Hotel Falken Summary

Run by the Von Allmen-Cova family since 1895, the Hotel Falken’s the most historic hotel in Wengen, offering a warm and friendly authentic Swiss welcome. Perched above the resort, the views of the Lauterbrunnen valley and the Jungfrau mountains are pretty special too.

The hotel's interior is a step back in time, with a large lounge featuring elegant furnishings, chandeliers, and patterned rugs. The piano sets the scene for live music some evenings, drawing both guests and locals alike. For a cosy corner, the bar – once a reading room – is just the spot for a post-ski catch-up.

You’re ski-in, ski-out here, so it’s super easy to hit the slopes. And to set you up for the day, tuck into a hearty hot and cold buffet breakfast with the mountains on show through the large windows. Head back to the restaurant in the evening and you’ve a delicious 4-course meal to fill up on.

Nestled at the foot of the majestic Jungfrau and looking out over the Eiger and Monch massive, Wengen is a truly spectacular location for a ski holiday. It’s linked to the resorts of Grindelwald, Mürren and Lauterbrunnen, forming the large Jungfrau ski area of over 200km. The famous Jungfrau region is one of the oldest and most popular holiday destinations in Switzerland and the sunny resort has long been a favourite with Brits. It dates back to around 1911, after tourists convinced the resort to keep their...
The railway still remains the key mode of transport between the ski areas – use it to get over to Grindelwald, Mürren, or Kleine Scheidegg at the base of the Eiger. However, it’s still possible to ski without catching the train thanks to the modern Männlichenbahn gondola. Total beginners should probably start with the Wengiboden nursery slope in the village if there is enough snow, but just remember it’s best in the mornings before the sun hits it. There’s also the Figeller children’s area, where the S...
Wengen certainly isn’t one of those mega party resorts you get in some parts of the Alps but there are some fun places for an après-ski tipple - head to Rocks Bar for televised sports events or go dancing at the Blue Monkey. There are some great restaurants in Wengen, many of which are based in hotels (but open to the public). For fine dining, Chez Meyer's Le Grand restaurant at the Hotel Regina is a must – its outstanding service and French cuisine has been granted 15/20 Gault Millau points (similar to Mi...
