Frommer's Review

Peter and Christiane Märkle carry on the century-old family tradition at this large and modernized mountain chalet, which is rated three stars by the government. The present building, with a twin-peaked roof and several irregularly shaped balconies, dates from 1973. The pine-paneled bedrooms are brightly furnished and comfortable, if a bit small. All contain well-kept bathrooms, which for the most part contain tub/shower combinations. The Derby offers some of the best restaurant and bar options in town.

Facilities:
3 restaurants; bar; sauna; room service; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
