8 / 10Excellent·Feb 2026
This is a very nice guest house, very simple set up, nothing fancy but the best value for the money. Place is clean, there is a restaurant next door and close to cablecar. Dinner was ok as well . Staff is very nice and friendly
It is at the entrance in Engelberg which maxes it a but difficult to reach with small children in case no car.
