Our take
Hotel Crystal is a sound Engelberg base for families and couples who want to walk to the Titlis cable car, five minutes away, instead of waiting for a bus. The wellness area is modest, with a sauna and a steam bath, and there is a restaurant and ski storage on site. Some rooms have private balconies with mountain views, so ask for one when booking. Guests rate it 8.9 from 524 reviews, a good score for a three-star. I would choose it for location and value rather than for a pool or a large spa.
- Head to the wellness area after your last run; the sauna and steam bath are perfect for thawing out
- Book a room with a private balcony to enjoy the views of Titlis or Brunni mountains
- Make use of the ski storage facilities to keep your gear secure and out of the way
Why we love it

Why guests love itHotel Crystal is about a five-minute walk from the Titlis cable car, close enough that the kids managed it in boots without fuss. Ski storage made the daily routine simple, and we were lucky to get a room with a private balcony and mountain views. After skiing, the sauna and steam bath in the wellness area were exactly what we needed, and dinner at the restaurant saved us going out again. Comfortable and convenient.
