Description
Chalet Aquila 8 is a conveniently located high-end 3 bedroom vacation apartment with loft perfectly positioned for ski-in / ski-out and mountain hiking trails. Located in the family-friendly “car-free” village of Wengen with a ski slope right outside and a short ski to the village cable car station, the mountains and ski areas are truly on your doorstep! It’s also just a 300m walk to the train station or nearest supermarket.
This top-floor apartment sleeps up to 8 people, has 3 bedrooms, 1 double with king sized bed and 2 twin bedrooms plus 2 sofa beds in the loft / gallery… a cosy hideaway for the kids! All beds are European sizes. It has 1 family bathroom with bath shower and WC, and 2 en-suite bathrooms each with bath, shower and WC.
This new, high-end top floor apartment at Chalet Aquila is an extremely appealing and convenient option for central accommodation in Wengen. A ski-in / ski-out property, it is located at the top of the village ski slope, yet is only steps away from restaurants and the train station or cable car.
The décor is warm and inviting, and the use of light wood finishes throughout makes the space feel bright and open. A fireplace, comfortable furnishings, free Wi-Fi and TV create a friendly casual place for relaxing and entertaining. When not dining in the nearby restaurants, the kitchen is well equipped for all your cooking needs, while dining al fresco on the south-facing balcony is a must, and gives you a chance to take in the stunning mountain vistas!
And to ease sore muscles after a long day on the slopes, the chalet has a shared sauna. Chalet Aquila 8 is a perfect choice for guests who want stylish comfort in a high-end accommodation, and ultra-convenient access to all the activities and amenities Wengen has to offer!
There is ski and boot storage room in the basement along with washing and drying machines.

Our family of 4 vacation was excellent starting with the booking process until the day we left. The Penthouse was more than expected and our host, Julie, was exceptionally helpful. Wengen and the surrounding areas were absolutely stunning!!

It has everything we need and works very well for our family, especially now the children are growing up. It's just a lovely space, and the views are great. Hope we can return again!

A few extra items in the kitchen might be useful, such as some pyrex bowls and jugs, and baking dishes.

Great luminous and large apartment next to the slopes and not far from the city center. We stayed already many times in Wengen but were for the first time in Aquila 8. We were so satisfied that we already consider to book it again next year.

We have recently returned from our fantastic Spring ski trip to Wengen. This apartment is superb. Loads of room, extremely well furnished and kitted out. Our group (2 families with kids under 8) thought it was the perfect home from home for the week. All mod cons and fully (and I mean fully) equipped so we could easily and enjoyably self-cater when we chose not to dine out. Truly ski in-ski out as the home run and nursery slope run past the door. Perfect at the beginning and end of the day, especially with young kids. Wengen itself is magical. The views are to die for, the village attractive and compact, friendly and (by Swiss standards) not overly expensive. For skiers of all abilities the area is great and easily accesible whether by trainthe cable car, both of which are only a short ski/walk from the apartment. I simply cannot fault the apartmentWengen and look forward to returning next year.

This apartment is very comfortable. Julie and her team are perfect in the organization, always ready to answer any question you may have. We would recommend this apartment for 6 people.

Chalet Aquila 8 was perfect for our stay in Wengen. We researched many homes before booking Aquila 8. What we like most about this home was the space for our family to enjoy the spectacular views. We liked the open floor plan and unique loft area for the kids.
The home was in perfect order and offered many amenities to make us feel at home. The view from the balconies was excellent and we were treated to goats and sheep with their bells in the adjacent yard. It made for great entertainment as we watched a goat that continually escaped and tried to get back in the yard! Wengen is our favorite place to stay in the Alps and this property allows for easy at-home cooking if you wish. We cooked a few meals and brought back pizza one night from the nearby Caprice Hotel. After a hard day of hiking, it was great to relax on the balcony and have a drink overlooking the valley or up to the Jungfrau. We were blessed with perfect weather, which made the Chalet even more enjoyable. Plan to be back in the future, perhaps to ski. |
