I had a lovely three-night stay at Hotel Welschen, despite some ups and downs. The amazing views of the Matterhorn from my room were lovely, but the noisy construction site nearby was a drawback. The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and breakfast was a standout with plenty of fresh options. Overall, it was a good experience for the price I paid, despite not being able to fully enjoy my balcony. 😊🏔️
