This place was a pleasant surprise. We knew the rooms would have amazing views because that's the reason we booked, but there were so many additional bonuses. The room itself was super spacious and modern and you had access to the shared balcony directly from your room. The gondola's stopped running at 10PM that day but on a regular day in the summer season the last gondola is at 5:30PM, so during sunset you have access to the ridge with little to no crowds. Once the sun was down we had amazing views of the stars right outside our room. The owner was very accommodating and the food was solid. It was totally worth the stay.
We had a little difficulty communicating with staff at this location. Up until this point we had not had any issues communicating with anyone in Switzerland. A majority of the staff spoke very little English so we often had to find the owner to ask our questions or to navigate food. At some point one of the staff just walked into our room without warning and we still don't know what he had come into the room for. Also be aware that the hotel is located beneath the restaurant and patio. Earlier in the day if you were standing on the balcony outside your room, you had people above you talking and drinking. It wasn't an issue for us, but if there had been a bigger crowd or more noise it may have been a problem.

We arrived when it was beginning to snow at the top of the mountain... the ride up was a little chilly but thankful for the covered lift. The hotel was quiet but probably because no one was up there at that time due to the later hour and no visibility. We had dinner at the restaurant and it was pleasant. Woke up early the next morning and hiked to the other lift and rode down. Our stay was great.
Only complaint was lack of visibility at the top-which is obviously not there fault at all. Would have loved to know it was snowing at the first lift and we could have grabbed some extra stuff for our packs. We were told a the 2nd lift it was snowing further up.

The view, the staff are friendly and welcoming, the proximity to hikes and trails in the area, the cleanliness in the rooms. Was a really fun and enjoyable two nights stay.
The "balcony" was for us a terrace - maybe it is due to different use of language that made the misunderstanding. But it did not affect our experience and the wonderful view. Except that some day tourists wondered into the "balcony"/"terrace" and sometimes they peeked into the room due to curiority and that was little bit strange experience. Maybe the management could cordon the "balcony/Terrace" off? OR choose a room without "balcony".

The location is breathtaking. Well worth the hassle of getting our luggage up the chairlifts to spend a night there with fabulous food, cute baby goats, excellent service and the magic of watching the sunset and having the place to ourselves. We enjoyed the breakfast the next morning and felt like VIP’s as no one was up on the mountain for the sunrise.
It’s tricky to get your belongings there and you need to buy the experience pass (x2 days) to get down afterwards. Accomodation was fine with everything you need for a comfortable stay but the service was excellent- the host was amazing and very funny.

The location was out of this world. You are at staying at the top of the mountain with 360 panoramic views of 6 lakes, tons of mountain peaks. The rooms are sparse but we had lovely sling back chairs to sit on our terrace It is not a balcony but really you are looking I over the world., so almost. We went and got the sheepskin available upstairs to line our chairs. Pored some wine and snuggled under fuzzy blankets provided in our room to cosy up in and took in the amazing views outside our room. Dinner was very tasty with no complaints, but the hotel manager Kai made our night. Super funny and entertaining he kept the tables in stitches. What is nice is there are only 8 rooms so very few people staying over night. We had a lovely chat with a family from Australia. Breakfast was fantastic. Fresh croissants, juice etc etc etc. Be aware the rooms are sparse and the shower very tiny. ALSO, BEAWARE YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE A SEPERATE MOUNTAN PEAK EXOERIENCE UP AND DOWN LIFT TICKET OF 75 swiss francs or get a multi use day pass. This is not included in your room fee.
Paying the life ticket. The size of the shower and I am not big.

Amazing location and quite secluded from the rest of the town which is a huge plus. Ski lifts close at approximately 5:30pm which leaves the mountain top all to yourself and other guests of the hotel. Great opportunity to take some amazing photos without the crowds. It should be noted that in order to get to the hotel, you will need to access the ski lifts before 5:30pm and have to do it with the luggage. When you arrive at the funicular, let them know you are staying at the hotel to get a discount on the lifts. Although there was a discount, it cost us $170 euro return that should be considered with the accomodation. Car parking at the bottom was easy and only cost $10 euro for the covered parking. The most impressive part of the location was the views. Watch the sunset one evening and wake up and watch the sunrise the next. Simply breathtaking. Both bedrooms overlooked the view of the lake and mountains. The balcony came off the bedroom which made it unforgettable. Got out on our sun lounges and watched the sunset and stars. The hotel room was super clean and had a bedroom and a sofa bed in the other room. Both comfortable for our family of four. We had two bathrooms with the accomodation which was a huge plus as well. Good connection to wifi for the kids. We booked the half board which was dinner at the hotel which is a must unless you want to bring your own food. Dinner was delicious and the breakfast was good as well. Having the ability to do the Stoos Ridge hike before everyone else is a plus as you can get the mountains top to yourself if you want to capture great photography. Communication with the owner was superb. Very attentive hosts and was always kind and friendly. However, would not allow a late checkout beyond 9:30am. Although it was pricey (approx. $800 euro for one night includes car park and lifts) it was a great experience.

This is a hidden gem on top of the mountains. There are only 9 rooms and after the day hikers leave, it feels like you have the entire mountain to yourself. All rooms have a view of the mountains, and waking up there feels like being in your own little cabin away from the world. The new owner was the most amazing host. He catered to our every need, including bringing out a cake for me when he found out I was there on my birthday. He made us feel like we were at home. I only wish we could have stayed longer in this paradise!!
The only issue is to check the time of the last chair lift up, because if you miss it, you have to hike several hours. When we went, the last chairlift was at 4 pm, which means you need to be in the funicular by 3:30 at the latest.

the hotel is cosy, comfortable and the best part is the location, the views are incredible.The hotel staff are very nice and helpful. The breakfast is very good too.
I had emailed the hotel twice asking for the time of the last cable car, but I didn't receive any response.That was very inconvenient for us as we were visiting Europe for the first time. They shld have clearly communicated the direction, cable car times etc to enable first time visitors, as Fronalpstock is very remote and insufficient information is available on the net

I’m still dreaming about this place..The views were out of this world, the staff was amazing and the food was delicious. But seriously the Views! I’ve stayed at a lot of amazing places but this stay was one of my absolute favorites. Having the mountain to yourself after the chair lifts stop for the night was perfection and waking up to a gorgeous sunrise and an insane cloud inversion was icing on the cake. I cannot wait to book this place again.
Nothing. It was perfect

The location is absolutely amazing, as it can be difficult to get to after the first night I thought 1 night would be enough, but the weather was different on the 2nd day and the whole feeling of the place changed. The manager was extremely helpful and friendly and my 3 kids really enjoyed themselves
Just be prepared to get to it, if you miss the chairlift there is a 1-2 hour hike up to the place. The toilet smell in our room was a bit strong, but I do not think they can do much about it.
