We’ll be in Switzerland thing coming May. Our first home base is Wengen. I would like to know if there are any hotels with less uphill walks to get there from the station.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Maria Bonifacio

Hi Maria Bonifacio,
Although Wengen is located at a high altitude, this mountain village is fairly small and flat and there are plenty of accommodation near the train station which requires no uphill walking.

And, when you arrive at the train station, there’s a board of phones that let you call hotels to arrange a pickup from the station to the hotel. When I was last there, I contacted the hotel via the web IIRC and arranged pickup ahead of time. For me, that was the Wengener Hoff hotel. It was a little further away from the train station so that was very helpful. I’m guessing that hotels close to the station don’t provide such service, but check details at the website for any hotel you are interested in.
We stayed at the Maya Caprice Boutique Hotel. Just about 35-40 meters past the train station. A very easy walk and a great location with terrific views. I know others have their favorites in that same area. I don’t think you can go wrong with any of those there right around the station.
The thread ‘Any hotels in Wengen with less uphill walks?’ is closed to new replies.
