Search hotels in Flims

Flims is a lovely and not so small village in the mountains, only 1.5 hours or so from Zurich, accessible by car or bus (train to Chur, then Postbus, very easy). It has grown and developed since my first visit in 2003, now has a cinema/hotel/mall complex built over the river, and a lot more houses and flats, but retains much of its flavour. Very easy to walk aroundm fantastic hiking, biking trails, good food, great for a weekend away from the city or a week of adventures, with two gorgeous lakes!

High quality resort but also quite expensive. The ski area had WiFi over much of the area which was very useful if you have a non-GSM phone (AT&T). INSIDE LAXX app very useful on the phone - lets you buy lift passes online, then reads a code from the phone and issues a card. Card can be read from your left hand trouser pocket by the gates - Unless you have other cards like your hotel card with it!

A very comfortable stay with beautiful interiors. Great for skiing, snowboarding and for those who do not like these activities, you can watch a movie in the hotel cinema, go to any of there restaurants, the spa or relax with a drink at the bar. Very convenient.

I loved everything about Flims. The shuttle bus was great and courtesy of the hotels we stayed in. It made exploring very easy. Getting to Flims from Zurich on a train-bus combo was very easy too. We just made the mistake of taking a train direct from the airport to Chur, which takes longer and costs more than going via Zurich HB. Flims felt like a winter wonderland from the story books. It was my first time in the snow and I enjoyed every moment. Of course having appropriate clothing helped with keeping warm. We went on a fun mountain walk (I'd recomend proper snow boots for this. It certainly helped us navigate the slippery bits) The views were gorgeous! Went up to Lake Cauma which was partly frozen. Funds allowing, I would go back in a heartbeat!

My husband was born in Flims and we visited with family for three weeks. We took the lift to Narauss and to Foppa. Spent an afternoon at Cauma See and drove up and down winding roads through the mountains and tunnels.We had beautiful sunny warm days and the occassional rainy day where we went either to Sargans or Ilanz to shopping mall and enjoyed their amazing coffee and deserts. We rented an apartment so we could do our own cooking and the choices were AMAZING. Eating in restaurants is expensive though. Hotel Vorab makes amazing pizza in wood fired oven. We enjoyed our stay and we saw a lot of nice places and did a lot with family and friends. But our time was up and we missed our dog and the children and grandchildren. Thank you Flims.

From Flims there are a lot of hiking routes to beautiful lakes, mountains. I have chosen to stay there, becouse wanted to see the Rhein Sclucht and there are more ways to get there and walk along the Rhein gorge and get to the best view points from Flims.
