Reviews of Chambre d'hôtes L'ours Bleu

Gorgeous little chalet above the village of Les Diablerets. Really felt like being welcomed into someone’s home but still had plenty of privacy.

Nothing - we loved everything!

The location was stunning as were the views. The hosts were incredible as was the breakfast!

beautiful chalet with magnificent views, very friendly and warm, caring hosts, you feel like at home, free bus to different location 300 from the chalet.

Amazing views and friendly and helpful staff. The location was perfect as we traveled to Glacier 3000 both days via the free 180 bus.

No complaints, the property is great

Everything The location the quality and the hosts were incredible

I just didn’t want to go home it was that perfect

Great place to stay, calm and peaceful. The room was comfy, clean and beautiful. The balcony and the view was incredible. Philippe was an amazing host, welcoming, helpful and very kind ! Thank you for hosting us. I definitely recommend this place

The view from our room was amazing ! The hosts were very welcoming and gave us lots of advice about what to do in the surrounding area. A great location for hiking or to visit the glacier 3000. We had the Chinese fondue with homemade gratin, salads and sauces on our first evening and it was delicious!! The rooms were super comfortable and great WiFi connection too. We had a lovely stay and will be back for sure. Thank you !

The views were stunning. The welcome drinks in the sitting room were an u expected bonus. Homemade fondue - delicious, served with bread and potatoes. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Arlette organised our Glacier 3000 ticket for a day when the weather was better. Phillipe & Arlette had plenty of suggestions for things to do and places to eat. The breakfast is great, fresh, homemade preserves, French toast, eggs, cereals, yoghurts, breads, cheese & meats.

the human quality of the hosts

Great hosts, superb location with great views. Decent room size.

Absolutely nothing

Good location, good parking just in front, rooms and views are amazing directly to the mountains, the owners are super nice and the breakfast was perfect! With many local products!

Phillipe and Arlette were incredibly kind and accomodating to us, including picking us up from the train station, giving us recommendations for hikes/restaurants, and giving us a ride back from the restaurant when it was raining. They truly went above and beyond what a normal host would do. The room was small (just like any room in Europe), but it had an amazing view, and it was incredibly quiet and tranquil. The breakfast was fantastic and included ingredients local to the region. I can’t recommend the place highly enough.

The location is a little far from the city, but that’s what makes it so peaceful.

Everything was perfect :) The hosts were super friendly, the room was beautiful, and the breakfast was super delicious. I would love to come back again!

My daughter and I spent two nights at the Chambre d'hôte l'Ours Bleu in late February 2024 and I can confidently say that this is one of the best places I have every stayed. The chalet itself is wonderful, with a lovely warm atmosphere and very comfortable and cosy rooms. We had a room with a balcony and a breath taking view on the mountains. From the moment we arrived, the hosts, Arlette and Philippe, made sure our stay was perfect. They picked us up from the station, provided us with all necessary tourist and public transport information, making sure we got our discount card and telling us all about the region. In the evening they offered us a local aperitif and told us about the history of les Diablerets. Arlette even made a very cute mocktail for my daughter, and brought out comics and games for her. The breakfast was simply delicious, all home made with local products (jam, cheese, yoghurt, cereals, bread), and my daughter got to make her own crepes and fill them with a range of home made jams. On the second day we had a lovely Swiss variation of French toast. Philippe's fondue Fribourgeoise was also incredible, and the we had the most lovely table light by candelight. The whole time we were made to feel really and home and enjoyed some great conversations with Arlette and Philippe. They drove us back down to the village the day we left and arranged for a shop to keep our luggage so we could enjoy a last morning of ice skating (and they drove us to the ice rink as well!) I would absolutely recommend this place for families with older children or for couples. We cannot wait to go back!

We liked everything, it was really perfect.

The hosts were extremely welcoming, I've never experienced anything like it. It felt like you were staying in your own chalet with friends and family and they offered freshly cooked meals and breakfast. If you are a couple planning a few quiet days in the Swiss mountains, this is definitely the place to go, no doubt about it!

Our stay in Ours Bleu was amazing. The chalet is really comfortable and it has very nice views of the mountains. The shared area is very comfortable and the owners are very friendly, helpful, and always very extra to help us and ensure we enjoy our stay

Our trip was enhanced by Philippe's friendly hosting & the chalet was filled with hotel quality facilities. Philippe was very accommodating to our needs; a duo of friends here to explore the mountains! We were very impressed with the atmosphere/character of the place & the view from the balcony. We used the chalet to crash after long days of exploring the nearby towns & sites. Our only pitfall was not getting a hire car for our time as some late night walks to the chalet from the train station took their toll (on one of us..) however there is a great bus service through the locality that we depended on during our time here. We were fortunate enough to have good weather (sunny, snow on mountains, clear night skies), with all places open and quiet on the 'tourist' end, if felt like we had the region to ourselves a bit. I could honestly write for ages on this place & our fabulous trip. But to cut it short, I can only suggest that you book this place or somewhere near to enjoy this area of Switzerland. I hope this helps :)

Nothing, the place was perfectly suitable for our needs, we would stay again!
