I had never heard of Kandersteg before and nor had anyone else that I spoke to about Switzerland but when I found this hotel on the Inghams website I decided to take a chance. I’m so glad I did! It is surrounded by mountains and just outside the small town and is both lovely, inside and out. We had two rooms, one ambience room for the children and we were upgraded to a suite, both rooms were spacious and very clean and had stunning views of the mountains. The inside pool was a big hit as was the snooker room and back from days out for tea and cake at 4pm a really nice little extra. Food was always going to be tricky as I’m the first to admit that I’m a bit fussy but the waiters were professional and friendly and always helpful with menu choices and swapping things around for us! Reception staff were very pleasant and picked us up and dropped us back to the train station when we arrived and departed. The only thing if I was being super picky would be the daily news, all written in German about the weather, things going on and menus for the evening. English guests seem to be the minority in the hotel which I am more than happy with but for when English guests are staying there, a copy in English would be really nice as we missed some of the important news for one of the evenings about a music night and then the waiters were surprised when we knew nothing about it! All in all a stunning location and perfect for day trips using the local buses, trains and cable cars

Really lovely classic Swiss hotel. The staff are super and so friendly, nothing is too much trouble. The restaurant, Nico’s, has nice food but is quite fussy and not always what you want after a day in the mountains! It would be good if they did some simpler stuff - however there are other options if you walk into town. Would definitely recommend the hotel, and it’s a great base for all the walks in and around Kandersteg, and perfectly located for the x3 cable cars.

Il nostro soggiorno è stato assolutamente amato. Tutto, la accoglienza amichevole, la camera, e soprattutto il colazione erano meravigliosi. L'hotel è idealmente situato vicino alla stazione ferroviaria, così come ristoranti. Il receptionista non avrebbe potuto essere più utile a rispondere alle nostre molte domande. Si consiglia molto l'Hotel Baxter, Grazie a tutti i meravigliosi staff che hanno reso il nostro soggiorno così piacevole durante le tempi difficili.

La città di visp è molto piccola e non mi aspettavo che sarebbe stato così difficile prenotare un hotel temporaneamente... ho comunque preso un hotel. Sensazione piuttosto vecchia, soprattutto l'ascensore... non è stato utilizzato all'inizio. Sotto la guida di un altro ospite, mi sono reso conto che la porta deve essere tirata dentro e fuori e la porta non si aprirà automaticamente (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵) Altri non sono male, molto puliti.

Sad to share that what used to be a proud, classic 5-star Swiss hotel experience now is reduced to an overpriced mediocre experience, at best. Through my stays during the past 15 years, I have witnessed a hotel fading to become a worn-down average 3-star hotel without proper staffing or attentive service, but fighting to stay in the five star range – at least when it comes to pricing. How about a 40$ simple gin & tonic in the bar? After you had to walk over to the front desk so they could try to locate a grumpy bartender. Twice! Breakfast was slow, even we were the two only guests. Ordered fried eggs and it took at least 15 mins for them to produce it. Coffee was semi-cold all three mornings. In general, the staff has severe problems communicating in English, so expect confusion and misunderstandings. If you are sensitive to mold, well, you should definitely choose another hotel. The pictures speaks for itself, this is next to the bed. In general, the lack of maintenance of the hotel is very visible. If you try the outdoor pool, look out for screws in the deck which have popped out everywhere. The so-called Turkish sauna barely broke out a sweat, and the ceiling was black of mold. Leukerbad is quite hilly, so dragging your luggage around is not ideal. We therefore ordered transport by the hotel minivan at 8:30 to the bus station the day before departure, to make our connection for journey back home. The transport was confirmed twice by the front desk. Checked out at 8:15 and sat down waiting for the transport, nobody came at agreed time (come on, this is Switzerland, right?), minutes went by, our bus was departing soon, went to ask the front desk, she was sorry, but the portier had took off with the van filled with luggage for a group that was departing later. No one could not drive us. She had no other suggestion, so instead of calling a taxi or try to help us in another way, she just continued doing nothing and yelled it was not her fault. We ended up running through the town with our bags and made our connection in less than a minute. A good advice; pick another hotel in otherwise amazing Leukerbad. Les Sources Des Alpes can no longer defend their stars – neither price. A 3-star at best.

I have been in Hotel De France few weeks ago with my wife and my child. The staff was amazing and the hotel is definitely comfortable, very close to city center. Walliser Alpentherme Spa was spectacular. I really hope to visit this hotel again.
