The Saas Valley's climate at 1550 meters elevates this destination, offering easy access to the surrounding 4,000-meter peaks. Guests benefit from the Saastalcard, providing free bus transportation throughout the valley and cable car access during summer.

The hotel offers a half-board option featuring a 3-4 course dinner menu each evening. Local delicacies grace the dinner table, ensuring variety through different dishes prepared each night.
Rooms
Rooms at Pension Heino all feature ensuite bathrooms and most include a private balcony with views of the surrounding mountains. Each stay includes the comfort of new big box spring mattresses to ensure restful nights. The hotel offers both single and multiple occupancy configurations to cater to different guest needs.
Winter and Summer Sports
The smaller, family-friendly ski area of Hohsaas ranges from 1550 to 3100 meters, providing snow-sure conditions throughout the winter. Queuing is minimal thanks to high transport capacities at the lifts, allowing for peaceful skiing experiences. In summer, guests can explore hiking trails and via ferrata routes surrounded by stunning alpine scenery.
Transportation
Reaching Pension Heino is convenient via both public transport and car. The hotel is easily accessible from the new NEAT-tunnel, connecting Visp to major Swiss cities. For those arriving by car, scenic alpine routes lead to Saas-Grund directly from Visp.

“Pension Heino stands out as a family-run guesthouse where Golda, the owner, welcomes guests with warmth. The location provides easy access to both the Hohsaas cableway and the bus to Saas-Fee. I think the Saastal Card, granting free access to lifts and buses, is a great perk for exploring the region.”
