In August 2007, we celebrated at the Regina a very important wedding anniversary, and were so impressed that we returned in September 2008. It is la grande dame of the hotels in Wengen, with arguably the best view of the impressive Jungfrau-massif and the Staubbach Valley south of Lauterbrunnen. Built in the fin-de-siècle style, it exudes charme and atmosphere, with geranium-flower boxes below every window on the south side. It is competently owned and operated by the Meyer family. Its staff is experienced, friendly and courteous.

Dinners at the elegant Chez Meyers are excellent. The wine list is impressive, and includes a carefully-chosen assortment of Swiss wines. Breakfast is buffet-style, with egg dishes prepared individually. The bread is very tasty and healthy. So are jams and marmalades. The only surprise is that in the country that created “Bircher Müsli” it is missing. Instead, raw oats are available. In comparison with Germany, Austria and the Alsace, cold-meat offerings are somewhat limited. However, nothing is perfect, not even in Switzerland, but, in the grand scheme of things, it does not detract from the splendid experience of the Regina.

Wengen has no private automobiles, a real bonus, especially for North Americans, for whom this is virtually unimaginable; however, it is an important element of Wengen’s atmosphere. It is simply wonderful to be lying in bed with the windows open and nary a noise outside.

Forgot to post a review at the time. Hotel Regina was a disappointing experience. The accommodation was tatty, faded and noisy youngsters (staff?) disturbed the night (until gripped early one am). The dining room was pretentious; lots of synchronised silver lid lifting to reveal VERY average food also refused to provide carafe water and charged huge amounts for bottled water. The ski room was cold with no storage for skis or drying for wet kit, boots etc. All a bit Fawlty Towers but much more expensive! Wengen skiing OK but for those used to the efficient french lift systems will need to settle into the rather archaic trains etc. Lots of old brits faffing about yearning for pre-war days - some very nice quite a few boring.

This is a gem of hotel - absolutely perfect in every way. The staff led by Guido Meyer is amazing, the food is stupendous, and the views are incredible. I have stayed here several times over the last decade and whenever I leave i can't wait to return again the next time.

Some of the rooms have faded carpets and furniture and the TV's are older, but to me that is part of the charm of this hotel - and the views from the South facing rooms are indescribable. It isn't a Hyatt in a big city - It is grand and old world, comfortable, and stately, and very, very relaxing to be in.

I travel at least half the year in some of the finest hotels in the world - but I love this hotel more than any of them and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

My ancestors were from Wengen, Switzerland...and we found a treasure in Wengen to stay at for 4 nites, Hotel Regina, as we learned of my ancestors.

Guido Meyer, owner of this quaint, elegant and peaceful hotel, brings an inspirational feeling to his guests. His staff treats guests with kindness and each goes out of their way to provide assistance.

The food is fabulous, dinners are served very elegantly.
The spa is not to be missed,,,best facial I have ever had.

Enjoy the beauty of the Swiss Alps and the magic of Hotel Regina!!!

  • Liked — The kindness of the staff, attention to detail, food and the spa..
  • Disliked — Transportation to the area, but that is also part of its charm..
