Alpinhotel Bort

除了交通不方便、風景還是很美。

The view was simply super.

Great sleep and view, cosy, welcoming staff and atmosphere. One stop with Grindelwald First cable car (Bort). Accessible by car. Had the room with separate private bathroom opposite the bedroom, would book it again.

The surroundings of the property make this a truly unique and memorable experience. The views, cows right on property, large play area for kids and the cable car that takes you up the mountain were a treat! The room was comfortable for a one-night stay only. No slippers, robes and not enough towels for a 4 person room. The breakfast that's included was poor - flies everywhere (likely due to the cows on property) so it's not a good feeling seeing the flies on the meats, cheeses, bread and other food items - lost our appetite quickly. There were flies everywhere so recommend they find some solution for this. For dinner we dined at their on-site restaurant and the food was mediocre for the price paid. Only one staff member who seemed overwhelmed. He had trouble conversing with us (English) and the table behind us (Korean but speaking English). Recommend this property for a unique experience but skip all meals and hopefully they fix the fly problem.

Given the location of the property there is only 2 modes of access ( the gondola and hiking). From google earth it looked to be car accessible (private roadway) and we assumed either a taxi or the gondola could take us up. Well the gondola shut down due to some issue and it was poring rain. The hotel said a taxi could take us but after calling multiple taxis they couldn’t, and we just had no way of getting to the property because the hike was out of the picture with our luggage so we missed 1/2 nights at the hotel. We paid for another property and slept off our anger and frustration. In the morning we checked into our room and found that the bathroom was separate from the actual room for us. This was annoying given you would have to walk across a public hallway to get to our room. Whatever we said. Upon entering our room it was fairly clean but there was smashed bugs on the wall and ceiling. The room was clean other than that. We went to eat dinner which tasted okay. We both ordered the European version of a rib eye but what we received seemed like pork. Very chewy and wouldn’t recommend. Carrots overcooked to mush and potatoes bland. Just after dinner as soon as I made it upstairs to my room and sat on the toilet with some sort of food reaction. Was very unpleasant. Overall if you are a tourist DONT stay here given the location and the inconvenience it gives you while exploring Grindelwald. There are way nicer and cheaper hotels on grinldwald that are better.

The place is really nice, its clean and the staffs are really friendly.
