The best hotel during our 8 nights stay in Switzerland. Lovely views from the room. Our son enjoyed sleeping in the attic beds. The breakfast was OK and the hosts are lovely people.
The village of Kandersteg is a place to behold.

Winter wonderland
Kandersteg, located in the Swiss Alps, is a true winter wonderland. The small village is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, making it the perfect destination for a winter getaway.
Hotel Alpina sits about a 10min walk from the train station. The hotel is clean and the staff are helpful. More options for breakfast would have been nice but overall it was a great stay.
We arrived 2 days before ski season so had to venture to grindelwald where everything was also closed so best to check the weTger maps on the day and call.
During the winter months, Kandersteg transforms into a winter sports paradise. The area is home to a number of ski resorts, including the family-friendly Oeschinen and the more challenging Sunnbüel. The skiing in Kandersteg is fantastic, with well-groomed slopes and a variety of runs for all ability levels.
One of the best things about Kandersteg is its charming village center. The small town is filled with cozy restaurants and cafes, many of which serve traditional Swiss dishes. The local food and drink are a highlight of any visit to Kandersteg, and the friendly locals are always happy to recommend their favorite spots.
achei que havia reservado em interlaken, só quando cheguei vi que eram 45 KM, na vespera de natal e para nossa surpresa foi a melhor coisa que nos aconteceu, o hotel é ótimo e fica numa vila pequena, muito bonita, com muita neve e um lago incrivel muito próximo, adoramos a experiencia
El mejor trato que me he encontrado en un hotel sin duda, tanto el hombre de recepcion como la chica de cocina, un cielo de personas, para cualquier cosa les tienes y ya la cena que te ponen riquisima. el hotel super acogedor y de pelicula, volveria sin pensarlo

Il nous a proposé de mettre nos vélos au garage. Il nous a conseillé sur les questions que nous avions...
Die Unterkunft war so wie es schon beschrieben wurde. Es war sauber und alle Utensilien waren vorhanden sowie wlan funktionierten.
Das Frühstück war ausreichend von allen vorhanden. Preis und Leistung stimmen
Einfacher Check-in und Check-out, Freundlicher und guter Service, Grosse Auswahl beim Frühstück, sehr feines Essen, bequemes Bett und warme Decken, Zimmer mit Balkon, sehr sauber und viele Handtücher, tolle Lage-Alles tiptop :)
Sejour convenable dans un bon hôtel simple, mais confortable. Petit problème au niveau de l'insonorisation.

Albergo piacevole
Ottima colazione e letti grandi, terrazza rustica in legno al limite dell'agibile. In generale ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo soprattutto rispetto alle alternative.
Bien situé, le responsable a bien voulu accepter de nous changer de chambre, car nous souhaitions un balcon.
Dommage qu'on ne nous ait pas proposé la carte d'hôte qui donne quelques avantages, nous l'avons vu écrit trop tard.
Das Hotel ist sauber aber alles ist etwas alt und einfach. Die Rezeption war meistens leer und obwohl die Leute freundlich waren, man hätte schon etwas mehr "Service" erwarten... wir waren zum esten Mal in Kandersteg und ein bisschen mehr Orientierung wäre wünschenswert... naja, am Ende ist aber alles gut gewesen und wir haben 2 tolle Wandertage in Kandersteg gehabt!
