I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this small family run hotel. It is fair to say that the rooms are a little time worn; that said, the friendly welcome and excellent service provided by Hans, Lisa, and their team more than compensated for that. The dining experience was memorable in that I enjoyed every meal that was served, and was always offered seconds! I particularly enjoyed the fish, caught from the lake below the hotel. The lake itself, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, provides calming views from the dining room windows. The village of Leissigen is very quiet, but has a well-stocked shop, close to the hotel, providing much of what a tourist may require. Also nearby is a railway station with regular services into Interlaken, Spiez, and Thun with connections serving the region and the mountain railways - so whether you would like to visit Basel or go the the top of the Jungfrau there is a readily available service.

Hotel is run by a small staff but each of them is super professional and efficient in what they do. Special requests for kid food were entertained with the best they could do for us. The view from room and restaurant of the lake and the cozy little village is a treat to eyes. Just wish that the rooms could be a little bigger

We had a great stay at hotel Kreuz, which is a short walk from the Leissing Train Station (several buses come to Leissing via Thun or Interlaken). The hotel was clean if a bit older but the staff was very helpful and friendly and breakfast was great.

There is a restaurant in the hotel for dinner, which was nice, but it is really the only dinner choice in Leissing. We ended up having dinner one evening in Thun and one evening in Interlaken, where there are more choices. It was a short - maybe 10 minute bus ride from Interlaken and maybe 20 minutes from Thun. We had Swiss Rail Pass so the fare wasn't an issue. Though in the evening there is only one bus an hour so you need to keep an eye on your watch to catch it else you will be an hour delayed.
