Hotel Eiger

Booked for one night and the service was remarkable from start till finish. Welcoming, professional and kind staff, nice, big, and clean room (except for the overhead furniture in the bathroom. The spa area (limited to 10 persons) is very nice with a sauna, hammam, and a relaxing area. Varied and tasty breakfast in a cozy and familiar setting. Room rate includes mini bar items, coffee, and tea access to fitness and spa...pleaseant surprise. Ideally located in the city center with everything you need just a walk away

Stayed here for 12 nights at the end of August, beginning of September. We were on a package with Inghams. We had originally booked for 14 nights but EasyJet cancelled our flights and we had to settle for a 12 night stay. Throughout our stay we found all the staff to be friendly and helpful. As it was during the Covid 19pandemic the hotel had taken measurs to ensure our stay was as trouble free as could be. Our room was 408 "Fiescherhorn" on the 4th Floor. I think it is described as a Lifestyle Chic room and was very comfortable. There was no balcony but two large windows looking out of the side of the hotel. There was a sitting area with a sofa and chair and table. There was lots of storage space. The bathroom had bath with shower, wc and sink. Soap, shampoo and shower gel was provided. There was a TV, safe, coffee machine and mini bar in the room. A nice touch was they filled the mini bar with soft drinks and beer which was complimentary. There was also crisps and a small chocolate bar. WiFi in the hotel was free and a good speed. Breakfast is served in the breakfast room on the 1st Floor. The breakfast is very good considering the present circumstances. You can help yourself to fruit juices, cereals and breads. There are fruit salads served in a glass with cling film on the top, also plates of cheeses and meats with cling film. The staff will cook eggs and bacon and various omelettes. They also do porridge and make coffee. You can make your own tea. Boiled and scrambled eggs were also available. Evening meals are served in Barrys Restaurant on the 1st Floor. This is open to non Residents except for Monday and Tuesday evening when it is residents only. It is very popular especially at weekends. Residents are offered a set three course meal. We were disappointed initially as J does not eat meat and the main course was meat, apart from 2 nights when we had fish,. You can eat off the a la carte menu but again was heavily meat biased. The saving grace was the Napf, this is a selection of food which the kitchen stir fry for you. The food includes fish, tofu and pulses as well as vegetables. The food generally was of a good standard and we enjoyed our meals here especially as there was a nice atmosphere. As a resident you also get access to the Sports Centre where there is a swimming pool. There are saunas etc. at the hotel but we didn't use them. You can get free tea and cake at the Eiger+ cafe next to the Sports Centre between 3pm and 5pm daily. The hotel is in a great location being a short walk from the bus station, railway station and the First cable car. We bought the Corona Pass whilst we were there and used the efficient transport system a lot. The pass also includes the Jungfraujochbahn which is not included in some of the travel passes. A very enjoyable holiday and stay and would recommend the hotel.
