Built back in 1908, this family-run hotel is one of the oldest in Wengen and offers simple, traditional accommodation that’s perfect for skiers on a budget. You can’t miss the Bernerhof’s chalet-style exterior, with its cheery red shutters. Inside, the theme continues into the rooms, which have a fuss-free design and wooden furniture.
Food-wise, a continental buffet breakfast will fuel you up for the day, and in the evenings you're free to explore what Wengen's restaurants have to offer. Unless you’re eating or sleeping, you’ll likely be out on the slopes, and the Bernerhof is in an excellent location. It’s just 2 minutes’ walk to the Männlichen cable car, so you could be one of the first on the mountain. The hotel is on the main Dorfstrasse, so it’s also close to the restaurants and shops of Wengen, and just a 4-minute walk to the train station.
- Close to the lifts and resort centre.
- Fuel up on a buffet breakfast each morning.
- Family-run hotel that's been open for over a century.

Snow Promise
This operator is offering a new and improved Snow Promise which means they'll do everything they can to get you on the slopes if there's no snow while you're on holiday. Plus, when you book your holiday before 30 November 2023, you can now change your holiday fee-free if less than 10% of runs are open in the ski area you're travelling to, due to lack of snow or no snow. Not forgetting the option to upgrade to the Snow Promise Extra for even more flexibility if the snow lets you down. Find out more below.
Before You Go On Holiday
If there's a lack of snow or no snow in the ski area you're travelling to, you can change your holiday fee-free in the 4 days before you depart. Just so you know, they'll use the live conditions in the 4 days before you go, not the forecast conditions for your arrival. For example, if you're travelling on a Saturday, you can change your holiday from the Tuesday to the Friday before, if on Tuesday there's a lack of snow or no snow. They’ll refund the difference if your new holiday is cheaper, or you’ll need to pay the difference if the new holiday costs more.

While You're On Holiday
Your tour operator will do everything they can to get you on the slopes if there's no snow. If you book your lift passes with the operator and less than 10% of runs are open in the ski area due to lack of snow or no snow, they'll do their best to arrange up to three days of skiing in an open resort within a 2-hour drive from the resort you're staying in. Their local team will organise the transport and your new lift pass will be paid for too, so all you have to do is hop on the coach. And even if you haven’t booked your lift passes with the operator, you can still use the coach for free.
In the worst-case scenario where they can't get you to another open resort if you booked ski school and/or lift passes with the operator, they'll refund you for any lessons that have been cancelled and you'll get your lift pass money back for any days you were unable to ski due to lack of snow or no snow.
This applies to all package holidays with this operator, even if you book the day before you travel.
