Wonderful!

Beyond expectations!!!!!!
Wonderful old chalet with so much character, the beautiful on-line pictures don't do it justice after stepping foot on the property. Well supplied and maintained. Very comfortable accommodations with lots of room. Comfortable bedding for a great night's sleep, which isn't always easy to achieve away from home. It's an easy drive to a variety of interesting areas. Must have a vehicle as this house is up a winding mountain road with beautiful scenery.
Olivier was very friendly and easy to communicate with . Norbert was also very nice and tried to communicate with the 4 of us (2 couples), however, we had a little bit of a communication gap with him as he only spoke French to us and 3 out of the 4 of us knew very minimal French (our bad, not his). Even though he could not speak to us in English, he was able to recommend taking a drive to Gruyere by communicating to us on our map. We took his advise and had a great time. Also spent time in charming Montreux. The 4 of us had the best time and highly recommend this fabulous chalet.
Picture Perfect!
Oliver was great to work with - responded quickly and gave us great tips about the area before our arrival and called to check on us the day we arrived.
This was our first stop on a 18 day vacation - we worried that the rest of our trip would be a let down because our time in Plans Sur Bex was so perfect!!. When I mentioned to Oliver that we were interested in seeing a Desalpe, he told us it was our lucky day, the Desalpe would go right by the chateau. I enjoyed it so much I had tears in my eyes!!! We also made an easy drive to Visp and took the train to Zermatt. Our only problem was the drizzle & clouds........but no one can control that!
The beds were comfortable, the shower upstairs was wonderful. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed making our own breakfast every morning before we set out to see the beautiful country.
just a heads up - some low ceilings........didn't bother me, I'm short, but the two men over 6 ft did bump their heads a time or two.
I would love to go back to this area one day and would definitely want to spend more time at this authentic chalet. Thanks Oliver and Norbert for your hospitality!
Idyllic, scenic, quiet, comfortable, authentic
Our family--and friends who also joined us--so enjoyed our week in Chalet Tanner. It was a perfect start to our travels in Switzerland, thus we were spoiled for the rest of our trip! Nothing else could quite compare with the historic chalet, modernized nicely while also keeping the integrity of the historic home. And the easy access to hikes, the town, restaurants was so nice. We long enjoy remembering such a special week at Chalet Tanner. And thank you to Norbert for charming us as much as the chalet itself!
Amazing Chalet! The ultimate Swiss experience!
My family of 8 stayed here over the Christmas holiday. It was a prefect retreat for us, and is close to so many incredible sites. The chalet was our home base for visiting Zermatt (and seeing the Matterhorn), as well as exploring the Lake Geneva area (Montreux, Lausanne, and other smaller cities). The little town it is situated in is so cute and picturesque. Olivier was great to work with, and made the whole process so easy. The chalet stayed warm 24/7 as they had a lovely heater going that heated up the house. Couldn't recommend it more!
Excellent séjour !
Calme, nature, charme.
Chalet cosy, typique dans un environnement préservé. Propriétaire très attentif et disponible.
Un havre de paix, une décoration de goût, un accueil inoubliable!
Ce chalet est un endroit absolument délicieux. Il est vieux de 300 ans et l'intérieur à été refait avec un goût et un charme incroyable. Tout es juste parfait. Le village ainsi que toute la région est magnifique, très calme et l'ambiance est baignée par les bruits de l'Avançon qui coule a quelques mètres de la. Le chalet est extrêmement bien aménagé, très confortable, wi fi impeccable, cheminée, cuisinière de luxe, chambres avec velux et peaux de lapin, salle de bain avec bain turc! sans oublier le légendaire Norbert, qui nous accueil, fait du feu pour s'assurer de notre bien-être et compte les histoires de la région! Un endroit extraordinaire que nous recommandons vivement a tout épicurien, amoureux de la nature et des belles choses. Un grand merci encore a la famille Reymond.
