Although my stay was short, it was very nice. The balcony, excellent breakfast, and being in the heart of Grindelwald made it worth it.

Beware of Bed Bugs
Unfortunately, the room assigned to us was infested with bed bugs. We also learnt that another room below ours suffered the same fate. While we were given another room, the entire stay was affected as we needed to take a lot of precautionary measures to prevent our items from getting infected. The overall upkeep of the room was generally satisfactory, but it was old and dated.

Overall hotel Residence was excellent and we would definitely go there again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We found the Residence to be adequate and worth the gorgeous views and proximity to a bus stop and some dining options. While the aesthetic is dated, our room was sufficient and clean. My only suggestion would be to add some thicker curtains or blinds as the headlights from cars did shine into our room quite early each morning (around 5:00 am). Our room was situated on the back of the building. The staff was friendly and this hotel is perfect for anyone who doesn’t plan to spend the whole trip in the room.
