The Hotel was our base for an escorted tour on the Golden pass train. What a wonderful location, our room was extremely spacious and wonderful views of the surrounding area. Exceptional restaurant staff very hard working,if there was a down side I'm afraid there wasn't a lot of choice in our evening meals.Our room was serviced every day and was spotless. Remember in Switzerland it's a different plug adapter not the usual European, we purchased ours before we went and took our travel kettle. These were available to loan from restaurant with a deposit which is returned at the end of the holiday. We went to many different experiences, Gueyer cheese factory, chocolate factory ,Interlaken, Bern,Montreux to name a few but our highlights were Glassier 3000 spectacular views especially over the bridge with excellent café. But the top of the list was The Golden pass train, wow from Chateau-D'oex to Interlaken one day then Chateau-D'oex to Montreux, the last journey the carriage was classed as Belle Epoqe.Another couple of tips in resort there is a local supermarket in town but don't forget you're in Switzerland so it's a 10 minute walk uphill depending on how you walk. Also the film star David Niven had a home there and is buried in the local Cemetery. Chateau-D'oex is renowned for hot air ballooning and the orbiter is in the town. All in all a spectacular Golden holiday
