Characteristic flair and spectacular gardens
Excellent location with spectacular views. The flower and herbs gardens are absolutely amazing and worth visiting. The historic hotel is pretty much authenic, both regarding decoration and amenities. Great, if you like it.

Mountain top hotel
The view was spectacular because the hotel is on a mountain top. They gave us bath robes and herbal shampoo that smelled refreshing! The hotel doesnt have a direct rout by car , you should read hotels.com checkin guidlines and use the mountain train. All paid for.

Unique and beautiful place to stay
Had a wonderful stay at the Schatzalp, which is set in a stunning location with an impeccable garden and miles of hiking trails right out the front door. The building is a lovely, fading, historic hotel. Some reviewers complained about the fact that the rooms are in need of renovation - true, it's not up-to-date, but for me, that added to the charm and beauty of staying here. Truly a unique experience that I won't forget.

Staying on the Magic Mountain
Stayed at the Schatzalp for a week during a (off season) conference. It was great to be up out of town, up the funicular, on the Magic Mountain, in an old school hotel. No TV in the room, big open-able windows looking out onto the mountains, and first class paths heading up (also down, left and right) further into the hills. On the practical side, the breakfast and WiFi were also excellent.

Wonderful Hotel with Historical charm
For those who do not define comfort by flat screen TVs and minibars this is a wonderful hotel. The hotel is part way up the mountain (it is the converted sanatorium of Thomas Mann’s Magic Mountain). The view is spectacular and the hotel historic. Many things are dated but that is part of what I love about the place. You can go on lovely walks and ski in the winter just outside the hotel. The rooms vary in size but the superior rooms with balconies are very spacious (the bathrooms are a bit on the smaller size).

A real life Christmas village scene in winter
Do not miss this hotel if you want the one of a kind experience of the historical schatzalp sanitoriums with its surrounding hills and trails for sledding and hiking or skiing. You are up above the town in your own magic mountain setting. Make sure to request the room with the balcony so you can lounge in the provided robes with a glass of gluhewine or hot chocolate with baileys and watch the woods and the tiny town below.

Historic hotel in Swiss Alps
Lovely historic horltel built around 1900 and a previous TB Sanitorium. Centrally located in Davis and accessed by a funicular railway which is free for hotel guests. Mountain view separate restaurant provide info excellent alpine food. bear in mind the first train in the morning is at 7:30 and whilst there is a walking route down, this is slippy and dark during the winter and personally not recommended at that time. Hotel staff lovely and you can use the gym and swimming pool facilities at their sister hotel in town just at the bottom of the funicular railway.

Great unusual hotel!
Classic Swiss hotel in a fantastic unique location. Cool bar, great terrace, taking the funicular up and down is a novelty and not too much inconvenience - every 15 mins during the day and from 7pm every 30 mins till 2am. Rooms are modest but clean and comfortable and have incredible views from the terrace.

First time back at this old favourite for many years. Sadly the lack of investment is showing and it is quite shabby in the public areas and the bedrooms are in urgent need of an upgrade. Nothing can take away from the location though.

A wonderful slice of history atop a mountain
I stayed here for just 24 hours in order to rest and get some work cleared. This hotel is a rarity in a world which measures hotel 'excellence' very uniformly (a certain style with facilities provided in a certain way). What I mean is that this hotel has its very own, unique character. A former TB sanatorium, the clocks used to organise patients' days still illuminate the corridors. The original sinks still feature in the en suite bathrooms. The same heating system is used, the lifts are unchanged. Bookcases containing volumes once lent to patients wanting to while away the months on end up in the mountains in the hope of recovery, line the corridors of the third floor. The former hospital ward on the second floor still boasts the call system. The building is frozen in time yet extremely comfortable. The combined effect of this is one that is ultimately very relaxing; you forget the hustle and bustle and demands of life 'down below'. Deliciously prepared food, a vast space and quiet spacious rooms help the process. And, if the temptations of life down below become too much, excellent free wifi is available across the site. And, if you're determined to measure the hotel through a modern prism, a wonderful new sauna/spa area can be found on the ground floor. I couldn't recommend this place more highly and suggest you go as this space does not do it justice!

