Hotel & Restaurant Chartreuse, Osteria da Pasquale, Hünibach

Hotel Chartreuse (formerly known as the Italian Lifestyle Hotel) is a short walk from the Lake Thun waterfront. A small grocery store just across the street is very convenient. The building, patio and grounds are well-kept and neat. Annemarie cheerfully let us check-in early though we arrived just after noon. The room was clean and quiet, and the bedding delightful – with a down comforter on each half of the comfortable double bed. Dinner at Chartreuse was exquisite! Ates, the Hotel and Restaurant Coordinator, recommended the best wine we’ve ever had (which is saying something!), a red blend from Tuscany, to pair with the delicious food. He invited us into the cool, dark cantina stocked with Italian wines to retrieve the bottle. We had a delicious three-course dinner, including yummy, crusty bread, a fennel leaf salad, roast rack of lamb, sage butter ravioli stuffed with Italian sausage, and tiramisu dessert. Our servers, Elena and Lorena, were delightful and engaging. Ates kept our glasses full of the delicious wine throughout dinner. He even offered us (gratis) a glass of Passito Del Vecchio liquor afterwards. Clearly, it gives him joy to see to it that his customers have an unforgettable experience! In the morning, we enjoyed a fabulous buffet breakfast at Chartreuse, with Annemarie ensuring we had everything we wanted, even making eggs for us though the breakfast layout is serve-yourself. We will definitely be returning to Hotel Chartreuse and Osteria da Pasquale when we travel to Switzerland again in the future!

My wife and I stayed at the hotel & ate here on a Wednesday evening. Food was very good and we would eat here again. Service was very hospitable and accommodating since I have a gluten intolerance (need gluten-free). They were very helpful in identifying menu items to eat and had some very good options. Very nice evening on the patio and was perfect for a date night setting. I attached pictures and reviews of the food but overall we were very happy and will come back if we’re able to visit the Thun area again!
