Hotel Silberhorn

The Von Allmen family that owns this hotel was welcoming and accommodating. They gave us a wonderful apartment room that was much more expensive than what we had paid for. The views were magnificent and there was a balcony with a walkout onto the hillside. The included breakfast was very good for continental standards.
The dinner too is good, not any less or more expensive than other restaurants in the town, though I am adventurous and eat everywhere.
Baet helped with currency exchange at a good bank rate (incidentally he has a banking background) and is a wonderful host. His mother, a former teacher, is a wonderful lady. As you can tell, we became like family, perhaps since few people stay six nights.
The cable car to Mürren runs right past the hotel property and its station is down the till slope on which the hotel is located. The train station is a very short walk as well. The only issue with walking though is that the hotel being atop a steep gradient, getting back from anywhere was physically exhausting.
If I return, I will stay here again.

Stayed here on our first night in Switzerland to go up the Schilthorn the next day. We were in a family room with view of the Staubbach Falls (in a building across the main hotel). Decent size for 2 adults and 2 little kids. Very awkward shower area though. The strong water pressure seemed too much for the window curtain and shower curtain that they both got blown toward me, making it difficult to shower without either one stuck to me. Wifi was included in room rate but quite spotty. Breakfast room at the main building with views of the mountain certainly added appeal to an otherwise mediocre food. Breads, jams and cold meats and cheeses, fruits, yogurt, juice and coffee.
Another point worth noting here is their restaurant. It’s got a nice ambience to it but food is bland. Spaghetti bolognese came with a lot of meat but hardly any sauce. Not worth the almost 30 CHF nor the calories. The ice cream with «surprise gift» dessert for kids were not good either. It’s just basically vanilla and chocolate ice cream (not equal to a good size scoop) in a small treasure chest plastic box with a small dolphin and a popsicle tattoo for 5.50 CHF. We found the prices at this restaurant to be a little higher than at Piz Gloria. I’d say go somewhere else.
