- E1810WTmikeeAugust 6, 2025 at 3:56 PM5 star all the wayEverything excellent.i will just say a few minor inconveniences. No grip handle in shower or rail to pool,essential for older guests. Hotel of this standard should have omelette station at breakfast,the sausages are for germans not Brits.Bacon is too limp.i prefer crispy bacon. Being picky i know but these changes would make for perfectionMore
- NielioanMay 16, 2024 at 1:41 PMcool chalet du lacwe were billeted in one of the rooms at the second floor. coming from geneva, it took us four hours to reach this hotel via a taxi from the train station. our room was gorgeous albeit the wooden tiles squeaked as we walked around. there was a terrace that could give you a lakeview of brienz that reflected the ice-capped mountains surrounding our hotel. this part of the town was absolutely breath-taking. the bathroom was equipped with a heater that kept the whole area warm. although it looked kinda old, the floor and wall tiles were kept clean and the whole room fragrant. there was breakfast at the ground floor that went with the room rate. the hotel staff was very friendly and fun to talk to.More
- smackinlayMay 10, 2024 at 3:54 AMAmazing hotel and foodFound this place by accident and stayed one night. Beautiful view over the lake. Restaurant serves amazing food and staff couldn’t be more helpful. Lots of walking trails around the lake . Very quiet and peaceful place. The hotel provide free bus passes to get into Interlaken.More
- YuvanuMay 15, 2023 at 6:37 PMSimply romanticMesmerising views of the lake and mountains from the balcony. Very cozy place. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean, comfortable and spacious with fresh food and bottled water. The breakfast also had a good variety.More
- pikay23October 11, 2022 at 3:25 PMPriceless view!!!We chose this hotel as our 2nd base after Lauterbrunnen simply because of the wonderful and very peaceful surroundings. We only booked the budget room but they upgraded us to Family room with nice view of the Iseltwald castle and a balcony overlooking the mountain. The guy at the reception was very accommodating, even offered his help in bringing our luggages to our room at the 3rd floor (no elevator, btw) as this is a traditional chalet. The breakfast selection is ok, enough to give you fuel to start the day. Unfortunately their restaurant was closed for the whole duration of our stay, we were really looking forward to have our dinner there, too bad. If you have money to spare, I suggest to book their chalets with balconies facing the lake, the view is to die for.More
- MickeyR162May 22, 2022 at 6:24 PMFantastic situation and amazing service3rd time here but not the last and now with friends, such an amazing situation/view just by the lake, a hotel with great food and drinks, but the most incredible is the friendly and positive staff, we were again amazed ! Well done and keep up the good workMore
- IrkosoadJuly 13, 2021 at 7:06 PMThe best food in SwitzerlandWe found this place on our hiking trail. Excellent food, friendly stuff, amazing picturesque view from the window. The place is very authentic with nice design and lighting. Clean and neat. The best soup and ragout we've ever tried!!More

- 344blankasJune 18, 2020 at 11:40 AMSpotless, wonderful experienceHotel Chalet Du Lac was a truly wonderful experience with the stunning lake views, the extremely hospitable staff and the great meals. The restaurant has a great menu of mainly fish meals and their signature fish stew is truly remarkable. The superior single room was spacious enough for one person and the balcony with the view of the lake was the perfect hangout spot for a late evening glass of wine.More
- Maddison65September 2, 2019 at 2:56 PMFabulous LocationWe stayed here just the two nights to sample a little bit of Switzerland and loved it! We have to say we were lucky with the weather throughout our stay was amazing: blue skies, mid to high 20’s temperature wise and the lake looked sublime. It’s a stunning location. The hotel, apart from a small very quiet road, is right on the lake looking directly at the beautiful and famous Seeburg house and, by its name is obviously a chalet design. This adds to the Swiss experience though is perhaps its only drawback with the wooden interior retaining its heat through the night in spite of leaving doors and windows open so we didn’t have the best sleep. (I’m guessing this is a plus when it’s not so warm.) Our lake view double room with balcony was, otherwise, lovely: two adjacent single beds, a separate small sofa, plenty of storage space while the shower in the separate bathroom was very powerful. The balcony also had a table and two chairs to enjoy the amazing view. The hotel has its own restaurant with terrace area out front (below our room) which was popular for both drinks and dinner. We