Eiger Lodge Chic is a contemporary lodge-style hotel on Grundstrasse in Grindelwald, facing the north face of the Eiger and close to the slopes. It offers stylish, modern rooms, many with views of the mountain, at prices that are good value for the village, and it has earned excellent guest ratings for its location and breakfast. In winter, its position gives ski-in ski-out access, and year-round it is within walking distance of Grindelwald station and the Grindelwald Terminal, the base for the Eiger Express gondola to Jungfraujoch and the Männlichen gondola. It suits active travellers, skiers and families who want to spend their days in the mountains rather than in Interlaken.
Location
Grindelwald is a forty-minute train ride from Interlaken Ost, and the lodge's position on Grundstrasse puts it close to the lower part of the village, the Grindelwald Terminal and the start of several walks and ski runs. The village centre, with shops and restaurants, is a short walk uphill, and the gondola to First and its Cliff Walk is reached by a pleasant stroll or the local bus.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms are designed in a modern alpine style, with wood, clean lines and comfortable beds, and categories range from compact doubles to larger rooms with balconies and views. Breakfast is served each morning and regularly praised by guests. There is a sister property next door with more budget-friendly rooms, which can be useful for groups and families travelling on different budgets.
Who it suits and what to know: skiers, hikers and families who want a modern base close to the lifts, and couples who prefer a mountain village to a lakeside town. Ask for an Eiger-view room. Evenings in Grindelwald are quieter than in Interlaken, but the village has a good choice of restaurants. Book early for the ski season and summer holidays, when Grindelwald fills up.
