Stunning views
Great location and nice hotel. Room was pretty small for the price, but the balcony overlooking the stunning mountain range of Switzerland made up for it. The hotel offered a decent breakfast and you have plenty of food options nearby. Overall the hotel views were stunning and it was a decent hotel.

We had a great view of the Matterhorn from our room balcony! It was unbelievable to have that site right outside our room every time we woke up or cared to look out the window! Excellent location!

OK hotel, nothing special
Position and view good, I had view over the town rather than the Matterhorn. Otherwise, ok but nothing special

One night stay
The location of the hotel convenient. Our room is nice and spacious, in fact the biggest one we had during our two weeks trip. Room is clean, but unfortunately the bed is not comfortable to sleep. Our room has a balcony with view of the mountain, but unfortunately was block due to construction. The breakfast is good. The staff is friendly.

We stayed at this hotel in Zermatt for one night and it was amazing! I was very surprised at how central the hotel is within Zermatt. It is close to the river but also very close to the high street, which is full of restaurants and bars. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to have a room with a view of the Matterhorn, as well as breakfast being included. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Zermatt and I would certainly stay here again.

The view of the Matterhorn from our room balcony was magnificent! The only negative of our stay was coffee. There is no option in the room which I assume is for fire safety. When having breakfast in the dining area the coffee is served by the cup. When there are 8-20 guests at one time and one server who is hustling it's not efficient. There is no fault on the server just the system.

The location of this hotel is so great - it is right in the center of town, close walk to the train station and many bars and restaurants, and the Main Street of shopping in town. It is great how breakfast is included, and the hotel is clean and nice with some rooms having a good view of the Matterhorn. I would recommend to anyone coming to Zermatt!
