EIGER LODGE

We really enjoyed our stay in Eiger Lodge. It is conveniently located next to the terminal and is a walk away from town. A pass is provided to also access the local buses. We were pleasantly surprised by how modern and new the room and ensuite was. And the thoughtful design even with the blackout curtains. Breakfast was amazing with endless options to choose. All staff were friendly and welcoming.

it is one of my favourite accommodation of my trip. the staff area so nice and it is next to the cable car station and could assets to the train station via the cable car station. I love the balcony with an amazing view of eiger mountain. there is a microwave at the breakfast area and it would be great to heat the food at the balcony of the room. the only thing I would suggest for improvement is installing a door at the bathroom. I would recommend to stay here instead of staying in the centre of Grindelwald.

Very conveniently located right next to the train and bus stations. The rooms are clean and spacious. Hotel staff are also very friendly and make sure we had everything we need. Breakfast was of good quality with fresh bread from nearby bakery every morning. The highlight of the stay was a cute and friendly hotel cat called Peppa who lounges in the lobby area everyday! It was an enjoyable stay overall.

The hotel was quite nice and the three of us overall, really enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was great and the service was outstanding. The room overall was quite good, but there are a couple of things we wish were improved upon. During summer the room gets quite warm, even with the blinds down. A fridge would've been great to keep certain things cool. The wifi was not straightforward as with other hotels and you need a phone number to access it. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

The lodge provided a fantastic and tasty continental breakfast with fresh ingredients. There were many options available, including lighter options like fruit, milk, yogurt, granola, and cereal, to heavier breakfast items like sausages, cold cuts, scrambled eggs, butters, and fresh bread. We were able to make sandwiches to keep with us for lunch during our hike on the mountain. We stayed at the Lodge for a few days while we were in Switzerland, and the front desk was quite helpful in directing our stay. The view was fantastic, and the showers were clean. No complaints here!

Could not recommend this place more! Staff (especially Mirka) were incredibly helpful and accommodated every need. Safe luggage storage before check-in, delicious breakfast, and spectacular bedroom views. We actually preferred staying a little walk outside of the busy heart of town. Our stay included a free bus pass, discounted lift tickets, and a discount at their sister restaurant in town. We’d love to stay here again!

Perfect place to hang around Grindelwald or go up in the mountains with the terminal next to it. Very nice rooms with perfect views on the north face of the Eiger. Great bed and very calm night. Very warm welcome with an amazing team 🙌

Eiger Lodge had million dollar views when the skies were clear and a great location with just minutes to the train station and Grindelwald Terminal for cable car transfers to the big mountains. Sadly, that's where all the good news ends.||I am generally not a complainer, but Eiger Lodge is one of those places that people need to be made more aware of. I read all the reviews, and thought this was going to be a cracker of a place. But wow, did I get a shock!!!||The chic rooms (bear in mind that these rooms are the best they had to offer) were VERY basic - no kettle or tea/coffee making facilities, no wardrobes, no fridge (which we needed to keep life-saving medication cool), no safe to keep your valuables in, a lumpy pillow (or was it just a bunch of stuffing inside a pillow case? - I couldn't tell), two single beds put side by side rather than a queen bed and a communal kitchen with a couple of microwaves and kettles to re-heat meals and boil water that felt like I was back at a secondary school camp again.||And what's with those usb ports and powerpoints at the bed head? The effect of having your phone charging cable dangling in your face at night was an interesting one. ||The best way I could describe the chic rooms was a glorified back-packers room with your own private bathroom. ||The only time you could make or get a coffee in the communal high school breakfast area was during breakfast time (7am-10am), and outside those hours, they close off the area with the coffee machine, so you're forced to go and buy one somewhere else.||There are only 2 restaurants nearby: one connected to Eiger "Lodge" (and I use the word lodge VERY loosely) and the other a few minutes walk away. Other than that, there are no shops, no services, no facilities anywhere nearby unless you're prepared to do a very hilly 15-20 minute walk into the central township of Grindelwald.||The local bus system shuts down at around 7.00-7.30pm, so if you're not back at the "lodge" by then, you're basically stuck wherever you are with no way to get back other than by foot, or selling a kidney to afford to use the train system (and good luck figuring THAT out while you're here and working out which package suits you best). ||Look, if you wanted budget accommodation and were trying to get away with staying somewhere cheap for the night and prepared to pay budget prices, it would be fine. The room (basic as it was), was clean enough with a decent shower, but for over $430AUD/night including the city taxes, I can't justify the exorbitant and extortionist pricing.||The only good thing management did (after I made a fair point and reasonable request) was bring a small bar fridge to our room for the medication which was greatly appreciated as we were not prepared to leave it in a communal fridge with a bunch of total strangers having access to it.||Do your research. Shop around. Would I recommend staying here to anyone else or would I come back and stay here again? Hell no I would not!!! Surely there has to be better options out there for the price.
