We stayed here in October 2012. Brig itself is a lovely town and the hotel has a friendly atmosphere with clean rooms. The rooms are reasonably basic but clean and comfortable. There are no tea and coffee making facilities, which would be a great addition. Parking is not available at the hotel but next door in the park house. Our... More

Stayed here with an organised trip. Rooms are clean and have all the usual facilities. But no tea or coffee making facilities. good views from either front or rear facing rooms with balconies. Bar area is reasonable.Prices are in line with other venues in the area. The food we ate in the evening and at breakfast was nice enough. Wi-Fi... More

We recently stayed here for four nights as part of our Great Rail Journeys holiday. We were speedily checked in and were very pleased with our 3rd floor room at the back with views of the snow clad mountain in the distance. Apart from a very comfortable bed with soft pillows the spotless room had two small armchairs facing a... More

This is a comfortable hotel at the top end of the little town of Brig, railway station at the bottom of the town and views of the mountains from the top. Bedrooms have been recently refurbished. We were on a Great Railway Journeys tour so didn't have the chance to try the hotel restaurant but rather had a set meal... More

I have just returned from my sixth stay at the Hotel Simplon. It is my favourite hotel in this part of Switzerland. I have had the same room for the past five years. I have found it very comfortable and adequate for my needs. The room is situated on second floor at the front overlooking the square. The food was... More

About 5 minutes walk from the railway station in this delightful little town the Simplon is situated on the corner of a wide street that sees no private vehicles. It has good management and staff. Breakfasts were very good ‘continental style’. The food for dinner was generally good but the vegetarians found the offer very poor with little apparent appreciation... More

We checked into Hotel Simplon and went out to wander around the town. When we returned we suddenly realised that although some of our things were in the room, our suitcase, small bags and other items were missing. While my husband hurried downstairs to report the theft, I sat shaking on the bed, feeling sick, trying to remember everything that... More

stayed at this hotel for four nights and although the rooms were reasonable the staff were appalling. Sullen to the point of being outright rude, an example was the clearing of tables outside the hotel at 10.30pm, all the time glaring at anyone who was sitting there enjoying a drink in the warmth of the evening. Would not stay there... More

A reasonable hotel in a very quiet location within the town. It was comfortable but lacking in quality of food & indifference from the staff. Cleanliness & room quality was good but room was stiflingly hot. Would return but would seek a better alternative.
