A wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff was extremely warm and welcoming. The room was spacious, clean and had an amazing view. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We had dinner at the restaurant the first night and it was top-notch. I highly recommend this hotel.

The property is great. The staff is excellent. The food is outstanding. If you want a true view of the valley be careful and request a room on on the 2nd or 3rd floor and on the right side of the hotel that faces the valley (looking at the valley).

We loved our stay in the small chalet apartment at Hotel Baren! We had an amazing view of the mountains and could hear the bells on the sheep just down the road… and see the bunnies playing just outside our window by Hotel Edelweiss. The free breakfast was AMAZING and we had dinner there, too - also delicious. The staff was very attentive and helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Excellent value for money. The rooms were recently updated and modern. We made a mistake in booking a double room instead of a triple, and the owner went our of her way to get a spare bed for our daughter. They have an excellent restaurant too. It was summer but the room had an electric fan which helped a lot. A/C was not needed at all, at night the temperature was cold. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will stay again in the future.

From the helpful staff to the wonderful dinner to the cozy room with the gorgeous view, I have nothing but positive things to say about this hotel. I'm so glad I stayed in welcoming Wengen instead of snobby Interlaken.
