Naturpark Pfyn-Finges - The family-run Hotel-Restaurant Flaschen is located directly at the Torrent valley station between Albinen and Leukerbad, next to skiing and hiking areas. Regional cuisine, a sunny terrace and quiet rooms invite you to relax.

The family-run Hotel-Restaurant Flaschen is located right at the lower station of the Torrent cable car, between Albinen and Leukerbad, in the heart of ski and hiking areas – the perfect spot for nature lovers, active guests, and families. The lovingly decorated double and family rooms offer wonderful views of the Valais Alps and guarantee peaceful nights in a tranquil setting. Its privileged location amidst pristine nature invites you to enjoy hiking, cycling, skiing, and many other outdoor activities.

In the restaurant, the chef personally delights you with creative regional and seasonal specialties, freshly prepared with care. Following the principles of the "Fait Maison" label, we make as many dishes as possible ourselves – from salad dressings to desserts.
The spacious sunny terrace is perfect for relaxing, while children can have fun on the playground.
Enjoy a delicious à la carte meal or, as a hotel guest, a 4-course surprise menu that changes daily. For special occasions such as family celebrations, weddings, or class reunions, we are happy to create a personalized menu. Smaller groups will appreciate the cozy atmosphere of our «Albinerstubu».

Experience genuine hospitality, attentive service, and unforgettable moments at Hotel-Restaurant Flaschen – and discover the beauty of the Pfyn-Finges region.

We offer disability access only in summer, as in winter the parking area can only be reached via stairs. The hotel is the ideal starting point for ski days with ski-in and ski-out access, as well as for biking and hiking tours. The playground and the surrounding nature provide plenty of space for curious children to explore and enjoy unforgettable outdoor adventures.
