The history and location
The history of the Self Check-In Hotel am Schlosspark in Brig begins in the mid-1970s. At the place where the legendary “Hammerschmitta” – an old forge – used to stand, a consortium was planning to build a residential building. The project went bankrupt before construction began. In 1974, the well-known Valais hotelier and ski acrobat Art Furrer bought and built the Schlosshotel Garni, which opened in 1976. In 2021 the castle hotel was sold to the Zenklusen Jörg family.
Central location of the hotel in Brig
The location of the hotel with a view of the imposing and venerable Stockalper Palace with its public palace garden could not have been chosen better and is today considered one of the most beautiful and idyllic locations in Brig and the surrounding area.
