Bergwelt Grindelwald - Alpine Design Resort
Modern Alpine design resort with an adventurer-explorer aesthetic — dark wood, tactile fabrics, firelight, and subtle references to historic Alpine pioneers throughout. Sophisticated but not stiff. The bar and restaurant have genuine energy.
Book a Luxury Room with Eiger View specifically — the north face view from the balcony is the highlight of many guest stays
Why It Matters
Member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World and Swiss Design Hotels. BG's Grill holds 16 Gault Millau points. Seven Spirits Bar named Hotel Bar of the Year 2026 by Falstaff. Named 'Honoured' in the Luxury Design & Architecture Resorts category of the 101 Best Hotels in Switzerland 2026. GM Tanja Münker also among Switzerland's 101 best hoteliers.
Bergwelt Grindelwald opened in 2021 and it doesn't feel like anywhere else in the Alps. Bold architecture, Swiss wood interiors, and a design ethos that nods to the golden age of British Alpine exploration — this is a hotel built around a story. The Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau stare you down from the balcony. The Fire & Ice Spa (800 m²) is one of the best in Switzerland. And the dining scene, anchored by BG's Grill with 16 Gault Millau points and The Seven Spirits Bar (Falstaff Hotel Bar of the Year 2026), gives you good reason to stay put after the slopes.
Where You'll Stay
12 room types available
Corner Room with Eiger View
28–31 m² corner room — the biggest of the standard Eiger-facing categories. Spacious balcony with that north face view, Schramm box-spring bed, Dornbracht rain shower. The corner position gives you a wider panorama and more natural light.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 29 sqmCosy Room with Eiger View
Same footprint as the Essential Room at 23 m², but the north face of the Eiger sits squarely in your view from the balcony. Schramm box-spring bed, full Dornbracht rain shower. For the Eiger orientation, this category is the most efficient upgrade.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 23 sqm
Essential Room
The entry-level room, but 'entry-level' is relative here. At 23–26 m², it's compact but comes with a Schramm box-spring bed (180×200 cm), Dornbracht rain shower, individual balcony, smart TV with sound system, minibar, and free high-speed WiFi. Warm Swiss wood throughout. Mountain-facing or side views.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 24 sqmLuxury Junior Suite
At 33 m², a proper suite with balcony and Dornbracht rain shower. Schramm box-spring bed, designer furniture, and the extra space to actually feel like you're staying somewhere special rather than sleeping in a room.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 33 sqm
Luxury Room
At 26–28 m², a step up in space from the Essential. Balcony or terrace, Schramm box-spring bed, Dornbracht rain shower, smart TV and sound system. Views vary; if you want the Eiger, book the Luxury Room with Eiger View instead.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 27 sqmLuxury Room with Eiger View
26–28 m² with direct views of the Eiger massif from your balcony or terrace. Same spec as the Luxury Room — Schramm bed, Dornbracht rain shower, smart TV — but the Eiger orientation is the main event here. A front-row seat to the north face.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 27 sqmResidence 'Grindel'
The second 132 m² private residence within the resort. Same spec as the Wald — three bedrooms, two bathrooms, full kitchen, large living area with fireplace, and wide balcony for up to six guests. Located in an adjacent exclusive chalet with full access to hotel amenities.
3x King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 132 sqmResidence 'Wald'
A 132 m² private chalet within the resort grounds — separate from the main building. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living area with fireplace, wide balcony, and a fully equipped kitchen. Sleeps up to six. Full access to the Fire & Ice SPA, BG's Grill, and all hotel services. This is the move for groups or families who want privacy without sacrificing resort amenities.
3x King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 132 sqmRoof Suite
40–43 m² under the roof with exposed timber beams and a fireplace. Private balcony, Schramm box-spring bed, and serious atmosphere. The kind of suite that makes you want to stay in rather than ski.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 41 sqmSpa Junior Suite
The standout mid-range option. At 45 m², it comes with a private in-room sauna and views of the Eiger north face from the balcony. Exposed roof beams, a fireplace, and that private sauna make this feel more like a mountain cabin than a hotel room. Schramm bed and full Dornbracht shower also included.
King (Schramm box-spring 180×200 cm) · 45 sqmThree Combined Rooms
Three adjoining rooms for up to six guests. All rooms equipped with Schramm box-spring beds. Works well for larger groups or extended families who want the hotel services but need multi-room capacity.

Two adjoining rooms combined into a two-bedroom suite for up to four guests. Both rooms equipped with Schramm box-spring beds (180×200 cm). Good for families or two couples traveling together.
