Culinary Delight

“The dining experience at Riffelhaus 1853 was really good. On Valentine's Day, the menu was exquisite, with white roots soup and a delectable starter with trout and caviar. Each dish, including the aubergine with truffle and emmental, was light yet delicious. The fine view of the Matterhorn while dining added to the overall experience.” view full review

Unmatched Spa Experience

“As a spa lover, I was blown away by Riffelhaus' Wellness Center. Their outdoor jacuzzi located at approximately 2582 meters offers amazing views of the Matterhorn-it's truly the most beautiful hot tub in the area. The large dry sauna, with its fine glass view of the Alps, made relaxation feel otherworldly.” view full review

Modern Alpine Charm

“Staying in a room at Riffelhaus 1853 was a unique delight. The blend of modern amenities with alpine style gave a cozy yet stylish atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the view from room 102, where I witnessed heartwarming sunrises over the Matterhorn-it's a memory I will cherish forever.” view full review
