We enjoyed every thing about our stay at Rinderberg Lodge. The train to Zweisimmen had beautiful views. It was fun to ride the gondola up to the hotel. The hotel itself is beautiful—the perfect mix of modern and mountain, wood and concrete. We were offered lemon water and prosecco upon arrival as the first guests of the summer season. The staff were wonderful from arrival onward. The facilities are spotless. The views are gorgeous. We didn’t make use of the sauna because it was very hot the afternoon we arrived, so can’t comment on that. However, the garden outside the restaurant deck is a beautiful place to sit and explore. Since we had been traveling with backpacks we were mostly interested in a respite and relaxation rather than adventure and hiking, but the opportunities are here. I enjoyed hanging out with some cows (love the cowbells) on the other side of the fence. Our dinners were delicious. The chef adapted a dinner dish to be dairy-free and gluten-free for me. GF and DF together has been difficult in Switzerland, but here it was easy (limited but good choices). At breakfast there were excellent packaged gluten-free rolls, fruit, fresh bread, sliced meats, and pastries. I’m going to look for the GF bread in stores it was that good. I had sent a note to the hotel about my food intolerances in advance. There is oat milk alternative here. I would 100% stay here again. I wish we had another night!

Two VERY minor things that could be improved on: yes, like other reviews stated there were flies. They were a bit annoying but didn’t detract from our experience. Second, the room could use some hooks in the bathroom for wet towels. There was nowhere to hang them. These things would not keep me away.

Great location with very nice spa, good restaurant and good value (in my case). Rooms are very nice and cozy. Spa was very relaxing (not busy). Great views.

Breakfast buffet was already a bit scarce even though I was not that late. The value was very good for me depending on the booking time and that it was not fully occupied but i think In the winter it might be a different story. The road to the place could have a small sign explicitly stating that Hotel guests are allowed to use the private road through the cow fields.

EVERYTHING IS JUST AMAZING. The photos you see here can’t explain to you how beautiful this place is. Just book it you will not regret it. It’s mentioned that the check in time is super early but the lady left the keys hidden so we could check in at any time (we arrived at 1 am). There’s only one thing: at night, you have the road blocked by an electric fence, we stopped there in the middle of the night, no light at all, trying to figure how to pass this electric fence. It’s easier than it seems, you just run your car through it and it’s ok! Such an Amazing place with AMAZING STAFF!!!

Absolutely nothing.

The rooms (2) were quiet, very clean and well-equipped. Breakfast was great. The restaurant provided extremely tasty food from the local suppliers. The range of wines was impressive. The garden area with the beautiful range of flowers and the relaxing sun area was quite unique. The spa area was a great addition and the proximity of the gondola (cable car) to the hotel connected the town of Zweisimmen, the hotel Rinderberg and the mountain top. The view from the balcony was breathtaking.

That I did not have the chance to visit the spa area, or sample some of the wines. What a pity.

We took the gondola (5 min walk from the station) from Zweisimmen to the lodge. It was really easy and comfortable. The accommodation surpasses our expectations. We stayed here in July, and the views were breathtaking. The spa/wellness centre was amazing. The rooms were fresh, clean, and they had everything you needed.

Since the lodge is far from any shops or supermarkets, we would like to have a fridge in the room

The Alpine Lodge is an amazing place on the slopes of the Rinderberg. We went in summer and we were directed towards some incredible walks bringing us to idyllic places such as the top of the Rinderberg at 2078m. Upon return of these walks a Wonderfull wellness was waiting for us. Hassan was very helpful and you could ask him anything without hesitation. Breakfast and dinner were very good, even if you are a vegan. The chef prepares very nice vegan and regular salat plates with fresh herbs from there garden!! The ladies at the front desk made us feel comfortable and at home from the moment we walked in the door. All the superior rooms have a balcony overlooking the Gstaad valley and mountains. We definitely will come back and we recommend this place to everyone...Love Ine en Ellen❤️

eughhhh....🤔 Nope!😜

The location is amazing! If you don't have a car, make sure the cable car is functional, because the lodge is up the mountain from the village and there's no way to get up there on your own, except with the cable car. The spa & sauna make a relaxing retreat after a hike up the mountain. The cows are close to the lodge and their bells make a beautiful symphony.

Nothing!

We come to Zweisimmen every winter (holiday house) and I always wanted to stay in this hotel (half way up the mountain). We booked a room with a view (!) for 4 nights in Summer. It was a pleasure. Good breakfast and dinner was fine as well.

The chalet accommodation experience was simply perfect. When we woke up in the morning, we listened to the bells of the cows grazing around on our balcony. It was a peaceful stay. The breakfast was delicious. The staff was very warm and helpful. It was a place where I would like to stay longer.

The hotel is located in a charming place, between the beautiful Bernese Alps. From the hotel, there is a cable car to the top of the Rindenberg mountain and down to the town of Zweisimmen. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. Very good food served in the hotel restaurant. And after a walk in the mountains, you can relax in the spa area, overlooking the mountains.