Frosty Reception
When I arrived at reception after two flights and a three-hour train journey followed by an interesting funicular ascent, I was met with a very 'frosty' reception and told in a very rude manner that despite my reservation they didn't have a room for me and that I had to go back down to Davos Town and stay at the Hotel Europe which I am sure is a very pleasant hotel but ISNT the BergHotel. I protested very vigorously and after some altercation was grudgingly told that I could stay that night but that they weer full the next day. I contacted reception the next day and they had obviisly had time to rehink this and they told me I could stay but this all left a very sour taste .

Unique quirky hotel
The building is a lovely piece of history in a quiet location with great views from above the town. We came from England for a weekend of skiing and were delighted to find our stay included a pass for the hotel's own private ski area which enabled us the get straight out onto the snow even though we arrived at around 2pm. The only down side is you have to allow time to get the funicular railway to & from the hotel, and use the local bus service if you don t want to walk to the main jacobshorn ski lift next to the train station in ski boots - about 5 minutes in normal footwear. Excellent skiing for intermediates & advanced. Eating out expensive - double English prices, but fresh food in supermarkets is more reasonable. Transfer via train from zurich very efficient and enjoyable as the scenery is breath taking.

Mountain Jewel
An outstanding spot to start your tour of the mountains: pleasant hotel, somewhat run-down, but with tons of genuine charm and comfort. Good service, excellent breakfast and facillities, staff is attentive and organizes programs every Wednesday should you need suggestions how to spend time. Too nice to miss. Bathrooms fully functional, could do with a refurbishing to 21-century. Annoyingly, no TV in the room: poor choice, isolation from news should be by choice.

Fabulous location
The view from the front of the hotel was fantastic, especially having arrived from a flat desert environment. Access from Davos Platz is only via the funicular railway, however, the service runs regularly and with typical Swiss efficiency. The hotel was clean, the staff friendly and helpful. Its not 5* and so no TV in the room, which is sometimes not a bad thing, but there is good wifi internet throughout the hotel. I definitely plan to stay again, and will encourage friends and acquaintances to do the same.

Paradise on the Earth!
Had a great stay at this charming Belle Epoque hotel, an ex-Sanitarium dating back to 1900-ish. Excellent view of the valley below and the mountains across from the front garden. To wake up to that view, try to book a Room with Balcony (south facing side) rather than a room with mountain view (north facing side). Excellent food even for vegetarians and ample range in buffet breakfast. Arriving in Davos, go to Schatzalp Seilbahn on the Promenade which gives direct access to the hotel at the top (no access for driving up but it is possible to walk up on a wide dirt path if you have legs for climbing up - I walked down next morning and it was fun 45mins). Cable car ticket is included free of charge in the room cost that means unlimited up and down trips between the hotel and the town (Davos Platz Promenade). Finding the logistics of car parking was a bit of guess work which became clearer when asked at Schatzalp Seilbahn ticket office: They keep a list of room bookings and will give you a parking permit for Hotel Europe car parking 100m down the Promenade on the right hand side). Come ready to the ticket office with 50CHF as deposit for parking and cablecar pass. The hotel will issue the contactless pass for the cable car when checking in. They also eventually bill you for parking at 20CHF per day. Promenade is a one-way road (except for buses) so you have to access it from the East side and then drive West. Alles klaar and Swiss efficiency when you have done it once.

Despite the hotel being a bit old and run down in some areas the hotel deal we received offered excellent value for money. The location of the hotel is fantastic and many features of the hotel are still excellent. I would recommend this to a family looking for a nice relaxing alpine stay.

Great sledding destination!
This hotel is quite charming in its public spaces with a lovely fireplace and comfortable sofas and chairs to enjoy the evening listening to live music. The outdoor "Beach" for snacks and drinks offers a terrific view. The rooms are spacious but not luxurious. Comfortable and adequate. No TV in rooms, but wi-fi. The big draw for us were the two excellent, well-groomed sledding runs from just steps outside the door. Breakfast buffet offered a good selection of hot and cold choices. Could have used more local info (or ANY info) in the room.

Nice, but...
We went in the summer, FYI. Having to take the train up and down is fun, though inconvenient. Close to hiking trails and an absolutely fantastic view. The only real problem with the place is that it's so run down. Looks like there hasn't been any real maintenance done in 30 years. The staff is very helpful and the breakfast was great. Also, parking is 20 CHF a day, which they don't tell you.

