Location

The location was just off the main street in Murren. There are no cars allowed (although work vehicles for doing repairs do drive up the street), so it is very quiet. It is halfway between the train station and a gondola lift. The apartment was spacious and had a well stocked kitchen for cooking in as Switzerland restaurant prices are expensive. There is a little terrace in the front where you can enjoy the sun. There is spectacular view of the mountains out the front windows. The owners met us at the apartment. No hassle whatsoever. There is a large living room areas with a sofa and an armchair. There is a table large enough to fit 5-6 people. There is also free wifi which is very helpful.

There were only a couple negatives and were very minor compared with the excellent facility. The bed is cramped in the bedroom so to get out on the side nearest the windows you have to side step all the way around and the curtains do not block out the light. These are very minor issues and we would definitely recommend a stay here. We would stay again gladly.

Spacious, clean and had everything we wanted. Close to everything you could possible need. Margrith was informative and reachable. Thank you

We loved everything about our 2 week stay in the West apartment of Chalet Bim Chilchli, and we would absolutely love to stay here again someday. Our 2 young adult sons had their own bedrooms and we also had our own room (all with comfortable beds). We so enjoyed the mountain views from the many windows of the upstairs bedrooms and main floor living area, and we loved having a balcony. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the dishes and utensils we needed. The COOP market nearby was great to have so we could prepare most of our own meals, and the funicular, train, and gondolas were so easy to get to. We loved having a washing machine and our clothes dried overnight. By staying in Murren for 2 weeks & getting a summer pass for the gondolas we could decide when & where to go based on the weather. It was our first visit to Murren, and we hated to leave. We would love to go back someday and stay in this same place. It was a wonderful experience and a terrific place to stay.

The only downside was the staircase between main level and the bedrooms. It was fine for 3 out of 4 of us, but my son with cerebral palsy (and reduced mobility) would have preferred a staircase without any turns. (He was glad that the upstairs bathroom had a tub option for him.) Other than his experience of the staircase, we liked everything about Chalet Bim Chilchli's West apartment!

Ideally placed, very clean. Comfortable.

Nothing to dislike, the place is top notch

Wonderful host, excellent communication. Property was lovely. Perfectly located, clean and comfortable. Thank you Margrith!

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!

Would have been nice to have more than one trash bag but we managed with grocery bags. Some of us were hot at night. Opening windows mostly did the trick, maybe fans in the bedroom would be helpful. Mostly no real complaints.

Ideal central location in Mürren, wonderful views. The host, Margrith, was warmly welcoming and provided all the information needed for our stay. The kitchen is very well equipped. A beautiful spot from which to explore this fabulous location.

The property was excellent. Close to everything with tremendous views. Host was available and helpful.

We did not like the material of the fitted sheets on the beds. Some sort of synthetic fabric and it was very rough against the skin, and very hot when combined with body heat. The weather was hotter than usual during our stay and no a/c so cotton sheets would've been so much cooler and much more comfortable.

Clean. Beautiful

absolutely perfect location, close to everything important in Mürren. Right next to the inter sport where you can rent equipment for the via Ferrata. Most comfortable beds I’ve slept in whilst in Europe! Stunning views of the mountains.

Great location. Very clean well appointed apartment. Friendly host.

Access could be awkward for guests without good mobility. Quite steep stairs. Some apartments in the chalet had balconies. Ours unfortunately didnt.

location and cleanliness

Overall house was very good and sparkling clean and the location is great.

The owner was very rude. Since the train was not working I asked her is cable car are the only way to reach Murren or is there any discount for cable car for the people staying in murren as it was costing us 100eur per day. She responded very rudely and said do you think I am selling any discount coupons. Also, while giving the house tour she asked multiple times do you want to stay or want to go back home as this is expensive for you. I had to confront her that she is talking very rudely and this is not what I expected. After couple of days she tried to apologize by sending a note with a chocolate.

Hostess was exceptional! Convenient location to everything - store, lift, town, church, shops. Also peaceful and quiet! Beautiful views all around. Kitchen was well stocked! Family room and dining area was spacious and surrounded by windows! Apartment was quiet and very clean. Didn’t turn on the tv - so much to do but also had a cabinet of games and and bookshelf for rainy days. Great to have a washer and drying areas.

Sheets were a little durable. That’s about it. Everything was so nice!

Location.

The hostess was rude and unhelpful. She entered the apartment without my permission. Absolutely unacceptable. Just opened the door walked in and closed all the windows I had opened without saying a word. Came in on departure day a full hour and a half before stated departure time and just started cleaning. Thankfully I had other people I knew in town to help me.
