Hotels in Brig

For travelers who want to reach the high Alps, Brig is the essential gateway. This historic town in the Upper Valais is the northern terminus of the Simplon Pass road and a major railway junction for the legendary Glacier Express. The main draw is its strategic position for accessing the Aletsch Arena, home to the UNESCO-listed Great Aletsch Glacier. In town itself, the baroque Stockalper Castle, with its distinctive onion-domed towers, provides a grand focal point for a stroll through the old quarter.

Brig suits active travelers and transit-focused visitors perfectly. It’s ideal for families or solo hikers using it as a base before heading up to car-free resorts like Bettmeralp. The compact town center around Bahnhofstrasse is the most convenient area to stay, putting you steps from the train station and bus terminal for regional connections. Business travelers also find it practical for its central Valais location and excellent rail links to Bern, Milan, and Zurich.

On HOTEVI, you’ll find eight hotels in Brig, ranging from reliable, good-value chain hotels near the station to traditional family-run guesthouses. Accommodation is generally functional and comfortable, dominated by mid-range and budget-friendly options that prioritize location and straightforward service for those on the move.
