Just an overall amazing experience with a perfect location. The breakfast every morning is next level. Couldn’t have asked for a better way to start each day with a great selection and delicious cappuccinos. Lastly all the members of the team really made this stay feel special and the food at the restaurant is great.

This was a lovely treat. Friendly staff and I really loved their commitment to the environment. No plastic in the room (glass orange juice bottles, and you can get a glass carafe with sparkling water at the bar no charge, lovely toiletries in the room in large bottles so no waste, and signs at the great breakfast encouraging no food waste). The rooms don’t come with a kettle, but they were happy to provide one for me so I could have tea and coffee in my room. Would also definitely recommend the restaurant/bar downstairs which was very good, including regional specialties.

This hotel was fantastic. They thought of every detail from the welcome chocolates and fruit juice to the bathrobes to the homemade bread, jellies, and yogurt in the morning. The feel was rustic and our room smelled of the wooden floor and beams in the room. There is a sound system if you want to play music. However, the very best thing for me was the sound of the river running next to the hotel. When I say next to, I mean the wall of the hotel is a wall channeling the river through the town. A second, unexpected favorite was the sound of the typical Swiss cow bells from the cows in the hills above the town that we could hear from another window. The breakfast was fantastic. The town was also very nice. I wish we had planned to stay more nights. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely go out of my way to stay there. I would give this place 6 stars if I could.

Great stay and really dog friendly. There is an extra charge for the dog, which is customary, but they donate this charge to a animal charity, which is a lovely touch. I can see why this is number one in the area, it is well positioned, very welcoming and the food was amazing. Will definitely return. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay

Super little boutique hotel in centre of Andermatt. Lovely rooms, great service and a bar full of atmosphere, live music and fun crowd. Walking distance from everywhere and right on the Main Street. Could not recommend it more highly. Check it out.

My two university age children and I recently spent two wonderful nights at The River House in Andermatt. The area is magical - the geographic heart of the Alps and Switzerland, and it truly feels it. We hiked both days that we were in Andermatt, and the vistas after an hour of climbing are breathtaking. The hotel itself is a perfect combination of classic mountain lodging (great beds, thick comforters) and modern chic. Every member of the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful - and if you are lucky, you will bump into the cook's huge, beautiful and incredibly sweet and gentle dog during your visit. We ate dinner in the restaurant / bar each night. The vibe was modern mountain, and the food was excellent, with good options for my vegetarian daughter. Two musts if you stay at The River House. First, leave your window open at night so the adjacent river can lull you to sleep. Second, do the white knuckle drive over the Furka Pass (where, for Bond fans, Goldfinger and 007 dueled in their Aston Martins).

This is a small boutique hotel, only 8 rooms, right on the river next to the central bridge. My room 8 was alone on the top floor (no lifts). Modern wood furniture with beams & some original stone make for a good feeling. My room was spacious with a claw foot tub also in a large area for the bathroom. Everyone here were very delightful. Breakfast had local cheeses, meats, breads and jams. Fresh fruit, cereals, yogurt. Made to order eggs plus Oatmeal. They have their own bar lounge & grill with an outdoor terrace. I ate 2 dinners which were both delicious & reasonable. Late afternoon it was quite nice to sit outside on the terrace with a cold beer. In my room windows closed out the street noise which was muffled by the river. At night no traffic. I liked my windows open. Parking is a short walk away in a private ramp (14€ /day) next to the Coop store for groceries. There are a dozen nice restaurants within minutes of walking. I highly recommend the River House & will hopefully stay again.

We were absolutely delighted with our 2 day stay at this absolutely alluring place. Each room is so beautifully designed and the views are to die for. The warmth of the owners is beyond imagination. They are so accommodating and welcoming msg in fact their entire staff be it in the kitchen or the bar restaurant are just amazing and super hospitable. It was my most memorable stay in Switzerland just loved every bit of this beautiful property. A must must visit they are usually sold out but if you get lucky like I did you must only stay here. If you don’t you must only go to enjoy their warm hospitality at the bar restaurant. I mean I never enjoyed my Apertif and wine more anywhere but at The River House
