Hotel Regina : Borthalten 1036, 3825 Mürren

Absolutely magical — Hotel Regina is an unforgettable gem tucked away high in the mountains, quite literally among the clouds. The location feels almost dreamlike, with panoramic views that shift with the light and mist, creating a sense of peace and wonder that’s hard to put into words. From the moment we arrived, the warmth of the staff was immediately felt. Everyone we encountered was genuinely friendly, attentive, and eager to make sure our stay was special — nothing was ever too much trouble, and their kindness really added a personal touch to the whole experience. The rooms are simple but incredibly comfortable — the memory foam beds deserve a special mention; we slept like babies every night. While the bathrooms are shared, they’re very thoughtfully designed, spotlessly clean, and there are plenty of them. Each shower is in its own private cubicle, and we never once had to wait or felt a lack of privacy — it was all surprisingly seamless. One of the absolute highlights was the food. Truly outstanding. Nearly everything is made using produce from their own garden or sourced from nearby local markets, and you can taste the care and freshness in every bite. It was honestly some of the best food we’ve ever eaten — not just in the region, but anywhere. The atmosphere is calm and restorative — wonderfully quiet, with a lovely terrace perfect for enjoying a drink while soaking in the views. Whether you’re coming to hike, relax, or just take in the mountain air, Hotel Regina is a perfect base. We’re already dreaming of coming back.

Pros: - Probably the most stunning view anywhere in the world - Cozy and beautiful interior - Incredibly accommodating and helpful staff - Excellent locally grown food (do yourself a giant favor and book half board) - Great location - Clean and highly organized Cons: - Somewhat echoey rooms, so noise depends on your neighbors. They provide earplugs so this isn’t a huge problem - Shared bathroom, although these are cleaned throughout the day and there isn’t a wait for showers or toilets - The view is so good it’s hard to fall asleep. You’ll want to stay up until the sun goes down and the stars come out Overall, absolutely loved it here. Definitely the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in.

This review is solely for the restaurant, as we did not stay at the hotel. During our visit to Murren in March 2024, we stumbled upon a charming hotel and decided to try their restaurant. We instantly fell in love with the atmosphere, especially the creaking wood floors and antique furniture. The service was exceptionally friendly, and the food was incredibly fresh and delicious. Despite hearing about the high costs in Switzerland, we found the prices for our lunch to be very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. To top it all off, we were treated to breathtaking views from our table. Highly recommended!