Hotel Schatzalp - step back in time
I spent 4 nights at the Schatzalp in July 2010 for the Swiss Alpine Marathon. Perched on the hills above Davos, you need to take a funicular railway to the hotel. It's a short trip, from the middle of town and the railway goes every 15 minutes. The hotel is a beautiful old classic and although it is a little tired in some places it retains many original features and much of it's charm for doing so. The views are spectacular - over the town and across the valley - from the rooms at the front. While my room wasn't luxurious it was clean, tidy and more than large enough. It also had a large terrace with table and sun loungers. The room was decorated with traditional wood panelling and it's good that this hasn't been renovated over. The bathroom is small but has s good, powerful shower. There is no TV (a good thing, there is one in the bar) and free wifi. The staff were superb - very friendly and accommodating. I had a great time at the Schatzalp and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

You can't ski-in and ski-out.
The hotel has character, the bedrooms are spacious, the staff helpful and the public rooms elegant. However, since we previously stayed there, it has become impossible to ski from the Shatzalp to the Davos ski pistes. This means that you have to go down on the funicular railway and then catch a bus to the Parsenn funicular. This is a serious inconvience and would cause us not to return.

Back to the past
This is a very special hotel. It is like going back in the past. We felt the atmosphere of what it was like 100 years ago. Not a place for party but much more for relaxing. The only activity that I did was taking a sauna after ski It is classy service in an old hotel. The hotel is quiet and up in the mountain with great view.

A historical hotel 100 years old - but should have been since then renovated
The setting of this beautiful, historical hotel from more than 100 years old is great, and has direct access to a smallish private skiing area, which actually turned out to be very nice, as there were not so many people skiing. Beautiful views over Davos. But the hotel definetely and deperately would need renovation, now I am not surpriced why a hotel in famous Davos and with this great location was so inexpensive. Rooms were very basic and the hotel services, such as sauna and pool had seen their best times (some 50 years ago). Breakfast was good and the lobby areas etc looked nice and historical, but I certainly would not come here for a holiday again. The service was lousy, seemed as all personnel were trainees (probably true). The elevator did not work (I stayed in 3rd floor, so with the ski boots it is a challange), and there was no note of this on the door of the elevator and you just stand there and wonder why does the lift not come while several hotel personnel walkds by and says nothing. Overall the service was really unprofessional. If the hotel undergoes a renovation, with this location it could be luxury hotel.

Interesting location
Schatzalp is up a 3-min cog railway ride from downtown Davos, and that's the only way to get there other than a 1-h hike. The cog only runs from 8 am to 11 pm, every 15 min until 7 pm and then every 30 min, so you have to arrange your schedule accordingly! On the other hand, there are plenty of hiking options up the mountain that start from the hotel doorstep. The hotel is an old sanatorium and has a grand, slightly faded look which is kind of nice. Rooms are comfortable and remarkably quiet (no cars!). Staff is nice, breakfast buffet (included in room rate) is great. There's a room rate that includes dinner but I don't recommend it - dinner up there seems like an elegant but lonely experience, better take the cog downtown. The Panorama downtown has a really nice buffet of Swiss specialties - pile up your plate for 20 CHF. Best deal in town.

Wir bedauern sehr, dass Sie von unseren Dienstleistungen enttäuscht wurden. Umso mehr ist es uns ein echtes Bedürfnis, auf Ihre Anregungen einzugehen. Die Erhaltung des Zauberbergs ist unserem Investor ein grosses Anliegen, daher wurden bereits umfangreiche Investitionen getätigt, wie z.B. die komplette Renovierung der Schatzalpbahn, die Wiedereröffnung unseren Skigebiets "Slow Mountain", den Bau eines komplett neuen Wellnessbereiches sowie die stetige Renovierung unserer 93 Zimmer im Haus, nur um einige wenige Beispiele zu nennen. Sie sehen also, wir sind dran. Der Punkt ist, leider sieht man von aussen nicht alles, was im Inneren unverzichtbar ist. Sehr geehrte/r..., wir möchten Sie nicht belehren, vielmehr möchten wir Sie für uns gewinnen. Denn ohne unsere treuen Schatzalp Gäste wären die ständigen Investitionen wohl zum scheitern verurteilt. Wir wären sehr froh gewesen, wenn Sie uns Ihr Unbehagen bereits bei Ihrem Aufenthalt mitgeteilt hätten.
