We had an amazing stay this beautiful part of Switzerland. Chalet Fontana is a comfortable and welcoming stay. It sits next to everything making you feel like a citizen of Murren immediately. It is a great launching point for a days hike, and Denise is a helpful planner making sure you get the most out of each day. This area... more

Our 4 nights and days in Murren were framed with lovely views and the kind hosting of Denise. Through her excellent recommendations we were able to hike all day, discover lovely dining options, including picnics with food from the local Co-Op Grocery, and have pleasant, restful evenings. This inn features excellent breakfast choices each morning as well as the camaraderie... more

We stayed in at Chalet Fontana for two nights in Room #3. The room was small and somewhat spartan, but was clean, functional, and had a very nice view of the mountains. Denice was a wonderful host and offered helpful suggestions. Breakfast was the best of the places we stayed on our trip with ample fresh bread, cereal, yogurt, and... more

Our 4 night stay at Chalet Fontana was a wonderful pocket of fun. Denise, the lovely hostess was adept at welcoming guests and making everyone feel comfortable. Our room #1 at the top of the stairs was clean and comfortable and had great views of the charming village and gorgeous alps. Each room has it's own sink , but the... more

I can't say enough good things about this place. The location is right smack dab in the middle of Murren, about a 10 minute walk from the train station and just a 5 minute walk from the cable car station. It is just across the walkway from a great restaurant and the grocery store and bank. The outside is so... more

Our short mid-June stay in Murren featured two types of weather; cloudy and spectacular. Unfortunately, it was cloudy for most of our visit. Denise, the owner/hostess at Chalet Fontana, was very helpful - she gave us great advice about what to see and do when the famous peaks above Murren are hidden in the clouds. She patiently answered our questions... more

We stayed in the apartment for four nights. It gave us the independence we sought while also being able to ask a local for information. The breakfast is very simple but we never felt it wasn't enough. With the expense of the food in the area it was wonderful to have a kitchen. The grocery store and the ATM is... more

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Chalet Fontana. The room was clean, breakfast was wonderful, and Denise was very helpful in answering any questions we had. My only complaint was there was no phone or internet in the establishment. Other than that, it was perfect for us! more

Over the last 14 years we have stayed at Chalet Fontana on four occasions. Three for nearly a week each. The Chalet is old but quite clean. The location is perfect, with fantastic views from the windows. Murren and the surrounding areas are pretty much of what I have always pictured when someone said "Switzerland". The breakfast is simple (breads,... more

I stayed in the chalet for 4 nights from June 29 to July 3. It is a nice small chalet in the moutain village of Murren with good views of the alps from some rooms. I got the rooms cheap at 45 Francs per night. It was great value for money. I was travelling solo. Denise, the owner is a... more
