Unieke ervaring, waar rust en genieten van de natuur voorop staan. Geweldig uitzicht. Ook de weg ernaartoe is een avontuur. De weg is wat smal, maar dat mag de pret niet drukken. Je komt op een gegeven moment een bord tegen dat aangeeft dat er geen auto's mogen rijden. Twee kleine sprieten moet je even vastknopen aan het hek zodat je door kunt rijden.
Het eten van het restaurant is goed, maar overdreven duur. 48 euro voor een schnitzel, bijvoorbeeld.
Dat had wel wat goedkoper gemogen.

Tolles Hotel mit super Personal, waren am ersten Wochenende nach Eröffnung mit komplett neuem Personal-Team da und Personal war super freundlich, aufgestellt und hat versucht zu helfen wo sie konnten. Restaurant sehr gemütlich.
Abhänigkeit der Gondelbahn Öffnungszeiten, Kommunikation kann noch leicht verbessert werden

What an amazing location! You are really up in the hills, makes you feel like you're Heidi or the family von trapp from the Sound of Music. Rooms are quite small but well laid out. Loved the outside hot-tubs heated by wood fires!
Dinner was very disappointing, staff were a bit brusque and the food was poor. Had to send meat back because it was over-cooked and the second try arrived in the same state. Spoiled the evening for us, and it wasn't cheap. Although we mentioned our disappointment to the restaurant staff and then mentioned it again at check-out, nothing was offered to compensate us. pretty poor customer service.

Breakfast was very good .
Accommodation were clean and beautifully designed.
Staff were very helpful.
Reviews didn’t mention that the drive up at night is a long drive on a narrow alpine road . We arrived approximately at 9 pm and the front door to the reception was locked and not lit up . There should be an intercom and lighting at the front entrance for guests arriving late.

Sauna was fantastic. Staff were excellent (helpful and friendly). Location on hill was gorgeous.
Need to plan for location issues. Location is somewhat chairlift dependent. Carpet was beat. Rooms should have frig. Too many flies.

Great location, we were right in the middle of the pastures. Having a dog was a little bit complicated but we were able to do all the trails we wanted to do.....an we got back the hot tubes and sauna!!!!!!!
Sooo great...
Everybody on the staff! They come from all horizons and they do there best. Je suis vaudois/bernois, and did there best and it was great!
Outdoor spa great, incredible sights and sounds at the end of the day!
Nothing...important but as always in Switzerland prices, I understand higher prices but still...everything is pretty expensive compared to other countries. If it goes into the pockets of the the staff (supervisors included) not a problem...at all levels were well treated.

The Alpine Lodge is an amazing place on the slopes of the Rinderberg. We went in summer and we were directed towards some incredible walks bringing us to idyllic places such as the top of the Rinderberg at 2078m. Upon return of these walks a Wonderfull wellness was waiting for us. Hassan was very helpful and you could ask him anything without hesitation. Breakfast and dinner were very good, even if you are a vegan. The chef prepares very nice vegan and regular salat plates with fresh herbs from there garden!! The ladies at the front desk made us feel comfortable and at home from the moment we walked in the door. All the superior rooms have a balcony overlooking the Gstaad valley and mountains. We definitely will come back and we recommend this place to everyone...Love Ine en Ellen❤️
eughhhh....🤔 Nope!😜

Amazing and cozy lodge in the middle of the Rindenberg mountain and the start for great kicking trails. Incredible views and sunny terrace with a great restaurant and breakfasts. Easy to arrive and hard to leave
All good

This hotel is located right next to the mid-way cable car station up to Rinderberg, above the town of Zweisimmen. As such you have amazing views of the surrounding peaks, and only the noise of the birds, crickets and cowbells. The hotel itself has a pleasing wooden chalet-style exterior, and a very minimalist interior that was still very pleasing. The restaurant is a highlight, with all of the food we ordered very well cooked and presented, and very tasty. The breakfast selection was relatively simple, but with plenty of everything. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The hotel also has a small outdoor sauna and a wood fire-heated hot tub.
The hotel WiFi didn't cover our room on the top floor very well. Also, the sauna is only open from 3pm in the afternoon, and is set to a very low temperature (60 degrees) but obviously these are only very minor issues!

The location is really great. The room is nice with a stunning view of mountains and the starry sky!
The bed mattress is too soft. I suffered a bit back pain the day after.

Location, hotpot with robes and slippers, nice terrace, free parking
Parts of carpet around hotel were stained, no full length mirror in rooms. Reservation on booking.com described “additional bathroom” but this was false.
