Chalet Dolphin NEW!

The location of this property was very easy to get to from Grindelwald Terminal, Easy to get around with the SBB train/bus app. Check-in was easy, we arrived early, they let us put our bags in the house while we waited to check in. Upon arrival the house had plenty of room for the 7 of us. Kitchen had pot & pans, oven is confusing to work & no oil for the fondue pots, but had extra toilet paper! The house could have been cleaned better. Our bedroom sheets were dirty & did not smell clean, the floors/bathrooms/showers were all dirty & pieces were broken on the shower & the toilet. Upstairs bathroom sinks wouldn't drain & smelled awful. The other shower upstairs wouldn't drain & we came downstairs to water running down the kitchen wall after our first night there. The place had other small things loose or broken, door handles, outside table, upstairs wardrobe at risk of breaking/falling over, etc. smaller things that could easily be fixed. My dad took the drain apart & tightened it and seemed to help with the leaking ceiling. Marco was very quick to respond & had someone come out quickly to help w/the leak, but we were unable to use either of the bathrooms for a few days & all 7 of us had to use one bathroom. There is a washer & dryer on property, but it is very small & it takes 4-5 hours to wash & dry each load, but there are drying racks. Overall could be an awesome property if things were fixed and cleaned better for guests. Marco was kind & was not aware of the issues.

Checking was very easy. The house is big with multiple king beds, game area, large kitchen and table. Location in Grindelwald is an easy walk to downtown restaurants and hikes. I would stay here again.

Chalet Delphin was a perfect place for our group of 10. the kitchen/living area are very spacious. Only recommendations would be stove/oven directions would be helpful but YouTube worked and perhaps a few extra towels/pillows. Laundry takes so long and having some extras to use while laundering would be great. Some tips for the area: 1. The house is an uphill walk to town (you can use the road or there is a more direct but steeper pathway across the street. Good for exercise but if you are tired you can take the train from Grindelwald Grund (the path is just behind the hill and that goes to Grindelwald station every 30 mins) or Grindelwald Terminal. There is also a bus but we did not use it. The stop is actually at the Chalet, but road construction had closed the route while we were there. 2. Just down the hill at Grindelwald Terminal you will find the gondola to take you up to Eiger as well as the one to Mannlechin and they are both great. We visited Mannlechin a lot for the playground at the top as well as the views. We even took the train to Lauterbrunnen on our way back from Interlaken and then the train up to Wengen, the Wengen cable car up to Mannlechin, and then the gondola back down to Terminal. 3. You can walk on an almost flat path from down the hill past Grindelwald Grund to the cool Canyon Gorge.4. The First gondola is in town, a 10 minute walk up from Grindelwald Terminal. 5. Coop grocery in town AND in the Terminal station.Such a fun time, thanks!

Pros: Amazing view of Eiger from the 2nd floor. Lots of space, big kitchen and living areas. Minor Cons: showers are small, and not the closest spot to downtown Grindelwald if you'll be going back and forth frequently on foot. Thanks for a great stay!

We had a great time at this property! Close to the center of town, bus stop and swimming pool. There were a few dead bugs in the house but otherwise good cleanliness. Plenty of plates and silverware for a group. The beds were especially comfy. Thanks!
