Belle Epoque Hotel Victoria

8/10 Good
"I love Kandersteg and the Victoria Hotel is the PERFECT place to stay here, with affordable prices, great breakfast and right in the center close to everything. This was the second time I've stayed there and will be back again. The only reason I marked a 4 in some areas is because the hotel is definitely "old" and could use some simple updating in the rooms to make them more comfortable (worn carpets, old furniture/fixtures, etc). But for me, I do not have fancy tastes so I enjoyed my stay. "
