Beatenberg chalets

A really well equipped chalet in a brilliant location with an almost 180 degree panoramic view. Our only comment is that for a property capable of accommodating up to 4 adults, we were surprised that it was not provided with a washing machine. A TV would have also been welcome

Joli petit chalet avec une très belle vue sur le lac de Brienz.. Les deux salles de douche sont petites et pas très pratiques pour les gens grands mais ça va pour quelques jours. Sinon le chalet est bien équipé et avec une grande terrasse. Le quartier est très calme et agréable. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour.

A perfect week in the mountains. The property is ideally located a few minutes walk from Wilderswil railway station, through which all trains up into the mountains around the Jungfrau stop: Interlaken Ost is a mere 4 minutes by train (Post Bus also takes you there - 2 stops both around 200 metres from the house), and Grindelwald/Lautebrunnen are only 30 mins by train. The weather in our week was duff(!), but we decided to venture out every day anyway as we have 2 young children (5 and 1 years old). Getting the Bernese Oberland pass meant that we started every day with a walk down to Wilderswil station before heading somewhere to ride a cable car or mountain railway. House is lovely and cosy - well-stocked kitchen and lovely downstairs spa room (sauna and jet bath!) - and was a great place to come back to after exploring the alps. Lovely evening views up to the Jungfrau/Mönch and down to Harder Kulm/down Brienzersee. In addition, the owners Cindy and Pascal are lovely and will help wherever they can with your plans. Can't wait to go back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only feedback I have for the owners is the information booklet and the operating manuals were all in German. For guests like us who don't read/understand German need help in translating the menus, the buttons and dials in the appliances - so translated manuals (in English) would be very helpful. Overall a great stay at Chalet Hinkelstein.
