Landhotel Gorfion Malbun

Landhotel Gorfion stands at 1,600 metres above sea level in the alpine village of Malbun, at the eastern end of the Liechtenstein principality in the municipality of Triesenberg. The hotel's address — Malbun 105 — places it at the heart of Liechtenstein's only ski resort, with ski-in and ski-out access in winter and immediate trailhead access to summer alpine hiking in the Rätikon mountain range. The nearest major town, Vaduz, lies approximately 20 kilometres by road, making Gorfion a genuine mountain retreat rather than a city-adjacent property. The hotel holds a four-star superior rating and is certified as a Familotel — a European network of premium family-focused hotels — making it the only property in Liechtenstein designed specifically around families with young children. Architecture follows the alpine lodge tradition: warm timber panelling, generous mountain-facing windows, and interiors designed to accommodate families from infancy upwards. The hotel provides complimentary professional childcare for approximately 79 hours per week, a dedicated children's play area, and dining menus tailored to young guests alongside the adult restaurant programme. Rooms range from standard doubles to family suites accommodating four or more guests comfortably, with most oriented toward the mountain bowl surrounding Malbun. The organic restaurant sources ingredients from certified regional farms and local suppliers, producing a menu that balances gourmet presentation with hearty alpine portions. Breakfast is served buffet-style with considerable variety; evening menus change seasonally. The spa and wellness centre offers sauna, steam room, and relaxation areas available to all guests; a fitness room is also provided. In winter, the Malbun ski area provides approximately 23 kilometres of pistes across beginner and intermediate terrain. In summer, hiking trails of all difficulty grades radiate from the hotel's front door. The hotel is currently closed for renovation and is scheduled to reopen in December 2026; guests should confirm availability directly with the property before planning a visit.
