Independent Report
restaurantThe hotel restaurant is just off the lobby. It is in slightly more rustic style than the lobby with solid old furniture. Huge windows give the room a lovely airy feel.
roomsThe rooms vary considerably in size from small to large. The also vary somewhat in condition, some being really quite old fashioned, whilst other have more modern furniture and have recently been decorated. Likewise the bathrooms are from fair to good condition. All rooms benefit from the facilities and comforts one would expect of a simple 03 star however.
locationThis hotel is located directly opposite the entrance to Engelberg's little railway station.
generalThis hotel was obviously once of a very high quality and has been let go to seed a little over the years. Nonetheless its first class location and elegant charm go a long way, and the property comes highly recommended for groups and individual travellers on a budget who value character and style.

lobbyThe lobby is large and imposing with elegant pillars and decorative coving to the ceiling, though, like the exterior of the hotel, it could do with some renovation. There is plentiful seating and a pool table.
exteriorObviously once a very grand building, the hotel is now showing its age rather. The building is, like many of the hotels in Engelberg, in traditional Swiss/British style, with ornate plaster work and large sash windows.
