Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Alpenblick offers guests stunning views of the mountains, sometimes even a glacier, right from their room windows. Its location proves convenient, with the First mountain cable car within walking distance and a bus stop just outside the property for easy access to the town. The included breakfast is generally appreciated, though some have found it basic; it features options like bread, cheeses and coffee, and is served with a picturesque mountain view. The hotel also provides practical amenities such as free parking and access to a kettle and microwave downstairs.

The breakfast included a generous selection. I saw breads and cheese. I also noticed cereals and hot drinks. The room was bigger than I thought it would be.

There were cars driving past the windows. It got a bit noisy late at night.
