We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at the Eiger Guesthouse Murren. The Gnocci was beautiful and delicious with both pesto and tomorrow. The risotto was creamy and hearty. The service and atmosphere were also top notch. A great evening.
I’ve been coming to this village for 11 years, and Eiger Guesthouse has always been my favorite destination—without question. I was a visitor for many years and now have the privilege of living in Switzerland, which makes me appreciate this place even more. The food is outstanding. Truly top-tier Swiss classics done so well they feel brand new—plus the best fondue I’ve had anywhere in Switzerland, and I don’t say that lightly. The service is intuitive and beautifully timed, the atmosphere is cozy yet elevated, and the location is unbeatable. The staff are warm, impeccably trained, and manage to be both highly professional and genuinely human. Everything is done with care, pride, and consistency you can feel. The menu is diverse enough that we eat here multiple times per stay and never get bored, and they also have an excellent vegetarian selection. The hotel itself is spotless, modern yet cozy, with warm wooden accents and charming regional décor throughout. And again—the location and views are exceptional. If you’re asking yourself whether to eat here, stay here, drink here, or base your entire Mürren experience here—the answer is yes. The Restaurant This is exactly what you want from a Swiss mountain restaurant: warm, atmospheric, and paired with a terrace offering gorgeous views. The Swiss dishes are classic and executed beautifully, and they also offer excellent Italian options with thoughtful seasonal rotations (the truffle mushroom creamy linguini deserves a mention). After 11 years coming to Switzerland, I can confidently say this is the best fondue I’ve had. On my last visit, the manager even took time to explain the cheese blend and sourcing, which really reflects the pride behind the food. Service here is exceptional—never rushed, never slow, always perfectly paced. Over more than a decade, the experience has remained remarkably consistent, which speaks to strong leadership. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know the manager, Ema, who has been here for many years, and it truly shows. The staff read the table beautifully and make everyone feel welcome, whether you want quiet privacy or a more social experience. Over the years, many team members—especially Artur, Rodrigo, Vanessa, Pedro, Bebe, and Francisco—have made my visits feel especially warm. The Hotel I’ve stayed here many times with different travel partners, and it works for everyone. The rooms are spacious, beautifully renovated, extremely comfortable, and have generous storage. Bathrooms are modern with great showers and excellent water pressure. Mountain-facing rooms offer stunning balcony views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. The location next to the train station is incredibly convenient, yet evenings are peaceful and quiet. Blackout curtains are excellent, and when the sun does rise, the views are spectacular. Breakfast is one of the best hotel breakfasts in Switzerland—fresh, varied, and clearly prepared with care. There’s also a relaxed, cozy bar that’s perfect for coffee, cocktails, or winding down, and it’s the kind of place where genuine connections happen naturally. The pool and spa are a short walk away, the grocery store is under 10 minutes, and everything in town is easily accessible. Final Thoughts I’ve stayed in many hotels in this village and throughout the region, and I always come back here for a reason. When it comes to dinner, accommodation, or atmosphere—it’s simply not a debate. Whether you’re coming for a meal, a drink, or a stay, this place is special. This is the go-to.
We are happy with our stay at the Eiger guesthouse murren. Go for the room with a mountain view and shared bathroom. Very clean and comfortable rooms. The shared bathroom was immaculate. Good service from the staff. The breakfast, to be honest, was nothing fancy. Not sure why everyone speaks so highly about it. No hot dishes. Mainly cold cuts, fruits, juice and bread and jam and tea and coffee.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Flawless Stay: Perfect Location and Service We recently returned from an amazing trip, and our stay at this hotel was a major highlight! 📍 Location & Comfort The location is superb—truly prime real estate that allowed us to easily explore the city. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable, providing a wonderful retreat after a long day. Fantastic view from the terrace 🍽️ Food and Dining The breakfast was delicious and high-quality. Furthermore, the first night's dinner in the hotel restaurant was so excellent that we didn't feel the need to dine anywhere else for the rest of our stay. 🌟 Team Highlight: Arthur A huge thank you to our waiter, Arthur! He is the heart of the team—incredibly client-oriented, positive, and attentive. His service made our dining experience truly special. Highly recommended!
It’s quite easy to reach the Eiger Guesthouse in Mürren, as it’s located right outside the cable car station. There’s hardly any walking needed, even if you’re coming from the Lauterbrunnen stop. There are two ways to get there, but I’d recommend taking the Grütschalp route.. it’s quicker and drops you off almost directly at the hotel. The other route is a bit farther to walk. The hotel is simple, cozy, and full of charm, with absolutely stunning views. We booked the most basic room and still had a lovely view. There wasn’t a fridge or kettle, but that wasn’t an issue for us since we didn’t need them. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even better. It was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. We were lucky enough to get snow one night, and the whole place looked magical. The food was good, and breakfast was especially nice with fresh bread. Their biggest attraction, though, has to be the adorable resident cat 🐈⬛! He’s super friendly...you’ll either find him lounging with the toys in the shop next door or happily roaming around the mountain with his little Swiss bell jingling. Overall, Mürren is a beautiful village, and staying at Eiger Guesthouse is something I’d highly recommend.
We loved our stay at Eiger Guesthouse during our four nights in Murren! The staff were so friendly and helpful and the location is perfect – just across the street from the train station with gorgeous mountain views. Our room was comfortable, with lots of storage and a nice little balcony to enjoy the views. We also ate at the restaurant during our stay and had a delicious meal and great service! We highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again!
