The Giessbach Grand

Well Chris and Clara booked us into the Giessbach Grand Hotel in the Swiss alps...and let me tell you it was VERY GRAND!!! :) :) loved staying there definitely one of the top highlights of my trip. The best place I've stayed in my life... (so far... lols)
Breakfast was included - very flash and dinner time was worth it even if you didn't eat (but of course I ATE!!) - very silver service and when they put the meal in front of you it had the silver lid on it then they waited and then lifted the lid as if to say "Tadaa" - cool if there were 2 people but because we had 5ppl they brought out an entourage of staff and the meals went down at the same time then the lids came all off at the same time (I felt like clapping - but would've embarrased the others as well as myself :p) then they all walked back in a line carrying the silver lids in the air... anyway check out the pics..The waterfall was in view of my room's window!! very cool..
A shot of the hotel from the waterfall track..
The lake that the hotel overlooked. It's a glacial lake thus the unreal blue/green tinge
Another great shot... these were just a few but i thought it was worth sharing... :) we stayed here for 3 nights.
