Perfect staff. The gentleman was welcoming, engaging and 'chauffeured' me through the check-in process from hello to the room door. There seemed in him a passion and interest to hone his hospitality skills to perfection. A small shed behind the building was especially made available for the safe and dry storage of my bike. The room was small but sufficient with a terrace door leading directly onto a sprawling roof top lounge with stunning mountain views. Downstairs, an excellent restaurant.

Check-in was easy. The receptionist was friendly and gave me the option to either speak English or German. I opted for German and happily did the check-in in German - which was a good confidence building exercise (I hadn't spoken much German over the previous 10 years!) The room was clean and comfortable. There was a good range of food for breakfast and the staff at breakfast were friendly and helpful. Again, they were happy to let me talk to them in German - which was appreciated. I should add that I did hear them speaking to some other guests in English. The location of the hotel was very convenient. The hotel is conveniently located only a couple of minutes walk from Brig SBB Hauptbahnhof (main railway station). The Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (railway) platforms are virtually straight outside the hotel. All the local bus stops were also located just about 1 minute's walk away from the hotel! So, very convenient for anyone using public transport!
Located in the Valais Mountains, Hotel Haus Schönstatt contactless-Check-In features a large garden and light rooms with free Wi-Fi access. The hotel has a dining room, a cafeteria and a garden café.
The Hotel Europe is opposite the station of the Matterhorn-Gotthard Railway / Glacier-Express, 656 feet from the center of Brig. It offers limited free on-site parking and free Wi-Fi.

Help were super accommodating, facilities clean, price great. I did not realize it was a hostel but other than lots of young active young people, it was as I pictured it.
A very pretty town, with lovely crisp fresh air. Fabulous selection of shops from fashion to food. Friendly and welcoming cafes and restaurants. Particularly like the pretty main square. Overall a feeling of safety and cleanliness.

Great wee town.
Great wee town. The centre was beautiful, as were the surrounding views. We ate at a local wee German restaurant and they seemed surprised we never booked! getting around Brig was easy...just walk, it's not that big. We would have loved to have explored distant villages, but we had no personal transport. We'd come back and explore more.

Brig is a central town within the Rhone valley.
Brig is a central town within the Rhone valley. It represents a train junction both east to west and north to south allowing access to the cities of Bern & Milan. The town is quite and has a few shops and restaurants which only stay open for a short time in the evening. The centre of the town is car free so peaceful to walk around at night. Brig offers transport links by both bus and train to many of the ski resorts in the area. Be aware that travel by train to Zermatt to see the Matterhorn cost 150CF for two people. Drinks & food are expensive in the town but it is safe and pleasant to walk around. There are numerous walks along the river and into the hillside.

Good location in Switzerland, with direct trains from Zürich...
Good location in Switzerland, with direct trains from Zürich and Geneva airports and Basel SBB station (a bus goes from Basel airport to Basel SBB), just over an hour by train from Berne. Good hiking opportunities, for example from nearby Naters up to Blatten and further up to Belalp.

Honestly, there isn't much to do here.
Honestly, there isn't much to do here. I stayed here because it's where the Glacier Express ended. I would not recommend it at a destination but if you need a place to spend the night in this area, it is fine.

Not much in Brig apart from the Stockalper.
Not much in Brig apart from the Stockalper. But it has a small and attractive old town centre, amazing views up to the mountains if weather is clear and, primarily, this is a very good place as a base for travelling by train to other parts of Switzerland on day trips and likewise it is only 30 minutes by train from Italy.
We travelled to Brig to do a day trip to Zermatt then connect with the Glacier Express the next day. Brig was much quieter than Zermatt and the hotel was a lovely place to return to for the night. Close to restaurants, and the train station and in beautiful surroundings. Such friendly staff, spacious rooms for us and our children, and a delicious breakfast. Great value for money and the ideal place to meet the Glacier Express for the Brig to Chur leg (we did the Zurich to Zermatt section on the regular train). Would definitely return.
Excellent breakfast and coffee- whatever you need to start the day good.
Also, the location next to the castle is amazing! It is beautiful, a pleasant 10 mins walk from train station,
Nice little town. We actually extended our stay for 3 more nights since it was very convenient and comfortable to stay. Thanks a lot to the staff and the owner for great hospitality! We enjoyed every minute of it. And hope to be back some time soon.
The hotel is located on a charming square only two blocks from the Brig Hbf. The restaurant served surprisingly good Italian food. The breakfast was not anything to write home about but it was ample. Brig itself has a small but wonderful Old Town with many outdoor restaurants and beautiful buildings to look at. It was nice to spend a night somewhere completely off the worn tourist track.
Nice central location less than 10 minutes from the train station and right around the corner from the central plaza. Not luxurious but clean and quite comfortable. Check in was extremely well-organized. Cleaning every day around 9, super efficient. Hotel seems to cater to tour groups but they were never in the way. Breakfast was good with a decent range of options, in the Swiss style.
We spent 3 days in Brig to go for some treks in the nearby region and this was a great find! Minimal but spacious room (much bigger than all of our stays in Switzerland). Theres a small guide giving all the information about the guesthouse. We even managed to do laundry (at a super minimal cost of 1 euro per wash). Bonus is the garden overlooking a castle. Highly recommend!
The staff was so kind and even let us check in early. The room was amazing, and the beds were very comfortable. Free towels and a very nice shower made it the best stay of my trip so far. The location was further from Brig than expected, but you can take bus 632 from the train station, and it will drop you off right in front of the residence.
A delightful stay in the charming small town of Brig. Returning through the lovely Scloss gardens to the hotel each night such a pleasure. A great host. All staff very friendly and seemed to want to ensure we were truly at home. Very comfortable rooms . Mountain views. Excellent breakfast. Thank you.
Good communication. Check in with the lock box was easy . Location is at the "Top of Brig" as expected but number 3 bus from the front of the train station stops right outside the apartment. The apartment is spacious with great views and very comfortable.
We spent a night there in a five-bed room. The room was not crowded with beds, there was enough space for everybody.
Facilities were great. We had dinner in the hotel's restaurant and it was fine. The staff was very friendly with us.
Beautiful decor and a very attentive staff. The room was charming. The location was ideal to explore the quaint little town of Brig. Coffee on the large terrace area in the morning (and wine in the evening) was sublime.
The owner is really great, super helpful and responsive. The location is very close to Brig center and Bahnhof, 10 minutes walk. Great views out of every window. Uncomplicated check in and check out.
Very relaxing old fashioned hotel. Nothing spectacular, but I slept very well. Advice : pick 3rd floor if you can : quiet and great view. Good breakfast included. Also, good parking ground in front.
The hotel is a very nice hotel. We are used to come to this hotel as it’s the close to the city Center and train station.
The staffs is very friendly and answer any question.
