Berghotel Faulhorn

Lovely restaurant on top of faulhorn, we popped in for a drink and enjoyed the view. Staff were really lovely. Quite expensive considering coffee was instant and coke was not cold but still a nice experience after a hard uphill

We hiked from the First chairlift station to the Berghotel Faulhorn for a quick lunch in early September. The hike is quite steep from the Bachsee lake, but certainly worth it. Service at the resturant was excellent, food was very good considering you're at the literal top of a mountain, and views were stunning in every direction. It was such a delight to find such hospitality at this elevation!

I felt like I had to leave a review after seeing some of the negative ones — my experience here was wonderful! After hiking up, I was warmly greeted and given all the info I needed. Dinner and breakfast were included, with assigned tables that made it easy to meet new people and share a meal together. Then it’s off to your cozy hostel-style bed before waking up to one of the most stunning sunrises in the Bernese Oberland. The food and service were both great. Yes, charging your phone costs 1 CHF, but considering how remote this place is, I was amazed they even have power, restrooms, a kitchen, and a washroom at all. I’d definitely recommend Berghotel Faulhorn and would happily stay again. Thank you for making my trip so memorable!

I loved my stay in one of the dorms, the bunks were very comfortable and food was delicious. Everyone was very friendly, and the location is of course stunning. Watching the sunrise over the valley was magnificent. Fun to feel part of the region's history.

We had a great stay! Rooms are rustic and quaint. No central heat but we were provided with hot water bottles and warm blankets. We stayed warm on a night when it snowed! Water is for washing and there are water bottles for purchase for drinking. Dinner was warm and very good! Views alone are worth 5 stars!

I had a lunch here on a warm and sunny day, Rösti and a couple of alcohol free beers. The meal was delicious, view fantastic, two hostesses quite welcoming. PS: on the top of drinks card they list all the snow capped peaks you see in front of you.

**Bring enough water for return to First by yourself. Great view. Tasty food. People with lower review should take into account that the restaurant operates at 2670m. Some menu was not available but because of the end of the hiking season. Very good coffee :)

This is the highest mountain inn in Europe, so very old and historic. We have stayed in many mountain huts over the years and were prepared for only cold water sinks due to its mountain top location in a limestone area. However, our big surprise was that our room was separating from the hallway so it felt like a funhouse— legs of the furniture up on blocks of varying heights. Toilets down the hall, of course, clean linens provided, and good dinner. A typical mountain hut with grand views, but needing an influx of cash.
