Hotel Schuetzen Lauterbrunnen

Swiss chalet hotel in Lauterbrunnen with direct views of the Staubbach waterfall

Location & Views

Hotel Schützen Lauterbrunnen sits in the center of Lauterbrunnen, a 5-minute walk from the train station. The property faces the world-famous 1000 ft Staubbach waterfall, visible from many rooms and the garden terrace. Guests also have direct access to the Lauterbrunnen valley's cable cars and the Schilthorn and Mürren ski areas.

Dining

The hotel's restaurant offers Swiss à la carte dishes, including cheese fondue and raclette made with local cheeses, served in a dining room with an open fireplace. Breakfast is an extensive buffet featuring local specialties such as homemade bread and local cheeses, available for a surcharge. During summer, guests can eat on the garden terrace with views of the surrounding peaks.

Rooms

Rooms at Hotel Schützen Lauterbrunnen range from single to superior family rooms, some with balcony views of the waterfall. The property was renovated in 2013 and received a refresh in 2025 to preserve its Alpine character. All rooms include private bathrooms, and family rooms offer extra space with bunk beds or multiple sleeping arrangements.

Family-Friendly Features

Restaurant Schützen provides a children's menu and high chairs for younger guests. Family rooms can accommodate up to four people, and cribs are available on request. The on-site parking is free, and the central location means families are steps from playgrounds and hiking trails.

Winter Sports & Activities

During winter, the hotel offers ski-to-door access from the Schilthorn and Mürren ski regions, with ski storage on site. The Lauterbrunnen cable car is a short walk from the hotel, and guests can ski directly back to the valley. The property also has a ski school for beginners and intermediates.
