Aparthotels & serviced apartments in Fiss

10 stays · 7 aparthotels and 3 serviced apartments

Fiss is a mountain village in the Landeck district of Tyrol, about 10.5 km south of Landeck above the upper Inn valley, and one of the three villages of the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis ski area. Aparthotels and serviced apartments suit it because this is a family and group destination: a kitchen, a drying space for ski kit and extra bedrooms make a week much easier, in winter for skiing and in summer for hiking, biking and mountain playgrounds.
