Overview

A small unpretentious hote enjoying a convenient location for resort amenities and ski area. The Jungfrau Lodge offers good value, simple accommodation and a friendly atmosphere.

The hotel is split across two buildings, named Jungfrau and Crystal. The main lodge keeps things simple with some more traditional feel, while Crystal has a more sleek, contemporary look with minimalist design and smart wooden furnishings. With plenty of south-facing rooms in each though, everyone can enjoy some gorgeous views of the iconic Eiger and surrounding peaks.

About Grindelwald

Accessible from Berne (75km) and Zurich (2/3 hours), Grindelwald is the oldest yet least- known of the 3 Jungfrau resorts (which combine to offer 188km of piste). Most will have heard of Wengen and Murren. All 3 sit around the magnificent Eiger, with Grindelwald at the base. A mountaineering Mecca, the setting and scenery are fantastic and the resort is picturesque in the extreme. Grindelwald has its own domain, linked with Wengen, while a slight trek can get you to Murren.

Grindelwald has Europe's longest sledge run - it is 15 km long!

The skiing favours intermediates and the resort is hugely popular with families. The ski school also has a reasonable reputation, with many English-speaking instructors.

There is plenty to do off the snow, with the train helping you to get around. Après-ski is pretty laid-back, while hotel restaurants are the focus for good grub. There are a few reasonable bars and 2 clubs, so it's slightly livelier than the other Jungfrau resorts. Access is provided by train from Interlaken.

Overall, a beautiful family ski resort, with a great selection of skiing and non-skiing options available.

The World Snow Festival takes place in Grindelwald each year. Thousands of sculpturers present their creations on this event. It is worth watching them how they make their creations.
