The Alpina Lodge

I was here for a week in spring time for a hiking holiday.|Hotel and staff was great. Excellent service, friendly people and great food. There were only a few other people in the hotel at this time, and they all were her for the same reason. We had some excellent hikes with these other guests, and we were dropped off and picked up by the hotel staff.|All in all, a great week and a great experience. Even better for Dutch people because they all speak Dutch.||So, for the boring but important stuff. Hotel was clean, room was clean and large. We had our own bathroom, you can also pick a room with a shares bathroom. |Breakfast was not extensive, but very nice with fresh stuff. Can make your own lunch for on the way.|Staff goes out of their way to create a great dinner and takes in consideration your diet requirements.||All in all, would recommend!

Wonderful community of Tschiertschen, outside of Chur. Alpina Lodge is a wonderful, interesting old building. You do feel transported way back in time. Unfortunately, it could be so much more with a little attention. I believe that the Alpina Resort (sister property up the hill) has taken all the attention or the Lodge is not interested in Summer guests. The plumbing was in need of help - water pressure for showers, toilet, sink was not what it should have been. Mattresses need to be updated. Sleeping was not good due to the adjacent church bells going off every hour - all night – reverberating off the bedroom walls!!! Alpina Lodge should forewarn guests of this!!! It was SOOO LOUD in the room – ear plugs barely dampened the sound! Breakfast was terrible – very basic, egg cooker was broken – but they served the raw ‘boiled’ eggs anyway (all guests that morning returned them!). We did venture up to the Alpina Resort for drinks/dinner – and that was a disappointment as well. Guests beware – the price is low for a reason. We were only there for one night, so we took a chance.

Very nice location, magnuficent views, rooms are acceptable, but it depends on what you’re looking for. We came from a nice hotel in St.Moritz, read some of the reviews and thought it would be nice to make a visit to the lodge. We are u fortunately leaving a bit dissapointed. ||Great for travellers just in need of a bed and a quick shower. |

We stayed here one night on our way to Italy. Extraordinary view, clean rooms and very nice staff. The food was ok. Playground five minutes walk trough the village and a nice lookout just in front of the hotel. Highly recommend this hotel!

Our family if 4 (mom, dad and 2 kids) stopped here for 1 night on our way back from Italy. |Friendly staff and great views.|A bit varm in the room at night, but we came in the middle of a heat wave, so what to do? 😉|Kids comments: Nice and comfy. Fun and "hygge".

We arrived at 9:10 pm, most of the village was in the darkness. Finally found the Lodge in the darkness down a little lane, but not a soul anywhere. Reception closed. Passing tourist told me I need to go to Alpina Resort and disappeared into the darkness. 15 mins wondering up and down the dark lanes, ringing some door bells (but nobody appeared anywhere). Finally found an email with the phone number, phoned the resort and got some explanation how to find it. Have to take about 4 or 5 turns up the twisting lanes to find it... No apology for the convenience, we got the key. Has it not occurred to anybody to leave a message at the lodge, telling late arrivals where to go and a EVEN maybe little map of how to get there????||Then a long discussion in the resort about getting something to eat - at the unearthly hour of 9.40 pm. First response was not even bread and cold meats, finally somebody took pity and gave us a cold meat plate.||Well, I can respect that in places like that people go to bed before 9pm. But what about some live reception service after breakfast - at about 9:30 am?. I was certainly not going to wonder up the hill to the resort again to check out of the lodge. So I disgustedly left the key in the breakfast room and left. I will see if and how I will get an invoice...||Breakfast was also quite pathetic. A bit of ham, but not even a piece of cheese - in Switzerland! One meagre bowl of muesli - in Switzerland!||I am happy to pay the high Swiss prices for the customary high standard Swiss customer service. But here the only thing high was the price tag||The village was very beautiful - mostly preserved old Swiss chalets||Oh, and the hotel states that parking is available. This is highly misleading - parking is available only on the road outside the village

The best hospitality you could ever have with Ferenc. What a very pleasant person! The views are also incredible and everything about our stay was just superb!

Much better than what I expected for the price, more than decent, excellent bedding, scrupulously clean, very authentic alpine feel. The kind of place I come to Switzerland for.
