Luxury chalet with a view of the north face of the Eiger | Ski Chalet in Grindelwald

We love this chalet – and you can feel it in every detail.
High above the village of Grindelwald, in the sunniest location with unobstructed views of the majestic mountains, lies Chalet Orion – our very own retreat full of warmth, style, and comfort.
The house combines traditional Alpine architecture with modern elegance. Large windows flood the rooms with light and offer breathtaking views.
An elevator connects all floors – ideal for grandparents, children, or simply for conveniently transporting luggage. Blackout systems throughout the house ensure restful sleep – at any time of day.
The spacious kitchen is a true highlight: two refrigerators, plenty of dishes, and everything a cook’s heart desires – along with a wide view over the village while preparing meals together. It doesn’t feel like work, but like pure enjoyment.
Our accommodation is located in one of the most beautiful areas of Grindelwald. Here you’ll enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the surrounding mountains, including the majestic north face of the Eiger. A large garden and terrace are also available for your enjoyment.
A bus stops right near the Orion apartment and takes you comfortably within minutes to the ski slopes or the charming village center of Grindelwald. Culinary experiences are also nearby: just a short five-minute walk away, an excellent restaurant awaits you with regional specialties and warm hospitality.
For our younger guests, we have a lovingly furnished playroom that offers entertainment and fun. You'll find various board games for the whole family – for both kids and adults.
In addition, our large garden invites play and discovery in every season. In winter, there’s plenty of space for snowy fun, while in summer it becomes a green oasis for romping and relaxing on the grass.
We’re happy to provide baby toys upon request, so even the littlest ones can enjoy their stay. A high chair is also available to make the stay as pleasant as possible for families.
We place the highest value on making you feel completely at home. Our goal is to make your stay unforgettable. Whether you're looking for special experiences, need help organizing dinner or breakfast, or want housekeeping during your stay – we’ll take care of it.
