Lovely hotel! Amazing staff that are very kind, quick and attentive. The hotel was lively with live music at night and great food. The views from the room were beautiful and it was very clean. The only bad thing was the really strong sewage smell in the hallways and room
My wife and I enjoyed our stay. The staff was great and the hotel was beautiful. We loved listening to the soothing sound of the cowbells from the pasture nearby.
A lovely old heritage hotel with a vintage feel, very clean and an excellent staff. A recommended experience. Close to train station, safe walking, good breakfast with an awesome view of the Jungfrau.
Hotel Falken is a charming hotel perched on top of the town of Wengen. If you like character, classic charm, and warmth, you’ll love your stay. The hotel offers the most beautiful views of the mountains and the breakfast buffet (included in your stay) was delicious with many options. It’s pricier, but worth it.
Incredible historic hotel with great views and an amazing staff. Everyone there was so nice. It felt like a privilege to stay, even if only for a night.

Clean and wonderful our room was south west facing wonderful. Tomorrow. The beds were comfortable
Very comfortable stay with a very good dinner.
Although the hotel included breakfast for all guests, many items would run out and were not replenished.
Older classic hotel charm in Wengen with stunning views of the Alps. Cozy adjoining rooms for our family with great breakfast offerings with very friendly staff and guard dog, Charlie! Short walk to the train station and town center.
This town is a car free zone, so going out of town will cost you a train ride. Since it was rainy and foggy day, we relaxed, just walked around the town .
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Falken. Our room offered great comfort and a breathtaking view, and we appreciated the consistent housekeeping. The historic charm of the lobby and dining area was very inviting. All the servers and staff were outstandingly friendly and welcoming. We particularly enjoyed the delicious breakfast each morning and the excellent coffee. While everything tasted great, I wished for a little more variety in the breakfast menu throughout our stay, but nonetheless, always enjoyed breakfast on our 4 day stay!
Don’t hesitate to stay at this hotel when visiting the breathtaking village of Wengen!
Amazing guest services starting from checkin, every day greetings and excellent breakfast options.
The hotel staff was so nice that they arranged surprised balloons and cake to celebrate by daughter’s birthday.
Eleanora at the front desk was very kind in making us feel at home!
We have a magnificent mountain peak view from our room and this hotel is just minutes away from train station, restaurants and stores.
The rooms were spacious and nicely decorated with excellent views from the balcony! However, since it is so old, you could hear everyone’s footsteps above you (as im sure people below us heard ours). It is much like a bed & breakfast.The staff was friendly & the breakfast buffet was very good! It is a little bit of a walk uphill to get to it if your health needs to consider that. They will give you a ride for 15 francs if needed.
Wengen is a hidden gem and this property was fabulous! I stayed with my 4 kids on the top level, which was a space with 2 rooms and a loft. We had plenty of sleeping space and magnificent views of the mountains and valley. There are cute shops and fantastic restaurants in Wengen. Hotel Falken offered a nice breakfast, and the staff was welcoming and helpful to us during our stay.
Excellent property with amazing Mountain Views from the room. Included breakfast was simple but delicious. Very friendly staff and they held the luggage for more than half a day after checkout.
The hotel is well mantained, very clean and rooms are antique but chic. It match very well with the area and is located in a hill overlooking the town and the mountains. The service was great! I hope I can go back in the future.
Beautiful location. Make sure you arrive before the last train from Lauterbrunnen leaves before midnight to go up to Wengen. Love the car free town. The view from our hotel was amazing.
Gorgeous views from this property! Hard to say anything negative. It is a charming old hotel. The breakfast was great. They also have a little “shuttle” to help with luggage. The hotel sits on a steep hill - so highly recommend that.
The town itself is sleepy - not too much going on, but we loved that! It’s easy to jump on the train and go somewhere nearby.
I would say they could upgrade the duvets and the beds a bit. That’s the reason for 4 stars, not 5. I got an extra duvet and all the feathers were in one half of it! Even when they made the bed, they left it that way - haha.
