    Breakfast is very basic. Would be nice to have little bit more options and at least make sure there is yoghurt every day.

    Great location and very convenient for anyone wanting to enjoy the slopes as much as possible. Rooms are not luxurious but spacious and offer all you need. Note that it isn't a standard hotel but the restaurant around a good and being on the top of the mountain in a small, remote and quiet little town is a cool experience

    No negative comments.

    Alpenlodge Kuhboden is located in the building of the cable car from Fiesch. You can leave the car on the parking of the cable car. It is therefore very suitably located if you have some luggage. From the rooms at the valleyside you have beautiful views of the valley, although in some rooms the windows are rather high. The rooms are comfortable. The breakfast is good, but does not provide much options. The lodge does not serve dinner, but several options are nearby.

    Excellent for staying overnight for hiking or skying.

    People who expect a room with balcony or beautiful mountain sight micht be disappointed. Some nighttime noise from the cable car transporting the Sunrise watching guests to the top - at 5 am. But not dramatic.

    This is a place where you want a bed in a warm room, to stay overnight. I was there for hinking in Summer. Restaurants available in the vicinity (in Winter: right below). Location IN the building block of the middle station of the cablecar. Self service bar available on the floor.

    A bit more expensive than we'd have liked, but it must cost a lot to run a hotel half way up a mountain, so for one night it was worth the money.

    It was fun going up to the hotel by cable car and arriving to find cows all around (including one which tried to get into the hotel). Rooms were nice and modern with a reasonable number of electric sockets which could be used with standard European plugs. Good choice for breakfast.

    Nothing really. It was perfectly positioned to hike the Panaorama Trail.

    Breakfast was awesome although not available until 9 am which may be a little late for a hiking destination.

    A bit basic rooms but totally ok for the price. Quiet in general but loud cowbells under the windows in the early morning. To be expected though and atmospheric, I didn’t mind it. One point more to do with booking.com app: I payed more at the end than the app has shown because the app hadn’t done the payment (maybe my fault as I didn’t realise I had to do another click at the bottom once our stay started. Assumed that the booking was done. Then I had to pay with card at the checkout and it was about €40 more with the exchange rate.

    Quick to reach from the valley. Good breakfast and helpful friendly staff.

    Great value place to stay for exploring the Aletsch Arena

    Cool little place for easy access to hiking in the Aletsch Arena. The rooms are quite small and the views from the Eggishorn side are quite poor, but the easy access to terrain is great. The restaurant that is part of the lodge is great for breakfast and lunch, but closes at 17:00 which is quite early for dinner so you have to make plans to eat elsewhere. Staff were helpful and accommodating for check in past open hours. Fiescheralp feels like a ghost town near sunset as there are only about 3 occupied hotels open for the season. If you enjoy peace and quite this is the perfect place to stay for a few days.

    The room temperature is way too hot. It was impossible to sleep, we had to open a window which is quite a paradox on the mountain in the middle of winter and surrounded by snow.

    Location is super, check in process is smooth. Room very simple but has everything one might need.

    It reminded me of university dorm rooms — utilitarian. It is not a luxurious hotel but it is good if all you plan to do is sleep in the room.

    A simple, clean place to stay overnight on the mountainside in Fiescheralp. Christian the manager was very kind and carried my heavy suitcase to and from my room as it was all stairs to get to the rooms.
