Nice but very overpriced
Nice chalet style hotel with a nice bar. Quite overpriced though for what you get. The spa is very small and operates on a booking schedule. The breakfast is quite limited (they also charge you 14 CHF for an avocado toast). The Frenchie restaurant is very overpriced with an ambitious but underperforming menu. Also stay away from the extremely overpriced Swiss wines. Staff is friendly though. All in all, would be a good hotel if it cost half as much as it does now.

Stunning hotel, with lovely staff, lovely decor in the lounge, restaurant and bar, great spa area. The quality of food and beverage was outstanding. The bedrooms were however disappointingly small: classic rooms are clearly not value for money.

Lovely stay, but there are some negatives
Great stay overall - friendly reception and especially housekeeping staff, but there are some things to consider if staying for a longer period: - There is a nightclub in the same building and some rooms are just above it. And it's not just a sound of music, but loud people outside and constantly slamming doors.. It's a shame that none of receptionists made us aware of that. - Breakfast was very limited. You won't even get ANY fresh veggies (except cabbage salad) even if you ask. - Showers are fitted in a wrong position, so every time you take a shower, you're flooding the whole bathroom. Although we did enjoy our stay, the room was very spacious, clean and bright with a wonderful view to the Apls. Hotel is also in a great location - 5-10 walking distance from the cable cars and the main shops/restaurants.

Excellent stylish place to stay in Verbier
The rooms are very well decorated, and the bed was super comfortable. Moreover the staff is extremely nice. The breakfast was very good and served until 11am. Clean and relaxing spa with an outside jacuzzi. We can only recommend that place and would love to come back!

Quirky Place, good value, great service.
Great location just a hair away the main drag, in the best way. Quite a value considering the area. Nice bar, really wonderful front desk staff and spa. Wish I would have known about the jacuzzi availability/hours when I checked in! Only drawback is that instead of looking into the gorgeous valley below, the balcony of the upper floor rooms looks into a children’s trampoline park. For less than half the price of the W, is definitely stay here again. Full review: https://macaronsandmayhem.com/2019/08/19/experimental-chalet-verbier/

Breath of fresh air
Friendly and attentive service from Jean-Philippe and the rest of the team this summer. The cocktail bar was nice for a post-Verbier Festival nightcap. It is a breath of fresh air to see a hotel design concept like this in the Alps.
