Lovely balcony when weather warmer than it was in February.Family run hotel with personal service. Food varied and enjoyable. Brig is worth exploring and the local station is easy to get to... More

They don't have very many guests, and so ask for a large room. Ours overlooked the plaza and was very comfortable. The bath was nice to soak in after being out in the cold.

The bar is used by the locals. Quiet town centre location at the bottom of the old Simplon Pass road (restricted traffic)

We stayed for four nights at the beginning of October with a railway tour of 26 people, and were very pleased and impressed with the hotel. They coped well with a low potassium diet, and in fact the food was very good indeed. We tended to be early for breakfast, so no problems. I am now a fan of Brie... More

We went as part of an inclusive tour, our impression was that this hotel could be much improved with a few simple changes. Our allocated room on the top floor was in the roof eaves, had to move furniture to gain access to the fridge/minibar, and the roller blind to the window/door to small balcony was seized up. Also a... More

We booked at room here at 18.30, arrived 3 hours later to find they'd given our room away, even though it was secured with a credit card. They had another smaller room available on the top floor which cost less so they moved us to there instead. The hotel was in a great location, over looking the square with its... More

It seems that this hotel survives on Great Railway Journeys business, and our stay was with one of their groups. Rooms to the front of the hotel look over the shopping area of the town and hills beyond. The back is the place to be where the rooms have balconies and from higher floors stunning views across the town to... More

We stayed at the hotel Simplon for three nights during a ten day day trip to Switzerland in September of 2010.The position of the hotel was perfect for us being at the head of an open area with outside seating and tables. The food in the hotel was very good, and the service was first class. We had a double... More

My husband and I stayed at this hotel with a group of people on a Great Rail Holiday. This hotel was clean and tidy, and the food was of a good quailty. All the staff were lovely. The rooms were of a good standard. We'd be very happy to stay at this hotel again.

Stayed here with a goup of people on a great train journey. The hotel family had recently had a serious illness in the family but I did feel despite this the hotel was a little lacking in vital areas. Storage for clothes was minimal, the tv was small, not working well and high up giving me a cricked neck and... More