ate their one night and really enjoyed the local fish, the good choice of local wine and the attentive service. However, we had a drink a little earlier in the afternoon when it was busier and the drinks’ waiter was a bit frantic. Breakfast options were limited to traditional cold buffet options but were fine. Service at the front desk was also friendly and helpful though it was difficult to track someone down at times. Although about 10km from Interlaken and the station, it’s relatively easy to get around without a car: there is an hourly free (stopping) public bus to Interlaken Ost station while there are several daily ferry services to take you around the lake (which do come at a price) and of course taxis (at a greater price). The ferry stop is about 5 mins walk away. Iseltwald is a beautiful village with a little supermarket and a handful of other restaurants/drinking venues. WiFi quality was good throughout the hotel, extending partly to the terrace. Overall, a fabulous little piece of Switzerland and a great place to spend a few days.More
- 788manifJune 30, 2019 at 5:20 PMFantastic !We stayed there for only one night and I wish we had stayed much longer . Beautiful and cozy place with great views . The staff were very friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast also had a good variety. Free parking is available in the back of the hotel. Overall , it was a great stay . We’d recommend checking out the Interlaken town and get on the cable car (28 CHF with the hotel’s discount/ person) and enjoy the great views of jungfrau mountains . We’d go back there again in a heart beat !More
- SwenijaApril 10, 2019 at 6:13 PMA hidden gem....If you want Swissness pure, see the falls, the lake and eat the best fish- go there! This is a Swiss chalet, with few but cosy rooms- choose the lake view- and then enjoy! Extremely kind and friendly staff! They are wonderful of help! This is a place where you find peace and delicious food! Tourism is there- but you feel the Swiss spirit!More
- I1618MTkarenmSeptember 25, 2018 at 9:05 AMBeautiful place to stayWe had had long day riding our motorbikes and as we ride down and hit the views of the lake it was a beautiful sight. Wow what an amazing place to stay, the views of the lake where stunning from our bedroom and we also had our own little balcony with table and chairs, the room very very spacious with fresh fruit and bottled water with a very large bed. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and had the menu in English, very helpful waitress who helped us to chose a lovely wine. The breakfast the following morning was very tasty and a great choice. This was our favourite hotel of the 13 we stayed in on our motorbike tour and would love to visit again.More
- JainaK3June 5, 2018 at 7:59 AMMind blowing AmazingThis hotel is perfectly placed amongst nature.. the most beautiful location in entire Switzerland. For ppl who love being in the nature's lap ! The service is great.. the rooms are comfortable and clean.. the staff is sweet and helpful ... There are buses available on 4 mins walk from the hotel... Interlaken is more commercialised and on the contrary u will hardly see ppl around in Iseltwald ! Having said that it's absolutely safe .... A must for ppl who are visiting Switzerland ...More
- shenhargJune 28, 2017 at 8:19 AMParadiseIt is an amazing hotel. It is near the amazing lake and has a great view. A great room with view to the lake. Food was the best breakfast and dinner. We enjoyed our stay a lot in the hotel and in the area. Fully recommendedMore
- pwcmontanaJune 25, 2017 at 3:49 PMLast minute decisionWe were driving towards Interlaken and it was late so I consulted TripAdvisor about hotels nearby and found Chateau du Lac listed. Drove to the hotel and secured a room for the night. The receptionist was very charming and welcoming. Even though it was late and she was just about to leave, she took the time to explain about the area, some attractions, and hotel. She spoke 7 different languages, so communication is not a problem. The room was very nice with a view to die for. We overlooked the lake and the castle just across the bay. The room itself was very clean, well maintained and stocked with all the essentials. With the windows opened, it was very comfortable. Parking is not a problem at the hotel. There are ample spots without additional charge. The breakfast buffet was first rate. Plenty of meats, cheeses, cereals, breads, and other goodies. Enough to send you on your way with a full stomach. Dinner at the hotel was very good. The menu had English subtitles so it was easy for us to understand. There was a good selection of wines and beers. Service was excellent. Eating while watching the sun set was especially enjoyable. After a long day of driving and sightseeing, Chateau du Lac was a splendid way to end the day.More
