H+ Hotel & SPA Engelberg
4.5/574 Reviews
Very good hotel, the facilities are a bit old, but the attitude of the staff is very nice and polite. The scenery is very good, and the restaurant is also good for food!
Bellevue-Terminus - Urban Lifestyle Hotel
4.4/557 Reviews
The hotel is located just opposite the train station with (ski) bus stop. Luckily the hotel has sound proof windows. Very stylish renovated hotel, keeping the old heritage. The room was small but comfy with nice view. The hotel parking is 15.- per night, what is okay. The management has chosen to implement 2G rule (German shortening for vaccinated/recovered), although according Federal Covid-19 ordinance, this only applies for hotel’s restaurant/bar. This should be more clear stated on the booking site.
Hotel Krone Sarnen
4.1/515 Reviews
Been to this hotel's restaurant a couple times already and really must recommend. The service staff are genuinely sweet and offer top-notch service especially to tourists. The food is consistently high quality, beautifully plated, piping-hot, fresh and enjoyable. I have just not even been slightly disappointed with this restaurant. Yesterday, my husband and I dined on Schnitzel and fries... crispy schnitzel, excellent, hot fries and some insanely mouthwatering ice-cream creations for dessert. Looking forward to trying their weekly lunch specials which are reasonably priced for Swiss standards. Their outdoor seating patio is comfortable and perfect for people-watching in this delightful city in Central Switzerland.
Hotel Engelberg "mein Trail Hotel"
4.3/530 Reviews
Thank you for a wonderful stay at your charming hotel. We arrived with reservations to an engleberg hotel in Germany! Yet the kind staff were able to accommodate us even though the hotel was very full. We enjoyed the use of the children’s playroom where our 2 year old granddaughter had lots of fun on one rainy afternoon. Our room was clean and spacious with a comfy bed and a delicious breakfast. We had to mail the room key back to them when we realized on the train to Murren that we had not returned it when we checked out! We are usually much better guests than that. I guess it was time to head home and stop traveling!
Frutt Lodge & Spa Managed by Kempinski
4.5/560 Reviews
The location of the hotel, with the view and panoramic views are just wonderful in winter. Short ways to all activities. In the hotel it is cozy and lighter, not too large and gives a certain personality. The friendliness of the service staff in the restaurants is fantastic. Thanks for it. The quality of the food is also great. The fact that you are served in the reception with English unquestionably has surprised us. The spa is great and versatile, the swimming pool is a little too small for the number of guests in the time of shot after skiing. But a absolute recommendation and always like to be back.

Hotel Bänklialp
4.2/513 Reviews
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!
Verena's Boutique Villa au Lac
4.5/520 Reviews
Verena is a lovely lady, very chatty and only too happy to assist. Her house is beautifully renovated, wonderfully clean, and in a great location for exploring the local places - however as a fellow B&B owner (who regularly receives 10/10 on Booking com from my guests), I felt Verena’s guest house is best described as a “posh hostel”. She claims to have spent many years in luxury hospitality but as a guest it’s not luxurious if: 1) you have to take your dressing gown, towels, bath mat, wash bag and clothes into a shared bathroom; 2 shared bathrooms and two separate toilets for 5 bedrooms (10 people) is not luxurious. 2) you have to climb over your partner to get out of bed because the bed is jammed up against the wall on three sides, and as such you have no where to put anything during the night, no bedside table, or even a shelf above the headboard. 3) you have to go into the shared bathroom just to use the provided hairdryer. I do not understand why there isn’t one in each room. 4) you have to forgo reading your book in bed because the only (minuscule) bedside lamp is on the other side of the bed. In this modern era, and at £200 a night (even in Oct!), a shared bathroom / toilet is not acceptable (all of my rooms are ensuite); so it never even occurred to me to check that the rooms might not be ensuite at that price 😳 We stayed two nights and as such the room was tidied during our stay - but - all the towels that we had used were folded up ‘as new’ and put back on the rail amongst the unused towels. As conscientious eco friendly users we thought this an odd thing to do. We wanted to use the minimum amount of towels possible, but I had no idea what I had or hadn’t used so quite probably the whole lot would have to be washed unnecessarily after our stay, when we restricted ourselves to using just one towel each. Based on Verena’s system, keeping your towels in your room makes sense, however there is only a pretty metal stand on which to hang them up, there is not the usual radiator on which they can be hung to dry / air when damp.
Engelberg Youth Hostel
4.2/56 Reviews
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.
Hotel Kreuz by b-Smart
4.2/535 Reviews
We found this to be a nice hotel and good value for the time of year. The hotel itself is very historical, and served as a hotel for hundreds of years, establishing as a place for religious pilgrims to go. The patron saint of Switzerland is buried at the church next-door. The hotel isn't fancy, and you do self-check in. It worked pretty well, and folks at the bar/restaurant will help if you are stuck - people working at the hotel are friendly and helpful. There is a decent elevator (which is not a given in Europe) and the included breakfast is reasonable. We had a junior suite for our party of 3, and it was basic but nicely appointed. Only problem is that the pull out couch was super uncomfortable, so my daughter just slept on it as a couch. There is no air conditioning, which isn't a problem most of the time, I'm sure. We had dinner at the restaurant downstairs one night and it was fantastic! Both food and service were outstanding, and a great find in a small town like Sachseln. We liked basing in Sachseln - all of the charm of Lucerne without the crowds and high prices, and close to places like Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and Grindlewald. One more warning: the church next door has bells ringing a lot. Our junior suite didn't have a lake view and I am glad because lake view would have been directly by the church so the bells would have been louder!
