Which hotel in Lauterbrunnen Valley for My Way Alpine Tour Sept 7 - Sept 18, 2015?

You should contact the tour department. They are very helpful. I don't think they stay at the same hotel each trip. Would love to hear about your trip when you return. We are thinking about this tour next year.

Yes, this question was meant for the people in the know (i.e., the tour department). I hope they're reading this. Hello, helpful folks at the tour department. Would you please tell us which hotel we're staying in during the Lauterbrunnen Valley leg of our My Way Alpine Tour (Sept 7 - Sept 18, 2015)? Thank you for your help.

You can call them or send an email to the Tour Department. Those contact details should be with the tour information you have already received. May be a quicker reply than hoping one of the monitors sees your post. I, too, have found them always wonderfully helpful with any questions or problems I need addressed before a tour.

jo,

The contact details for the tour department can be accessed using the "Contact Information" link on the bottom left of this page. While some of the staff members do check the Forum, the quickest way to get an answer to your question would be to contact them directly. You'll receive a list of all your hotels about a month prior to your tour.

My tour stayed at the Oberland. There's one main street with several hotels. All would be as well located. The Oberland has an annex and some of the tour members stayed there. I don't know if the rooms were equivalent to the ones in the main building. If you book there, you may want to insist on a room in the main building.

Why don't you "contact" them for a reservation while you're there?

Tim, if I wait until we're actually there during the tour (to make the reservation for my return visit within a few days), wouldn't that be pushing my luck? Or are there a lot of openings in the area in the middle of September?

Everyone, I appreciate you all for trying to help.

If you are returning to the area, consider staying in Murren. There is a difference between staying in the valley and staying higher up. Why not experience both? I can highly recommend the Hotel Jungfrau in Murren.

jo,

I wouldn't suggest waiting until you're there to make a reservation, as September can be busy in that part of Switzerland. My preference would be to get a reservation as early as possible.

It would be a good idea to contact the tour department to find out where in the Lauterbrunnen Valley you'll be staying. From what I've seen, the tours use Lauterbrunnen a lot of the time but some groups have also stayed in Stechelberg. Which location to choose for your post-tour stay will depend on what you want to do while there. If you're planning to tour both sides of the valley, Lauterbrunnen is a better location as it's the transportation hub and provides easy access to both sides of the valley.

When we stayed at the Jungfrau hotel in Muerren a couple of years ago we were joined at breakfast by a GAS tour.

We stayed at the Hotel Bellevue in Murren in September 2013 and loved it. Gorgeous views of the Jungfraujoch from their deck and Oti (the proprietor) was very helpful in giving us directions on hiking trails. While we were there, and if it matters, one of Rick's tours ate dinner at the Bellevue. Oti said this happens every year.

Hi Jo, we stayed at the Hotel Jungfrau in Murren on the GAS tour in 2010. Great hotel, great location, great views, great food. Call the tour office for the specifics of your tour. Plan on having a wonderful time!

Hi Jo
My husband & I are also returning to the Lauterbrunnen Valley after the Sept 14 th "My Way Tour".
I phoned the tour dept & they told me we would be staying in Lauterbrunnen on the tour so we decided to stay in Murren when we return (after reading all the wonderful posts about it on this forum). Why not experience a little different perspective? I booked a room at the Bellevue Hotel by contacting them directly by email some weeks ago and feel I got a good rate.

HI! My husband and I are also going on the Sept.14 My Way Best Of Europe Tour! I have been planning this trip since before the new tours came out last year. We only have about 8 weeks to go!! I never thought it would get here but now it's coming too fast! I keep waiting for the tour to fill up!!

jo_pie,if you'd repost this thread under RS Tours, the Tour Department has stated elsewhere that they DO monitor that question category!

Why do you have to stay at the same hotel?? There are a number of good hotels in Lauterbrunnen. Right off hand, while the Oberland is nice, the hotel Staubach is also great. Just go to Booking.com, check out the options and book a room.

Hi Lynne and Chriss,

My husband and I are also going on the Sept 14 My Way Best of Europe tour. So excited we've been waiting a long time for this!

Lynne---did the tour dept tell you which hotel we were staying at in Lauterbrunnen?

Don't be confined tour your original RS hotel. Heck, don't even be confined to Lauterbrunnen. Get up and about. Venture to Gimmelwald, Murren, Wengen, etc on your own. It's super easy and the whole place is just designed to accommodate tourists.

Hi Trisha
I didn't ask which hotel in Lauterbrunnen as I only wanted to know which town we were staying in but we are taking the " My Way Alpine Europe Tour " on Sept 14 th not the " My Way Best of Europe Tour" so it may not have been the same hotel as your tour anyway.

Hope you have a great trip!
Lynne
