Need one night in July--between Lucern and Wengen

Hello!

I just realized that my existing lodging reservations are not quite right and I'm missing one night!? So, we will need to find one night in July. We will be starting in Lindau (near Zurich) and our next place to stay is in the village of Wengen. So, we need somewhere on the way to Wengen, and it could be just about anywhere...somewhere near Lucerne or between Lucerne and Wengen. I'm guessing Lucerne will be incredibly expensive. So we could spend part of a day in Lucerne and then head to a hotel somewhere south of there, but we are quite flexible. Any suggestions for a traveler who screwed up her itinerary? Thank you!

You might try to book that extra night in Wengen or Lauterbrunnen. You are only about 3 hours from the Zurich area to Wengen. Unless you stay in Bern or Luzern, a stop midway is just a stop. Luzern or Bern won't be anymore expensive than Wengen. Many different priced hotels in both cities.

Maybe a stop on Lake Brienz? It is close to Wengen. But lovely. Maybe spend that day taking a boat ride or the Brienzer Rothorn train. Or going to Harder Kulm or Schynige Platte.

for less expensive near Luzern is the suburb of Kriens. There are both an Ibis and a Holiday Inn Express.

Other intermediate stops could be Meiringen or Brienz.
