Victoria - Alpine Boutique Hotel & Fine Dining

It was a nice choice for our Switzerlanding last summer. Good rate for the type of tour we wanted to do. Very quiet and has nice restaurant options within 1-5min walking distance. We had nice mountain view, and the room was clean and pretty. The wifi was also working perfectly.

This is a great hotel. Room is well designed and modern with some of the touches you expect from a more high end hotel. The hotel is in a great location with easy access (1 short block) to the train and a few blocks to the mountain gondola. The owners are quite helpful and friendly. AND, the restaurant is excellent. I'd love to return again for a longer stay.

We visited the Hotel Victoria in early January. The hotel is centrally located in Meiringen near the bus and railway stations and is an easy 10-minute walk to the ski lift. This modern hotel is clean and comfortable with all the amenities one could possibly need. Simon and Franziska (the owners) are welcoming and helpful, as are their staff. The breakfast buffet is excellent with both hot and cold food served. There is a very good dinner menu which has some interesting Asian-themed dishes. The hotel also offers complimentary access to the Meiringen Fitness and Wellness Centre which is a short walk from the property. Overall, a great place to stay and highly recommended for excellent, Swiss hospitality.

Simply superb! A lovely hotel in the heart of Meiringen. Clean and comfortable rooms with every amenity you may need. Incredibly friendly and helpful proprietors who provide a warm and welcome respite from a day of outdoor activity and wonderful food, artful and delicious options on a nightly basis. Looking forward to coming back on our next visit to Meiringen!

A truly wonderful experience. The hotel was very comfortable and stylish. I slept very well and enjoyed the nice touches, such as the fruit in the room and the cake in the afternoon. Dinner in the restaurant was so good that we decided to dine there for both the evenings! The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was excellent for hiking adventures in the mountains. I highly recommend and would not hesitate to return.

I stayed here for 5 nights in August. I was visiting with a friend and were here for a wedding we were attending in Brienz. We had a fantastic stay and literally did not have one complaint. My personal favorite was the breakfast… it is fantastic. They have an incredible variety, plus allow you to order eggs, bacon, pancakes, etc from the kitchen. Their coffee machine makes the best cappuccino. I can’t sing high enough praises for the breakfast!! The room was clean and modern with space for storing items, a couch and a desk. The location was perfect for utilizing the train and shopping in the downtown district. The staff was very professional. Every request we had was met with knowledge and help. Simon personally asked us how our stay was several times, and the other staff were very friendly. Would definitely stay here again! - Scott

My friend and I stayed in this hotel for 5 nights in August. It is extremely well-located, walkable from the train station, right in the centre of the (admittedly small) town and very comfortable. You get breakfast included in the room rate which consisted of a very good cold buffet selection, juices, coffee, etc and then a few small hot items you could order (like eggs, bacon, pancakes) which were also included. We also ate in the restaurant twice, and both times the food was excellent. We had a wonderful view onto the mountains. Simon was very friendly and checked us in and out, and also came over to ask how the food was the nights we ate in the restaurant. All of the servers in the restaurant and at breakfast were friendly and enthusiastic. A few things kept if from being a 5 star review. As a few others have mentioned, our room was very warm. We were there in the middle of summer but it was actually unusually cold. Each morning we left our windows open (as they had been open all night to cool the room) and every day when we came back from hiking (sometimes very late) they would be closed and it would take a long time to cool down again. There was also something weird with the TV where occasionally a mysterious german voice would emanate from the TV for a few seconds! We never figured it out, it was so weird though. And perhaps the worst and most unprofessional experience we had was asking for a restaurant recommendation from Franziska who happened to be sitting on the desk. She literally could not offer a recommendation outside of the hotel's own restaurant. When pushed she halfheartedly suggested the restaurant of the nearest other hotel, her explanation being "I don't really eat out in Meiringen and I just love our restaurant." Look, I understand that the chef is your husband and it's a good restaurant but this is frankly amateur hour level behaviour. This is an expensive, upscale hotel. I expect the host to at least be able to rattle off 2 or 3 recommended places to eat outside of their own. Luckily, we later went to the tourist information center who gave us some wonderful restaurant recommendations, including where we could get fondue (which Franziska claimed was impossible. Not so!) So all in all a good experience but some strangely unprofessional behaviour from one of the owners.

We had a very nice stay here with some friends over the weekend. The rooms where nice, although our room on the 3rd floor was somewhat warm. The food in the restaurant in the evening was excellent in every aspect. We did some very nice excursions and the Chef had some usefult tips on where to go. @Chef: We went up to the 'Gletscherschlucht and took the Postbus from schwendi, as it was quite a steep walk up to Rosenlaui - the gorge was stunning, as where the views. Thanks to the hotel

This was the most thoughtful and welcoming hotel I have ever been to. The owner is available and checks in with his guests to ensure they have everything they need. I genuinely believe everyone who works there wants to make sure you have the best experience. The restaurant was phenomenal I had dinner and breakfast. Breakfast was free and by far better than any that I paid for at other hotels on this trip. I rented a car and there was parking available for a very small fee. I didn’t feel the car was necessary as there was lots to do in walking distance. The town is lovely, nice and small for a relaxing and adventure filled trip. STAY HERE you will not be disappointed.
