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.

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.
Free WiFi and limited free parking are available. All rooms at the property are fitted with a flat-screen TV with cable channels and a bathroom. Some include a balcony and/or a view of the palace.

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.
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.
Location: Great. Very close to the train station but also very quite. You do not hear the trains at all.
Room: The room was clean and of a good size with everything that you might need. Modernish.
Bed: The bed was comfortable and the bedding was nice.
Breakfast & Wifi: Also good
Staff: Super friendly and helpful.
Overall a very pleasant stay and I would stay here again
Very friendly and professional staff at the hotel. We got a free upgrade to a room with private bathroom. The hotel is located at the old town with a lovely garden, next to a historical building. The room is quiet at night, and the place is around 10 to 15 mins walk to the train station. We had a nice stay overall.
Very kind and helpful staff for early check in and other things. Hotel is quite close to the castle and walkable from the Brig station. Room was very spacious for a family of 4. Beds were quite comfortable. Room is attached to a big living hall where you can spend time along with the awesome view of Alps.. amazing.
Almost everything. The staff, bed, veranda, scenic view.. Best of all, the spontaneous support of my friend from the hotel in giving us a lift to catch a train to Interlaken with his own car once the public transport was not available in the time required and that to on a holiday! Love & Respect!
The location was great. it was just across the road from the railway station. Which was ideal as I caught the Glacier Express from there. No noise from the trains. Breakfast was good and staff friendly. Brig is a beautiful place to visit and explore from there. Would love to go back.
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.
Breakfast was quite good, but some mornings short of choices. Location was also good, but not enough to do and see in Brig to warrant 3 nights. Also evening meals were very expensive, so we did not eat at the hotel. Staff were very good and friendly.
This was a great location for reaching multiple areas in the mountains. Brig is also a great city to quietly relax after a day of sight seeing. You truly feel you are immersed in the culture. Patrick and his wife were very gracious hosts.
Staff were really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The room was beautifully clean and the bed so comfy. Dinner was delicious as was breakfast. Location and public transport to the hotel was so easy. Definitely recommend
Location is VERY close to the train station - short walk to check in! The lady behind the reception is friendly and helpful. Brig is not very big, and I found the location of the hotel a good central point to explore the area.
Central and amazing position in the middle of Brig.
The hotel stuff very friendly funny nice and willing to.help with everything.
Our room.was very nice spacious clean and with a jacuzzi.
Breakfast was delicious and very rich
Gets the job done! Cozy rooms, and we felt the breakfast was fantastic given the price of the stay. Hard to find another comparable hotel in town for less, even without breakfast. Great one night stay, and would stay again.
Good hotel with first rate continental breakfast. Well positioned in Brig with excellent t mountain view from upper floor rooms having the river.
Interesting model railway theme within hotel
The double room is EXCELLENT for families. 4 twin beds in 2 separate rooms and x2 tvs, very comfortable. Customer service is fantastic and the hotel is walking distance from station.
