ins Zimmer. Komplette Zimmer Ausstattung mit Sherlock Holmes Motiven. Teppich , Duschvorhang , überall Bilder mit Fragmenten vom Arthur Conan Doyle - Sherlock Holmes Bücher . Fotos , Kommentare. Ein Hotel für Sherlock Holmes Fan ein muss. Nach eine erholsamen Nacht haben wir uns noch für den Frühstück der in Zimmer inbegriffen war entschieden.Frühstück ein Wahnsinn Backwaren frisch gebacken, Käse , und und und. Erste Eindruck Top, Zimmer sauber , Bad ordentlich geputzt, auch nachts warmes Wasser in Badewanne, morgens ein tolles Ausblick über die Berge. Frühstück für jeden Geschmack ein Leckerbissen, alles frisch gemacht, hilfsbereiter Bedienung . Sehr empfehlenswert.

We stayed here for two nights whilst trekking the Via Alpina route. We were very pleasantly surprised at the level of accommodation, our room was large and airy, well furnished with the most comfortable bed and, unusually, tea and coffee making facilities. The reception staff were very pleasant and helpful and breakfast was plentiful and varied, taken in a very grand dining room. The hotel is a beautifully preserved example of the old fin de siecle hotels once inhabited by the well to do of europe. Many interesting artefacts and pictures. We weren't able to eat evening meal here as the hotel only caters for large groups but that wasn't a problem as there are plenty of restaurants in Meiringen. Well worth a stay and close to the Sherlock Holmes museum which is also well worth a visit.

Lovely family run hotel, in central Meiringen. We chose this hotel because of its position and reviews. It is situated just a short walk from the station. The room was small, but very clean and overlooked the square. The only issue we had was that it was stifling hot in the room and the hotel does not have air conditioning (as many others in Switzerland do not). We found ourselves having to sleep with the windows wide open and even then it was difficult to get more than a couple of hours. The breakfast was not extensive, as many of the others we visited during our trip, but was nice and sufficient. The one thing we would have liked (aside from aircon) was the facility to make tea/coffee in our room as in our experience this is standard in 4* hotels.

Friendly staff at the reception, okayish at the breakfast (maybe a language issue? replying ”What?” to a customer politely calling isn't the appropriate answer!). None of them speak French. The room looked really nice, was well equipped and on the back street so quiet as well. The bed was comfortable, water kettle & tea available in the room. Travelling with our dog, I had checked before if he was allowed and nowhere was it written that there was an extra fee and the confirmation didn't mention this either despite announcing that we were with one in the comment box. On the + side, comfortable dog bed, bowl and treat was ready in the room, which was a really nice touch. Also a fee for the underground garage, mentioned nowhere. Warning: parking spots are narrow, we have a mid-size car which barely fit, so if you have an SUV or large car you may want to park in the street (free at night). Breakfast had a good choice, fresh pressed orange juice machine, quite varied choice. There is no restaurant at the hotel, but it is in the center of the village which has many options literally a few steps away, so absolutely not an issue.
