Overview
Located at the foot of the ski slopes, Historic Hotel Falken was one of the first hotels in the Jungfrau region. It offers a music room, a terrace and guided walks. Dating back to 1895, Falken Hotel preserves the charming features of its original turn-of-the-century interiors and is part of the Swiss Historic Hotels. The comfortable bedrooms have been decorated with traditional furniture and antique carpets. All of them offer views of the Jungfrau Massif or across the village. The cosy lounge bar and elegant restaurant feature antique furniture, historic drawings and stained glass windows. At the dining room, guests can enjoy delicious national specialities and fine wines, while the beautiful music room offers piano concerts in the evening. Half-board is also available and it includes breakfast and a 4-course dinner. During wintertime, Historic Hotel Falken organises guided walks and snowshoeing tours in the area, and the ice skating rink is located just 100 metres away.

Lovely hotel with the carefully maintained charm of the old world. I arrived late late in the evening from a multi day hike and was greeted so warmly that I felt like they had been waiting just for me. Would absolutely recommend!

“This hotel was atmospheric and utterly charming. Highly recommended.”
This is quite possibly the nicest hotel in which I have ever stayed. Ever. Comms with staff regarding booking were polite, efficient, friendly, obliging. Awesome location, with jaw-dropping views. AMAZING. Upon arrival, we were offered a drink, such a warm welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Fantastic customer service. Fresh flowers in the public areas, a nice touch. Comfortable, well-appointed room, with everything thought of.

“It was uncomfortable, poorly maintained, and disappointing overall.”
Let me start by saying this is a historic hotel as stated on the site, alot of old furnishings and quirky meeting room, the bed linen and sheets were clean Our room looked across to the main area into the centre of the little town, visibility was extremely bad in Late sept, mist n very dull, i imagine on sunnier days it would be very pleasant view.

The staff was wonderful! Location of hotel was great and we loved the view:)! Our room was small, but that's what happens with an historic hotel and the amount we paid. Overall...wonderful experience!

“Great hotel to come back to & relax after a day of activities/ exploring”
Breakfast was good - plenty of variety for the 4 of us. Location of hotel was stunning with views of town & mountains. Decor was dated but with Falken being a historic hotel we felt it added to its charm. Staff at hotel were very kind.
