My familly spent two nights in this very expensive hotel. There were several shortcomings: the cumbersome system for putting the room-key onto a complicated wall-board at the exit of the hotel (this system was conceived because in the reception often there is nobody). The room was very small and dark. Heating not performing well inside the rooms. Old and used... More

My grandchild complained during the last month about this hotel which was a hard experience to remember. Actually he got a cold, as he explained that the heating in the rooms (central heating, therefore commanded by the landlord) was scarce and working for a limited time every day. There was no facility to warm up the wet ski-trousers and ski-gloves... More

I arrived in Murren on the cable car and found my entire team staying at the Alpenruh and I found myself walking to the other end of town (with all my gear) and not a very happy camper....as it is 5minutes accross town....a delightful town I might add....full of pleasant locals who greet you as they walk past....living in Lausanne,...

Excellent alpine location in car-free Murren. The breathtaking mountain views look surreal. The Hotel Edelweiss is an excellent choice for skiers and non-skiers alike. Located just steps from the mountain rain station that leads to the cable-car ( hat leads to the valley below), the hotel is convenient, well-appointed, and family-run. Hotel stays include breakfast. There is dining on the... More

Do not forget in Swiss resorts you must add quite a tax to the daily bill. The price of this small pension is of almost 300 Franks for one night for a double room. This was not good value for my money. Really the walkable surface was 11 square meters (without the imposant cupboard) and with a small table of... More

The room had a balcony with stunning views of the valley and mountains. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. A nice breakfast was provided. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. He even let us borrow his walking sticks. The location was perfect. The only negative is that the wi-fi in our room wasn't reliable. Most of... More

I'm not sure why anyone stays anywhere else unless Edelweiss is sold out. This hotel has the absolutely best view in all of Murren. Perched right on the cliff side there is nothing that obstructs the view of the mountains from your balcony. On a clear night be sure to go outside in the middle of the night for the... More

As other reviewers have rightly mentioned, viewing this hotel from the outside, the Edelweiss is perhaps not the most charming and inviting of edifices, but its interiors are very attractively designed with well appointed rooms, and with the mountain facing rooms offering truly stunning views of the iconic Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. The superior rooms in the new annex are... More

My boyfriend and I booked this hotel for a last minute weekend getaway to the Berner Oberland while we were in Zurich, and we couldn't have been happier. Murren was perfect, and we loved Hotel Edelweiss. It's true the facade might not be awe inspiring, but the view off the lobby balcony, terrace and the mountain view rooms definitely are.... More

My husband and I booked 4 nights in a Superior South-facing room at the Edelweiss in mid-September. My only regret is that we didn't book a full week. We'd been to Murren previously at this time of year, and had enjoyed warm sunshine and blue skies, with crystal-clear views of the towering snow-capped trio of Monch, Eiger and Jungfrau. We... More
