10/10 Exceptional

We only stayed one night in summer and we enjoyed our stay. The hotel is 5 minutes walk from train station and the room was spacious. We had a balcony with a view of the Matterhorn. Breakfast was included. Ideal hotel for short stays as convenient to train station and village.

I love this property. My room is small but it is in good condition. I love breakfast options. The only thing to let everyone knows in advance is that it is up at the hill so please prepare for the walk and luggage.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel did an excellent job of caring for us. We were stranded in Zermatt with no power and no means of getting out of the town until the avalanche was cleared. The hotel staff went out of their way to make sure we had food and warm blankets, all with good cheer.

Great location in Zermatt. Rooms were nice and clean. Bar was nice. We enjoyed our two night stay.
Katherine, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall our stay was pretty good but there is no air conditioning in the buildings so it was hard to sleep. We opened the windows which made it a bit easier to sleep. The other thing is they don’t have irons to press your clothes available. They make you pay for the pressing service. That was a disappointment as usually when you travel clothes get wrinkle. Another thing I want to mention is that they don’t provide shampoo or conditioner. Other than that it’s a pretty decent hotel to stay.
