"Lovely staff and lovely lodging. Clean! A short walk to the Oeschinensee cable car but away from the train hustle and bustle. Pro tip: Was surprised to find an elevator and even more surprised to find the restaurant is so well rated. Make sure you plan a night for dinner, best meal we had our entire trip in Switzerlans. Chef is amazing!"

"I had a great time here! The staff are SO friendly here, it was wonderful. If you have mobility issues, I would not book here. The stairs are very narrow and the walk from the road to the property is a bit far, and to check out you need to go to the hotel across the street. Huge shout out to the taxi driver, Joao,who was absolutely amazing!!! He was for friendly and made my day so much better by helping me go to the gondola and to the train station with a foot that is healing from a recent injury. I am so impressed."

8/10 Good
"I love Kandersteg and the Victoria Hotel is the PERFECT place to stay here, with affordable prices, great breakfast and right in the center close to everything. This was the second time I've stayed there and will be back again. The only reason I marked a 4 in some areas is because the hotel is definitely "old" and could use some simple updating in the rooms to make them more comfortable (worn carpets, old furniture/fixtures, etc). But for me, I do not have fancy tastes so I enjoyed my stay. "
