Spiez Castle

Room was clean and staff were lovely

I was there for five nights, and I had a great time. It’s a simple place (no gym, i.e.), but it has friendly and efficient staff and well-maintained rooms. The only thing you may want to know is it doesn’t have AC: it didn’t bother me as I could open multiple windows wide and the weather was great throughout my stay. They also provide a fan. But if you can’t stand even mild heat, this is something to consider. (They do have a heater, which I didn’t use since the weather was, again, perfect.) They also have a simple breakfast buffet, which I didn’t buy in advance but ended up using everyday. It seemed expensive when I booked my stay, but I soon realized EVERYTHING is expensive in Switzerland, so… if you need lots of espresso-based coffee in the morning like me, it is worth considering.
