Description: The Chalet Swiss Hotel is located in the pretty Unterseen area of Interlaken, a short and easy 5-minute walk from the West railway station. The hotel is extremely pretty, a typical Swiss chalet building, wooden with window boxes full of bright flowers. There is a lovely little garden to the front and an annex building to the back housing more rooms, a small and informal bar area, and, in the basement, a whirlpool and children's toy room.
Our room was in the annex - although not decorated in the latest fashions, it was cosy, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The room was split-level with a very large, comfortable bed upstairs and another single bed, seating area with a television, and small balcony downstairs. The bathroom was small but adequate with bath and shower. We needed to hire a travel cot - this was fairly expensive, so I would recommend that if you need one, bring it along. There were no tea or coffeemaking facilities in the room, neither was there a fridge or hair dryer. We stayed on a half-board basis - breakfasts are continental style, a bit sparse, and dinners were three or four courses with basic but substantial food. The hotel had a large toy room in the basement filled with all kinds of toys for boys and girls of all ages as well as a large table football game. The staff in the hotel were efficient, friendly, and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and I would not hesitate to book it again.
