Not sure if it was because of the lack of snow, but we found Murren to be quite sleepy. Very few tourists. Appeared to be lots of vacancies in town. Many shops appeared to have shut down for the season. The skiing was actually quite good at elevation throughout the Jungfrau region in spite of the lack of natural snowfall and we of course appreciate the train system to travel throughout the region. The terrain in the region is more beginner/intermediate than we anticipated, though there are some nice steeps if you know where to look. Murren seems to be the more remote place to stay so if traveling to the various resorts via train will annoy you, consider staying in Wengen or Grindelwald or Lauterbrunnen.

Mürren was perfect.
Mürren was perfect. The town is quite nice and sits on the edge of a cliff overlooking the Lauterbrunnen Valley. We stayed in Grindelwald prior to staying in Mürren and we so glad we made the effort to stay here. Amazing!!!

Beautiful quiet village with easy access to all other locations in the Lauterbrunnen valley. There is not as much open in Murren in the period before the full winter season gets underway. Make sure you make a note of the Murren Bahn timetable.

The valley feels like Yosemite only bigger and more accessible. The town of Murren is at the top of the valley and mountains go up another few thousand feet from there. The whole place is unbelievably scenic.
A lot of things close down in early October, like the funicular train up the mountain..

This is and amazing town has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world great hiking and alot of cool activities you can do from walking in side a glacier to zip line awesome place hotel on 2000 ft cliff in little Town on cliff take a tram to get to town wow !!!
The location is right in the center of Murren. The breakfast is good, it has all the necessary to fuel yourself before tracking) - sausages, fresh bread, coffee, etc. We had a room with a mountain view, what is really breathtaking!
The important thing is that there are fridge, kettle and microwave on the first floor, that is really come in handy when you are in Switzerland). The Coop is near the hotel.
The atmosphere of hotel is calm and relax, like you are the member of the good old club.
-Location is amazing next to ski school and kids ski park for learning. For parents with kids at ski school you cannot do better.
- the room was really nice (221)with 3 windows lots of light and one small balcony and a view overlooking mountains and street village
-ski in and out with ski room super convenient
-breakfast OK, did not try restaurant in evening
-Terrace of the hotel bar in front of ski school to watch your kids learning while sipping your apero, nice bar in an old gondola
The view from our room was beautiful, and the patio was a perfect place to sit and enjoy coffee in the morning. The breakfast was the best we had in Switzerland. The vintage charm of the hotel is great, I loved the skeleton key for the room. The shared showers and bathroom were very clean and spacious. We had a question about opening the patio window/door and the staff was prompt in assisting us (it's an ingenious design!). We loved our stay here and can't wait to visit again.
Staff was accomodating and very friendly. The location was fabulous. Loved the views and the balconies. Breakfast was wonderful. Loved the chalet style. Very nice to have the laundry facilities at the hotel. We used the spa and hot tub at the Sport Center. The location of the Bellevue Hotel between the Murren train station and cable car was very convenient. Also very convenient to the village. So nice to wake up to the cowbells moving through town in the morning.
Probably the best place we stayed in our Swiss trip. Great hotel, very clean room, nice location, close to the train station and the view from the balcony was just amazing. But a very unique part about this place is the personal touch from Tom and Jeannette. Lovely couple managing the property. Please try eating at the restaurant. Tom is a really good chef who made even boiled vegetables tasty ;) All in all, highly recommended if you are staying at Mürren.
As the main accommodation on the family holiday trip, we thoroughly enjoyed the comforts of the apartment. The owners insisted on picking us from the train station to the chalet and viceversa. Very happy to choice it so right, in the first holidays in Switzerland. With the children we enjoyed the swimming pool offered by the Murren sports complex upon payment of the tourist tax.
Perfect location centrally located in Murren. We loved the views from the deck and living room! It was great having a washer and the drying rack worked out very well, washing at night all was dry by morning. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds and pillows were very comfy. We would definitely stay there again!
Across the street from Mürren BLM. 8-10 minute walk to gondolas for Shilthorn, Berg, Gimmelwald, and Schilthornbahn. Restaurant at hotel was one of few still open past 6pm in Mid October! Good food, wine, and beer selection. Staff at reception/restaurant were very good and attentive.
Murren is such a beautiful place! The view of the town is spectacular and I really enjoyed it! The guy at the reception is very friendly and offered great suggestions on the hiking routes. The town is quiet at night and this hotel is not far from the cable car station to Schilthorn.
Amazing location with great Alpen view. Very clean room and premises. The breakfast provided was freshly made and very tasty. Above all, Jeanette was the best hostess ever. She made us feel home! We will highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Bernese Oberland area.
We rented one of the apartment. It has the best views of Murren, Lauterbrunnen , waterfalls, glaciers, and the mountains. The views from the apartment are amazing. I could not get enough of the views. The place is spacious, clean, comfortable, and with the best views in town.
Christoph and his team made us feel like family. The chef made excellent dinners each night. Also, the view from the hotel (and our room) was SPECTACULAR! A hiker's paradise! Christoph worked with us on early an earlier than expected departure, due to illness.
First off the price. I paid 1/2 to stay there for more nights than any place else on our holiday! The front balcony is fantastic. We drank a lot of coffee just admiring the view. Best shower ever!! Very clean. Close to gondolas for going down or up from murren.
Great location, staff very welcoming and efficient, hotel well maintained. Our room was lovely and clean. Situated in the heart of Murren and close to the station, great restaurants and cafeterias. The best panoramic view ever.
Excellent location in Murren, near the Allmendhubel funicular. A lovely combination of quaint alpine ambiance & contemporary comfort! Clean, comfortable; excellent breakfast (included with the room); welcoming staff.
The location was unbelievable! The mountains in front of the hotel were awe-inspiring and beautiful. We liked Murren because it was a small walkable town with no cars. The staff was especially nice and very helpful.
It’s always a delight to come back to Hotel Alpina: beautiful surroundings, warm hospitality, great breakfast with unbeatable view of the mountains. Restaurant also serves dinner- recommended!
