Hotel Waldegg

TThe Waldegg is an exceptional place due to its rare family atmosphere. We went with our two children and were really quite impressed they had made friends with other children (and with members of the staff) before we left. The rooms have been meticulously maintained and carefully cleaned. The spa facilities are wonderful and focus on the children in a way I’ve never seen before. The only reason I don't give the hotel 5 stars is because of the slow service in the various food-serving venues in the facility. This is common in Switzerland, but here service was slow even for the Swiss. For example, in the breakfast dining area coffee is served only by the waitstaff, and on our second day there, I waited through the entire meal to be acknowledged and offered coffee. In the end it did not much reduce our overall enjoyment, but I feel that a 5-star rating should be nearly perfect. I gave the location a 4 rather than a 5 because the hotel is located on a hill such that it is not walking distance from the quaint downtown dining establishments, and there is no shuttle service after 5pm. In summer, it would be just 10-15 min, but in winter it is dark, icy and narrow in places so we drove to dinner when we ate downtown. In summary, it was a very rewarding experience and if we get the chance we will certainly go back to the Waldegg. positive experience and if we get a chance we will certainly go back.

We stayed at the Waldegg Hotel for 5 days between Christmas and New Years. It was a great experience. The room was spacious for the four of us (2 adults and 2 children) and we had a beautiful view of the mountains. The swimming pool and sauna facilities were a great addition to the hotel and were much appreciated after a day out in the cold weather. Very clean and well maintained! The restaurant staff was helpful, but given the busy season they were not able to handle the volume of business in the evenings. That being said, the quality of the food was excellent and the breakfast buffet was one of the best I've experienced in a ski hotel. Given the location was above the town, it was a bit tricky getting down to the village given icy roads and parking seemed to be a challenge but we always managed to find a solution.
