Morning receptionlist is super good. Booked 2 rooms. One room does not have hair dryer. Tried to find the evening receptionist at8:50 pm and she already left
We just needed the basics, bed and bathroom. If you are looking for a refrigerator or coffee maker in your room, you won't get it. It is located right in the center of town, which was perfect for us. We just needed a place to sleep after hiking all day.
Great location - rooms dusty/ shower curtain broke very easily / no safe or fridge

Better to share a bathroom as a solo traveller
Service great. Location good. Be aware reception is in the adjacent building… and they close at 9pm. Room was a solo room w bathroom…. Old and not in great condition. Not a great outlook and bed uncomfortable. I needed to stay an extra night and could only book a single/solo shared bathroom room… ironically it cost a little more than w a bathroom, but it was so much better. The hotel was fine and fine enough for a single night stay. But book the shared bathroom option of your a solo traveller. That room was on the top floor, had a balcony, better design and better bed! Shared bathroom very clean. Review is for the single room w bathroom.
Alpina urgently needs renovations. Shutters cannot be fixed. Aircon in the bathroom is deafening. Sink in the bathroom stinks moldy. Cupboard stinks sweaty. You can hear everything, what people say in the next room. Booking price of 177 CHF is a joke for what the hotel offers. Do not go there.
