Pretty hotel in the centre of Zermatt. The hotel facilities were great, really happy with the pool and sauna. Nearby dining options were plenty and great quality. Didn’t initially know Zermatt was car free but the shuttle from Täsch was easy and there was plenty of parking.
The best view ever from our room - the Matterhorn!
Disappointingly no air conditioning but it was unseasonably hot weather.
Breakfast was varied and plentiful.
Zermatt was definitely our favorite town. We only wish that we stayed longer. Your location is amazing and extremely convenient to town and the rail system.
Great location, friendly staff, breakfast is not best in class but decent, hotel has construction going on one side so was noisy. Some facilities like pool are shared with neighboring hotel. No air conditioning, but was cool enough at noise with all windows open.
Great hotel very near to the train station.
However at check-in there was another power outage- the whole town was without power for 2 hours. We were tired and hungry- it was difficult to find something to eat as nearly everything had closed.
We had booked for 3 nights but to be honest 2 nights would have been plenty of time.
The Hotel was perfect. It had everything to make our week in Zermatt perfect -- Great Breakfast, Great Location and very comfortable rooms. They picked us up at the train station and the service never ended until they delivered us back for departure.
Great hotel, great location. The main train station and the Gornergrad train are 3 min away. The main strip with shopping and restaurants is 4 min away. Everything is just far enough away for the room to be super quiet. I did not have to wake up early and drag my luggage a long way to catch the train.
There is a convenient ski rental on site.
The breakfast has a good selection but their breakfast tea was not hot enough.
The room was very nice and comfortable, although it tended to be on the hot side, enought to have to crack the patio door to keep it cool. I appreciated the full shower with glass door as opposed to those half covered ones that I end up spraying water all over the place.
I usually have a pet peeve with overly thick pillows, but here, their pillows smooshed down and were quite comfortable.
I am probably in the minority, but I would prefer a thinner sheet and blanket instead of the thick duvet you seem find on every Swiss bed.
The pool was large and spacious and I appreciated the hot tub after a good ski.
Highly recommend it - 4.5 ot of 5 stars.
