Loved loved loved this property! Our room was great and we had a balcony that looked up at the mountains. The breakfast spread was amazing and the hotel bar is so cozy and fun.

Perfect Boutique Hotel in the heart of Zermatt

This is an amazing boutique hotel in the heart of Zermatt and a mere 4 minute walk from the train station. Staff were very nice, rooms were immaculately clean and comfortable. They have an attached restaurant and bar that were great. Both have great atmosphere with a cozy fireplace in the lobby bar. Great saunas and steam rooms on the lowest level. Ski storage room as well and a nice gym. Perfect place to stay on all fronts.

Fabulous hotel. Perfectly situated, with a choice of restaurants within and more within walking distance. Easy to reach from the train station and ideal for a visit to the Matterhorn. We had a fabulous meal in the Pinte restaurant and enjoyed drinks on the outside terrace. Great view from our room and the room was amazing. Had everything I needed and was super modern. Staff were really friendly and accommodating too. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again if I am so lucky.

Loved the hotel and the staff. The breakfast was great with lots of options. But ask for a hotel room away from the street. Our room was facing the street and the tourists were loud up till 2:00 am and the early morning work in the town started at 6:00 am. So basically, we just could not sleep at night. I loved the hotel but unfortunately had a bad experience.
