Hotel de Londres

Pros - staff are amazing - breakfast is great quality - room clean - centrally located - safe: pass code needed to enter premise after office hours - self-service on drinks, wine, and pre-paid hot beverage (not sure what the last one means, will find out at check out) Cons - room smell of mildew/sweat (you get used to it, then it's okay) - stayed from Sun-Tue, in this super quiet town, Monday night the music (and its bass) blasts into the night (it's 22:38, hoping 23:00 it will end?) Seriously, this town doesn't need stereo music blasting.... curfew of 21:00 should be enforced here. Ear plugs are provided, but with the bass and pounding, they are useless. Sadly, everything else seems useless when you could not sleep in a hotel. Overall Minus the music, I'd stay here again for sure.

Absolutely loved this hotel. It is centrally located in Brig and a short walk to everything including the train and over a dozen restaurants. The staff here are very friendly and do a nice job keeping the place very clean and inviting. The freshly made breakfasts are so nice and the home made granola is AMAZING. The staff speak several different languages so I was able to interact with them easily in English. I loved the old keys that are used to get into the room. Bed was comfortable. There was no TV in my room but that was fine with me. My only complaint would be that there is no closet, just a hanging rack with 6 hangers. I managed okay but I do like to hang up all my work clothes for a business trip. However even with that, I would never consider staying anywhere else in Brig when I return. I also love the mascot, such a cool logo.

The room is too small to my liking. Apart from that, they offer excellent breakfast: fresh fruit, fresh bread, fresh yoghurt. Most of all, freshly made pancakes. The girl made very nice pancakes. Everything with a heart. I particularly like the dining room, nice and cosy with a style.

We chose Hotel de Londres due its great location just up from the railway station and it was perfect for our 4 night stay. All the staff were very helpful and friendly and we really loved the breakfasts (yes, the granola). The Hotel with its wonderful ambiance feels more like a home ! We came to ride the fantastic Swiss trains including The Glacier Express and we really could not have made a better choice! A huge shout out to Lilian the owner for being so warm, welcoming and interesting! Thank you for making our stay so memorable and your excellent restaurant recommendations!! Very best wishes George & Charlotte

We stayed a couple of nights in Brig and thought it might be the low-point of our self-planned rail tour of Switzerland and were more than pleasantly surprised at how nice a town it was and this great hotel. We stayed in one of the double-room suites at the very top floor. The ceiling beams and funky roof slopes of the top floor were really fun from an architectural standpoint and there were great views out the windows (though they are small, historical, windows). The bed was very comfortable and we liked that we had windows on either side of the floor that we could open up to get fresh air. The hotel host was super nice and accommodating. The common area off the lobby had a very homey feeling; so much so that we decided to go down there and have a drink and hangout to to play a game of scrabble in the afternoon. There are a lot of restaurants to choose from. We came across the Channa restaurant around the corner from the hotel and thought it was closed until we opened the door and went inside... --what a scene and what a menu. Tons of locals out for dinner. Very festive and bustling. Another cool thing about this hotel is that it was super easy to walk to from the train station. Just a few very gently sloping blocks that were easy to navigate with our roller bags. No need for a taxi!

The hotel is easy to find, as it is straight down the main road from the train station and is an easy walk. The staff is very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The honesty bar is great because you can get a variety of snacks and drinks, including coffee and wine at your leisure. The morning breakfast was good. The room, however, was a bit small, particularly the bathroom. There is no t.v. in the room, but that really didn't matter to us. The biggest drawback was the loud music from an area bar. The loud bass made it difficult to sleep as it carried on until after 1 am. This made for a tough next day when we were taking the Glacier Express. All in all, a nice place, but be aware that the music might keep you awake.
