Landgasthof Grossteil

Giswil

Enjoying an idyllic location between the mountains and the Sarnersee lake, the family-run Landgasthof Grossteil offers fine Swiss cuisine, free Wi-Fi and simply furnished rooms.

During the warmer months you can taste the final seasonal dishes on the terrace of the Gasthof Grossteil while enjoying the panoramic views. Very accommodating hosts in a beautiful location midway between Interlaken and Lucern. Absolutely stunning views. Rooms were spacious and very clean. One room was beautifully remodeled, the other two were older but still very nice. The historic guesthouse is family owned and run and the love this family has for their guests is very evident. We had a travel delay that kept us from arriving while the restaurant was still serving dinner, but the hosts offered to make us cold sandwiches to have when we arrived. When we arrived, they had the sandwiches ready and offered a few other options (salad, appetizers), which was greatly appreciated!

Hotel Bahnhof 3 stars

Located opposite the train station in the peaceful town of Giswil, Hotel Bahnhof is just a 20-minute walk from Lake Sarnen. It features a restaurant and a large garden.

All of the simply furnished rooms at Hotel Bahnhof offer picturesque views over the surrounding countryside. Breakfast was good, lots to choose. The location has ups and downs. Although it is located near popular locations, you need a car to drive around. On the other hand its really quiet there. The balcony view is all nature.
