We stayed for a couple of nights and took an opportunity to discover close by cities and attractions. Both Sion and Montreux are in a short car drive. There is a salt mine very close. And you can take a cograil from very close by to get up to the mountains. The apartment had parking spot which was great. The local area also has several takeaway / restaurants in a walking distance, as well as a couple of shops such as Coop.
