We stayed two nights for a skiing trip. The room was quite traditional, fairly large with a view to the mountains. It was a little cold, but it was the coldest weekend of the year outside. The bar area was cosy and the breakfast buffet had a nice selection. Staff were friendly and all spoke good English. The location is... More

Just returned from a weeks skiing holiday. The hotel is in an ideal location right on the railway station (but not noisy). It is 1 minute away from local buses The family who own the hotel were very caring and the staff too. We had a bowl of fresh fruit in our room on arrival, mid-week we had chocolate and... More

You would have to go out of your way to criticise the Derby. Back from our third winter visit to the hotel we found it again to be all we expected. Ideally located, front entrance onto station platform, but without noise ! Rooms warm and comfortable. Staff superb, friendly and prepared to have a bit of a laugh with us.... More

On arrival the room had two separate beds and was a bit on the small side. We upgraded to a suite and this was lovely. The staff are excellent and the food is very good. would... More

We brought our group here in July, 2011. We have brought groups here several times, so there no real surprises. It is DIRECTLY adjacent to the train station, but there is not the kind of noise you would expect from a metropolitan station. Since Grindelwald is the end stop in a mountain town, the standard chaos of the station is... More

Our group stayed at the Derby for three nights in September. Everyone was pleased with the balcony rooms, lovely breakfast and our evening dinner. They did whatever possible to make our stay enjoyable. This hotel is wonderful for groups and individual travelers. Everyone wants to go back to Grindelwald - and to the Derby. More

We traveled by train around Switzerland,landing in Grindewald for 6 nights in Sept,2011. Each day we walked out of the front door of the Derby Hotel and onto the train to go to another beautiful area nearby. Grindelwald is located in the best place to see the surrounding mountains,as well as Lauerbratten valley etc. Besides the convenience,the hotel is comfortable,clean... More

We stayed at the derby the last week of the season in October 2011. We were so impressed by the room with beautiful view of the mountains. The half board food was out standing and served by friendly polite and happy staff. I was concerned by a review that mentioned the "noisy" train station but I can not understand this.... More
