Wonderful experience. The staff were very friendly, accommodating and caring. Beautiful views!
Incredible view from the room and dining terrace. Beatenburg is a super nice area but understand that it is a little bit of a drive from Interlaken or having many dining choices. Hotel owners were very nice and helpful with suggestions.
Our stay in hotel Gloria was the highlight of our visit to Switzerland. The hospitality and friendliness of the owner and employees was unmatched and the views were amazing. The included breakfast was delicious, as well as the dinner we had on site. Highly recommend.
The staff was very friendly, accommodating and pleasing. They went out of their way to help us navigate the neighborhood areas and provide guidance and suggestions. The food throughout our stay was amazing, especially the different soups that we tasted and the fresh home-made butter. The room was very clean, tidy and well-maintained.
Hotel Gloria is by far the best hotel we’ve ever stayed at! The owners were so kind and made our stay so enjoyable. They were so welcoming and treated us like family. The views are absolutely stunning and we were so pleased with our room. It was clean, charming, and comfortable. I highly recommend staying at this hotel!!! You won’t be disappointed! I look forward to staying here again one day. Thank you!!!
When I return to the Interlaken area, this will be the only hotel I choose to stay at. Beatenberg is perfect for those looking for a less crowded and more scenic stay in the area. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The staff is extremely friendly, professional, and helpful. I highly recommend taking the cable car just up the street to Niederhorn for the best views, friendly Swiss cows, great hikes, and much less of a crowd. Also noteworthy is the free hotel breakfast: I will never have one better.
Hotel Gloria is a smaller, boutique hotel, but when you walk inside - oh the greatness!! It’s run by a very nice couple, one of which is a renowned chef , so the food onsite is tremendous. The personal touches and attention to the guests was outstanding. We stayed here with our two kids and got the family-sized room and it was perfect because it had two separate rooms that close off from one another. The kids loved the bunk beds. We loved the Lake Thun view from our balcony. Hotel Gloria was about a 15/20 min drive to central Interlaken, but the drive is beautiful! If you have a car, this is a perfect hotel choice…nice and quiet, easy parking, great breakfast, great staff, and wonderful Swiss charm. Highly recommend and would stay here again for sure!
Lovely hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Dinner at the restaurant and breakfast was lovely. The view from the room was gorgeous. We had a wonderful stay.
We were treated exceptionally well here. Also, simple, but welcoming features were appreciated--lit candles, personalized welcome, etc. The dining was exceptional as well. Loved our time here and enjoyed meeting Bernard and Jackie--the chef and owners.
We travel a lot as a family and it has been a while getting the personal and wonderful treatment we received at Hotel Gloria. Our daughters have a nut allergy and they went out of their way to make us feel safe at breakfast. The staff was all friendly and the owners Bernhard and Jacky are so kind and personable. The location was amazing, we had a room with a large balcony facing Lake Thun and the room was nicely decorated. We highly recommend this hotel, we didn’t want to leave.
We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Gloria. Jackie and her staff were absolutely incredible to us. Our room had the most beautiful view and we had a fantastic time. While the view and the room was amazing, the thing that stood out the most was the staff. They were so kind and helpful to us during our stay. We had to check out early on the day we were leaving and they even packed us a lunch for our travels since we wouldn’t be able to make breakfast. Thank you so much to the staff of Hotel Gloria, you were magnificent and we would love to come back here in the future simply because of your warm hospitality.
Wir haben eine schöne Zeit gehabt. Nette Familienhotel, tolle Gastgeber. Das Hotel ist gut platziert, mit tollen Ausicht. Wir können es nur weiterempfhelen.
Une vue à couper le souffle, un personnel accueillant et chaleureux ! Une agréable surprise de découvrir des petits chocolats de Pâques devant notre porte au petit matin. Je recommande ce lieu.
Wunderbare Aussicht, sehr freundliches Personal, Zimmer und Ausstattung eher einfach aber völlig ausreichend. Schöner Balkon mit Top-Aussicht, Liebe zum Detail zB Wolldecke auf Balkon, Deko in der Lobby und Restaurant.
It's a nice and cozy family-run hotel with stunning view of the mountains and lake. Jacky the owner is very friendly. She greeted us and made sue everything was okay. The staff also speaks good English and are very helpful.
The hotel is in a very good condition, the view from the balcony is amazing. We'are glad we have chosen to stay at Hotel Gloria. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Hotel localizado bem de frente pro lago e montanhas com vista perfeita. Hotel 3 estrelas muito bom. Excelente café da manhã e possui um bom restaurante. Não espere grandes luxos, mas cumpre o esperado para um hotel 3 estrelas. Não é tão próximo a interlaken mas tem um ponto de ônibus próximo que é de graça, pois o hotel fornece um cartão para transportes públicos. Gostei da Recepcao, funcionários super atenciosos. O preço e salgado, como tudo na Suíça.
