We stayed here in February 2011. A charming place with plenty of character (the lack of a door between the bedroom and the loo was more a quirk than character adding, mind). We stayed in the 'ski room' which, I think, is one of their smaller rooms. It was well appointed and comfortable. Old stone walls and homely decorations gave... More

We chose this hotel on the basis of resort, price, location and reviews and were pleased with our selection. The hotel is relatively newly refurbished, in a picturesque spot. The accommodation is clean and charming - we had a room with beautiful views of the river out of the window. (Slightly unusual not to have a door into the bathroom/toilet... More

Things will be different when the new hotels/apartments/lift/golf course are built in the coming years, but today Andermatt seems to be a secret known only to the Swiss themselves (and a couple of Germans, Dutch and Belgians). Gemstock is a small but really great ski area, and the River House is a perfectly central location in Andermatt. Very nice family... More

Staff were very nice. Our trip was marred by a very noisy group of under 10s whose parents let them shout and run around the hotel with no consideration for others. Sound insulation is poor. Also the lavatory in the room is not enclosed which gives the atmosphere of staying/ sleeping in the lavatory. No bath only a very small... More

we stayed for a weekend in the riverhouse and we found the place through several brochures. It's a charming little hotel, but very small. Being 1.80m, my head was sticking to the ceiling in the room, which is maybe 1.90 high. The owners of the hotel are around, but they are very busy with cleaning and administration and don't spend...

We stayed for 2 nights at the hotel beginning of september, the hotel was beautiful, the work the owners have done in totally refurbishing it is amazing. The owners were charming, room was full of character and well fitted. The owners try and source all food locally, and endeavour to be very green, very commendable. Would definately recommend this hotel,... More

We stayed here completely unexpectedly, after visiting a few hotels in Andermatt, we came upon this boutique hotel on the river. The owners were very friendly and gave us a cute room with a window on the river. The hotel has 8 rooms, all different and very well kept. We had a great time and thought the price was very... More

Not at all your average alpine village hotel - we had the lovely family room and were very comfortable - though I would have liked to have had a bath to soak my feet after the long walks and bike rides (hired very good bicycles from the train station) we did along the excellently marked trails by the river. The... More

We stayed at the Riverhouse for two nights and chose it due to its good website and because we weren't attracted by the other somewhat oldfashioned Andermatt hotels. The last available room was no. 5 (Fels) and as it seems to be bigger than the others it was also quite expensive (just above SF 300!). We liked the size and... More
