Nothing!

Picture perfect chalet with an unbelievably beautiful view. The chalet is perfectly clean and nicely furnished. Markus was there to great us and was an absolutely wonderful host.

We had a restful time in this chalet, and there was an immediate effect of vacation the moment we arrived. The surrounding is peaceful and the view of the lake and Niesen is simply breath-taking. The property has high quality kitchen and bathroom equipment, and the whirlpool was a nice touch to wind down after spending the days sightseeing in the region, which has so much beautiful nature to offer. There are self-service machines selling milk and eggs just 150m by foot from the chalet, which is so nice to be able to get the freshest ingredients for our breakfast. The weather was great during our stay, and enjoyed all our meals on the terrace with that perfect view. The owner acts professionally and remained contactable whenever we needed help. It was already the second time that my cousin stayed in this chalet, and friends are already eager to book it after seeing my photos. For a peaceful and relaxing vacation, this is definitely recommended.

Location Cleanliness Very helpful host

This property was phenomenal! The pictures do not do it justice. The host, Markus, was so amazing! I would highly recommend this chalet and would come back here in a heartbeat.

Friendly, helpful host with quick response time. Beautiful view of Lake Thun & Mt Niesen from all facings of the house. The house is very clean and it comes with high end appliances, as well as a jacuzzi that faces breathtaking views of the lake & mountain. Quiet and serene neighborhood.

Nothing

I stayed in Chalet Egglen for 4 days on our trip with my husband, daughter and parents. We were welcomed by Markus (AirBnb owner) and given a house tour with pamphlets and maps on the surroundings. As a local, he provided us some great tips on restaurants, where to go on a rainy day, how to navigate around etc. We did a bunch of research beforehand so we knew what exactly we wanted to do in Interlaken and surrounding areas, but you can not beat a local’s insight. The house was very clean, very well equipped and owner was very responsive. We had a few questions here and there and he was beyond helpful. He knew it was our 2-year daughter’s b’day and he even left a cake at our doorstep, going the extra mile to make our time lovely at his place. When you wake up the first thing you see is lake and mountains, the views are to die for. The neighborhood is so pretty. We were split between staying in Interlaken vs here, but so glad we picked this place. 15 min drive from Interlaken, 15 min drive from Thun – perfect location. We loved everything about this place and host. We travel a lot and have never stayed at a better house than this. I would highly recommend this property and Markus’ hospitality!

Markus was a very kind host. He actually was waiting in the chalet and greeted us unlike airbnb hosts where you do self check in and had to read the house rulebook. Markus told us all the instructions on how to use the lamp, the jacuzzi, how to use the electric stove and where things are. He also provided some recommendations on where to go. He even helped us to carry some suitcases despite one of his arm is broken. The most amazing thing about this place is the view. Omg the view is so breathtaking. Plus if you take the jacuzzi while watching the view, its so heavenly. I like how the chalet is very clean, the smell of wooden room reminds me of sauna room which is quite calming. There is an organic milk vending machine from a local farmer nearby the chalet, which is very cool. And its cheap too. Only 1.4 chf you get 1 litre of fresh organic milk! And best of all this chalet has automated water bidet toilet. This feels like back home in South East Asia or Japan where the toilet can use water.

Markus is a very nice host. But is it just me or it is maybe a swiss thing. But I cannot really enjoy my time in this stay. I feel the whole experience left me not wanting to come back to swiss again. Or at the very least next time I should have stayed in a hotel. The instruction for living "correctly" in this house is pretty long so I had to spend some time reading it and memorizing it. I feel like I need to do some work here. And I probably made some mistake in remembering all the rules. Probably wont happen if I am staying in a hotel. Not only I have to clean the dishes (which is fine, usually when I stay in airbnb, I always clean the dishes) but also also need to dry them and put them where they are stored when I check out otherwise there is a penalty. The keyword here is there is a penalty. I also need to make sure the trash bag are properly sorted. No aluminum or glass in the wastebin. Ok that is fine, when I am staying in Japan there are a lot of more types of recycling. But the catch is, in this chalet, it is my responsibility to find where the recycling center of the town. Like... I dont even live here. Why is it my responsibility to find where the recycling center is. If I throw away aluminum can in the trash, then Markus probably will get angry at me. And I happened to buy some beers so I had to take my beer cans with me in my car to throw away in the train station nearby because this chalet has no recyling bin. The lamps in the corridor, hallways, and the bathroom are timed to turn off automatically (except the kitchen and the bed room). So my mom actually was in the bathroom taking a shower then she want to change clothing and suddenly the lamp died. So she had to find the lamp switch and quite troublesome for her. At night when we are just wondering around the house, we need to keep turning on the lamp. Also there is no microwave. I dont know if its a swiss thing but all the chalets I stay in swiss dont have microwave.

Everything was just perfect and excellent, the property the view , the jacuzzi all was 10/10

The house is well equipped, kitchen and bathrooms are very clean. The view is outstanding. The location is great, just 10mins walk to Coop and 5 mins drive to the dock.

NA

Perfect amount of space for our group of 4. Loved the hot tub and the views. The neighborhood was peaceful and quaint. The beautiful house was very clean with comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped. Our host Markus was helpful, informative and responded quickly to inquiries. Check in/out was very easy. We would 100% stay here again.

This is minor, but if I could change one thing it would be to have a toilet on the bottom floor.

Nothing the owner was so rude

The owner stole our money and he is racist

Amazing view in every room of the house,especially the sunset, marvelous! Located at a quiet and beautiful town, facing Thun River. The house is well maintained, very clean, cooking facility is excellent,.Markus is so nice and he clearly explained every thing to us at check in date, he responded promptly to all inquiries during our stay. We really enjoy and love the stay here and feel quite relaxed.

The host is amazing! The view is unmatched. The beds are all comfortable. The hot tub was great!

I must say, it surpassed all my expectations from the moment we requested an early check-in till the moment you checked-out. The three-story chalet itself is beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and offers stunning panoramic views that will leave you in awe. From the moment we arrived, the host demonstrated the utmost professionalism and class, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of perfect. his attention to detail, combined with his warm and welcoming nature, made us feel right at home. Each floor of the chalet offers spacious living areas and comfortable bedrooms, making it the ideal choice for my family. The cleanliness of the chalet was evident throughout, and it is clear that the host takes great pride in maintaining such a high standard. In conclusion, I cannot recommend the Chalet EGGLEN highly enough. If you're looking for a luxurious and serene getaway, complete with a professional and classy host, look no further. This is the perfect destination to relax, unwind, and create lasting memories.

There is truly nothing negative to say. It's just that a rating out of 10 does not do justice to such an exceptional experience. I wish there were a 10+ rating available to better reflect our satisfaction.
