You have to merit this wonderful historical hotel and restaurant built in 1888 on the top of a beautiful mountain in the center of the Valais. To reach it by foot, snowshoe or by ski you have the choice between two itineries: the easy one pass by a skislope and then half an hour of walk on a good track... More

This was a great experience. First you need to reach this hotel. But then what a place - what a view. Forget the world and enjoy yourself in a unique setting.

To find a hotel in the alps with unspoild nature, historic background and some 2300 meters above sea level you have to come here. The place is unique. If it wouldn't be a hotel it would be a museum: Two centuries ago British and other distingushed society used to go up there on the back of mules. Also today there... More
