Balcony View of Brienzersee
We had a two day visit with a large balcony view of the lake. I absolutely loved the room with the view, the wife and had lunch and dinner on the balcony. The showers, ughhh the best shower I’ve had so far at any hotels I’ve stayed in, either in the states or out of the country. Little small to move around in but the giant rain shower head melts away and complains. Hotel staff was great and friendly. Awesome breakfast but I didn’t get the chance to try the dinner. Nice area to walk around in and watch the boat come and go. We really wanted to take advantage of the private lake access for swimming but ran out of time. Over all definitely worth the spend!

I’m really impressed by this family run business in Iseltwald. This was the best hotel I found in this beautiful little village. The refund and change policy is very flexible which I appreciated because I did end up needing to change the date of my visit. The room was newly renovated. We were given the balcony room right next to the hotel sign. It had a breath taking view of the lake and the mountain. Breakfast was included which was so helpful since there aren’t many options around. And the food selection was so great. We had a wonderful breakfast there and ready to take on our journey. The only issue was during check in, I was asked if I’m from Switzerland. When I explained I live in the US, the staff wanted to see proof of my residency. I had to show my US ID other than my passport to check in eventually. This has never happened in other hotels. Maybe it was just miscommunication in due to different languages. I find it a little strange as there must be many foreign visitors coming here. All in all I liked my stay here and would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to visit Iseltwald.

We absolutely loved our stay. I had visited Iseltwald in college and always said I’d return to stay at one of the hotels. Could not have had a better time with the staff of the Strandhotel taking such good care of us!

Simple and yet amazing
They stay overall was amazing due the amazing views and honeymoon emotions. The hotel is a 3 star hotel so for some Things maybe I expected too much as coffee and tea in the room. Breakfast is simple continental and I was surprised on Sunday I was told I could only take what I took the day before and nothing from the additional Sunday brunch unless I paid additional fee. The kitchen is good, we had a good lunch with good food well prepared. The room was a renovated one, clean and comfortable as we can expect from a 3 star hotel. I choose this hotel specifically as it was in the Netflix Korean drama “ Crash landing on you” as honeymoon surprise for my wife. Overall I think it was more expensive that I usually pay for a hotel even with 4 stars but than again, Switzerland is expensive anyway. The young woman in the reception was very friendly and supportive.

Great view, submontane location
Location is great, in a small village with a super view on lake, mountains etc. Hotel is ok although not modern, room rather small but clean and functional. What we really didn't like is the unfriendly staff, especially in the restaurant but also at the reception. Some people really don't know how to treat customers, amazing. The foreign staff, although not always with great conduct of the German language, is at least friendly and tries to make you feel welcome, but the Swiss staff is cold, distant, sometimes rude, under pressure, overstrained, or at least gives this impression. Some seem to have chosen the wrong job, they should rather work on something that makes them happy...
