The view was fantastic, the hot tub was nice (though limited hours of use) and the room was comfortable. However, given the rate we paid, we were surprised by how basic the overall hotel experience felt. There were maintenance issues with the tub and other small details that didn’t quite meet expectations. While the staff was friendly and made efforts to address the problems, the property ultimately felt more like an upscale budget hotel.

This is a lovely hotel with great views of the Matterhorn. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was fabulous. And even had views of the mountains from the very nice bathroom. We can’t say enough good things about this hotel!

We booked a room with Matterhorn view and terrace. All we could see was a crane and building site that blocked the view in a way that you couldn’t take a photo because of the crane. We paid over $400 for this room. The manager decided we could still see the mountain so there was no grounds for complaint. We should have been advised by the hotel that there was construction going on. They must have been aware of this as they also provided earbuds to block noise. All in all the hotel is ok, nothing special, but the managers handling of our situation was beyond disappointing.

Absolutely perfect way to stay in Zermatt. Views that don’t break the bank, a staff that’s welcoming, accommodating, and kind, with amenities to match. Close enough to everything, but a block or two off to capture additional quiet and calm.

Best view in town!

We received a generous room upgrade without asking upon arrival and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was delicious while our view of the Matterhorn was breathtaking. We’ll definitely be back next time we visit Zermatt!

This is a great hotel for your visit to Zermatt. Our rooms had a direct view of the Matterhorn which was incredible. The location is great. Close enough to the main street and lifts and far enough away to escape the noise of the busy area. The room was clean and well kept. The only thing that would have made the stay better is if we had access to an iron. It’s a great place and we’ll be back!!

Lovely stay!

We had a really nice stay at the Hotel Ambience, it had lovely staff (it was a small team as it was off-season, but they were really kind and helpful). The rooms were comfy, breakfast was great, and we really enjoyed having a relaxed drink on their terrace with a view of the Matterhorn.

I loved this hotel! I asked ahead of time for gluten free breakfast options and they purchased rolls especially for me. They also arranged for a taxi to pick us up at the train on the day we arrived. Our rooms had spectacular views of the Matterhorn with great balconies to relax in. They stored our suitcases on the last day so we were free to roam until train time. Great service, great hotel!
