Historic Hotel Falken

這個真的好喜歡😍

Hotel Falken The employed staff were wonderful, but we probably won’t go again. We had booked a south facing superior room with a balcony. The actual room was south facing with an amazing view, but the balcony was east facing and too small to use. Every evening on our return there were dead flies around a window – possibly due to nearby cows. We think the staff helpfully sprayed the flies daily – but why did they not get vacuumed up daily? A bigger problem was the never-ending creaky floors. We think due to the 1890s parquet flooring. Any movement around a bedroom during the night was a noisy nightmare for those below and around. We had a family above us with a baby for three nights who needed attention in the small hours. After the first night we raised the matter with the management and there was a little improvement as the family above tried very hard to be less noisy. We described the hotel as being shabby genteel – rather fitting for a previous reviewer calling the hotel Fawlty Towers. A plus for us was no television anywhere in sight. The food at breakfast and dinner was great and well presented – thank you. But suddenly on Saturday morning we found there was no dinner in the hotel that night or on the Sunday for which we had paid. (To be fair we were offered and accepted dinners at their very nice modern restaurant at the other end of Wengen – highly recommended.) On our initial arrival at Hotel Falken we were invited to sit in the lounge whilst the manager went to get us a welcome drink. How pleasant. Then she came and gave us a verbal list of meal-times, where and where not to put the key etc, etc, etc. Too much to take in after a 15-hour journey and could so easily have been in written form. This lady did not, at least to us, have a welcoming smile and was devoid of warmth. It was good to back in Wengen again.

Perfectly lovely! Historic rooms, dream-like view of the alps, friendly staff, great breakfasts with fresh warm bread, tasty cheeses, delicious yogurts. Very clean & well appointed room , antiquated but very safe room keys & locks, fluffy bed comforters and did I mention the view? In a word, the Hotel Falken is Idyllic in every way. We highly recommend the Hotel Falken but would caution that it is a slightly steep but invigorating path up to this eyrie.

I have been on the road now for 10 days. This is the finest hotel I have stayed at. Front desk gentleman meet our every need. Food was top notch and very tasty. Mountain View’s are awesome. I would stay here again and again!

Quaint and charming hotel. Restaurant was closed which would have been nice after a day of hiking.
