Britannia

Hotel is centrally located in Saas Fee, which is probably its best quality. Like so many Swiss properties, it is absolutely spotless, but could really do with an update. The rooms are functional but very dated, and need a refresh. Rooms are small, but bathrooms are tiny, and oddly set up whereby toilet and shower in a (minuscule) ensuite, whilst the sink is in the main room. Soundproofing between rooms is not great at all. Public areas are also a step back in time: chintzy ornaments, figurines and nicknacks everywhere! Breakfast was basic but fine: cereals, bread, hams and cheese; however no fresh pastries or hot option. That said, one doesn't visit Saas Fee to sit in a hotel and criticise the interior decor. It is a great resort with stunning views and plenty of outdoor activities; just don't expect too much from this hotel.

From the first email to reserve the booking right through to our departure Jacques and Lori were outstanding. They made our entire group feel like we were a part of their family for 3 weeks. The food was absolutely incredible, their knowledge of the area and what to do was excellent and the rooms were perfect for what we needed. We will most definitely be booking our group at Hotel Britannia every year that we go to Saas Fee

Stayed at "the Brit" in a single room which was basic but comfortable. Good location in the village, slopes easily walkable. Breakfast is limited but was made to feel welcome by the staff. On the whole if you want somewhere to crash in an otherwise expensive location then this is the hotel for you.

We stayed for only one night, during our trip from Zurich to Italy. My sister said of Saas Fee, "it is like being inside a snow-globe". This hotel was very comfortable, with cute windows and beautiful balconies- a perfect place to relax and overcome jet-lag. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, with even make-your-own soft boiled eggs. The proprietor was quiet, yet welcoming and helpful. WiFi worked well (fee.) The bathroom was small and a bit outdated, but cute. A vague hint of a mildew smell in room.

My sister and I spent a week at the hotel. Jacques and Lori Bigler did everything possible to make our stay comfortable, including arranging for a gluten free diet. Arrivals and departures were easy in this no-car town and space is available for ski equipment in a locked room of the hotel. Meals were wonderful with fresh breakfast buffets and elegant 4/5 course evening meals. In looking around Saas Fee, it would be hard to beat the value for money offered at Hotel Britannia. Rooms are not spacious, but have a balcony view onto the mountains. They were cleaned well by a friendly staff daily. Lots of hot water, a hotel bar and great central location. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to lifts but the city buses help shorten the trip.
