This is a simple hotel that dates to the late 16th century. There are only about 10 rooms, and most share a bath. The Lowen's restuarant has good and hearty alpine fare, and features wines made from grapes grown on the property.
It's been a while since we visited the Lowen (1985), but I made recent contact and they're still in business. The Lowen used to be managed by a kindly older lady named Hilda Vogt. The new mgt has informed me that Ms. Vogt is still alive and now lives in rural Liechtenstein. If you go to the Lowen, drop Ms. Vogt's name and it might get you an extra smile.
2007 UPDATE... I found their new website. Looks like the Lowen has been updated and spruced up, but they still have the same great antiques in the rooms.
Unique Qualities: History, peace, quiet, good food and central location. And, back in 1985, it was a good deal, price-wise. I understand (reflected below) that the prices have gone up, comparatively.
