“This family-run chalet in Lenk offers immediate access to the slopes and a refreshing commitment to regional experiences. I think the mountain views and garden especially suit families looking for an authentic alpine escape. While some may find the standard rooms compact, the hotel's location, wellness area, and inclusive Simmental Card make it a worthwhile base.”
