Alpinhotel Bort

If you like the mountains and the views, it's great. The service is excellent and the reception treatment is very pleasant. You have to keep in mind that you do not go to a luxurious hotel, you go to a mountain hotel, and it complies with everything: good heating, parking next door, restaurant, you have the railway to go up and down right next door, etc.

The view was simply super.

Given the location of the property there is only 2 modes of access ( the gondola and hiking). From google earth it looked to be car accessible (private roadway) and we assumed either a taxi or the gondola could take us up. Well the gondola shut down due to some issue and it was poring rain. The hotel said a taxi could take us but after calling multiple taxis they couldn’t, and we just had no way of getting to the property because the hike was out of the picture with our luggage so we missed 1/2 nights at the hotel. We paid for another property and slept off our anger and frustration. In the morning we checked into our room and found that the bathroom was separate from the actual room for us. This was annoying given you would have to walk across a public hallway to get to our room. Whatever we said. Upon entering our room it was fairly clean but there was smashed bugs on the wall and ceiling. The room was clean other than that. We went to eat dinner which tasted okay. We both ordered the European version of a rib eye but what we received seemed like pork. Very chewy and wouldn’t recommend. Carrots overcooked to mush and potatoes bland. Just after dinner as soon as I made it upstairs to my room and sat on the toilet with some sort of food reaction. Was very unpleasant. Overall if you are a tourist DONT stay here given the location and the inconvenience it gives you while exploring Grindelwald. There are way nicer and cheaper hotels on grinldwald that are better.

Perfect Balance of Luxury & Nature One of the best mountain hotels i have seen, perfect balance of luxury & nature with wooden theme rooms. You cannot go wrong with this, it will be expensive & its is the only Hotel on BORT station, food is delicious but expensive. You cannot match the views from the room, restaurant with any other hotel or viewpoint in all of grindelwald & that speaks volume about the hotel Remember, it is only accessible by First Gondola. although you can walk uphill from grindelwald station but with bags I recommend taking gondola for the views & comfort.

It was amazing. Beautiful spot with stunning views. Food was good, room clean. Washroom outside of room was unusual but not bad. It was clean and modern. The only thing I didn’t like were the flies in the dining room. But I would still go back.
