The Cambrian in brief

Our review

Updated on November 19, 2025

The Cambrian is a fantastic haven of peace in the heart of the Swiss Alps, in the village of Adelboden, south of Bern. The breathtaking mountain views (especially from the outdoor pool) and the location close to the ski lifts make it the perfect place for couples seeking adventure and relaxation. The hotel has also been selected by the Michelin Guide.

 

Reservation

We advise you to book your stay at The Cambrian via Booking.com, which often offers free cancellation. Send us a message on Instagram if you go, it would make us super happy.

 

The rooms

The 71 rooms and suites were renovated between 2018 and 2022 by 2 extremely talented Dutch designers: Johan Bouman and Jeroen Wand. The interior design is modern, cocooning and very pleasant.

Some of our favorite rooms and suites:

1 • Deluxe Room • Photo • ☁️
2 • Junior Suite • Photo • 🛋️
3 • Cambrian Suite • Photo • 🪅
4 • Adelboden Suite • Photo • 🏔️
5 • Snowdon Suite • Photo • ❄️

Depending on the room or suite you choose, you'll enjoy the following amenities: king-size bed, bathroom with walk-in shower, minibar, exceptional mountain views and Nespresso coffee machine.

 

The restaurant

For your meals, visit Bryn Williams at the Cambrian. The chef and his student Will Gordon use only the finest local produce. These come from the surrounding mountains, farms, lakes and rivers. The dishes are inspired by the 2 chefs' homelands: the UK, particularly London and Wales. Try the simmered egg with parmesan, mushrooms and Pata Negra: a delight!

 

L'Axe Bar

In the evening, you can also grab a bite to eat or a drink at the Axe Bar. The food is wholesome and the bar well-equipped. A fine selection of local beers and wines. Here you can enjoy a quiet read, or recount your skiing exploits. There's a winter garden with breathtaking views and a sunny terrace. Make yourself comfortable in your armchair by the fireplace in winter, or soak up the sun in summer!

 

The spa

During the day, relax at the spa and release all your tensions. Among the areas at your disposal: indoor and outdoor heated pools, sauna, steam room, gym, relaxation area and massages. Beware of over-relaxation, you might just forget about dinner! The view from the outdoor pool is breathtaking.

 

Location

With 72 lifts and 210 km of pistes, Adelboden-Lenk is one of Switzerland's most extensive ski areas. The hotel is located right next to the lifts. You can also try your hand at snowboarding or tobogganing. All the sports stores in the vicinity rent quality equipment. In summer, there's plenty to do: hiking, cycling, scootering, paragliding or swimming in the nearby lakes.
