Hotel Bahnhof exceeded my expectations from the moment i stepped out of the Zermatt station - it was just across the street and so central that you were right on the shopping street and the goats passed it in the morn and afternoon on their trek to the mountains. I stayed in the hostel portion in a women’s room with 4 sets of bunk beds and I was very happy with my bottom bunk by the window, which had the illusion of privacy and cool air from the window. The facilities are very clean and well maintained, and the kitchen fully equipped for major cooking or in my case, microwave food and kettle for tea. There seemed to be enough showers and toilets to go around and the coin operated washer/dryer was a welcome luxury that other hotels i stayed at didn’t seem to have. The desk clerks were nice and helpful. Overall, it was a great stay.

This location is excellent and the train station is across the street, (I never heard the train). The green line bus stop is about a 30 second walk, while the heart of downtown is located a couple of minutes from this hotel. The rooms were clean and my hostel bed was configured in such a way that it was very private. I would stay here again!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
It was very low-end for the price. Pillows (one each) were basically flat. Mattress was reasonably comfortable. Front desk attendant was great and the cleaning staff were better than many other places more expensive. Maid service every day. No room refrigerator or coffee maker. Both were in a lower level common kitchen where some guests prepared very smelly meals. A cup of coffee costs 2 CHF. Balconies on rooms insecure, allowing anyone with access to the center hall to walk right up too your window or door. This happened to us.

Hotel Bahnhof was probably my favorite stay of our entire trip. The location is absolutely spectacular — just steps from the train station and super easy to find. The whole place had a relaxed, welcoming vibe and felt very safe. It’s thoughtfully set up for travelers, with a well-equipped group kitchen and convenient luggage storage after check-out. These little touches made a big difference. This was also incredible value for money. I couldn’t be more impressed and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area. A fantastic stay all around!

Pros - Opposite to the main train station & local bus stop. Cons - No lift, 2 pm check in time, Smart a** staff at reception which can be annoying if you had long travel day.

Place in the snow

Short stay - was aware it was hostel. Ground floor room which was great and windows that open. Was hot inside even though snow outside and no heating operating. Just across the road from the train station. Nothing in Zermatt is far away. Coop store 5 mins away with good selection of ready to eat food. Has communal kitchen which was great for quiet free cuppa. Really helpful reception. It is a hostel so rooms are tiny as is bathroom however shower is hugh with good water flow

What a really great find. I took the hostel room upstairs on the 4th floor (Kilimanjaro) and it worked well. Definitely a hostel up there with bathrooms one floor down but exactly what I needed. Amazing kitchen and great ski room with boot heaters. Right next to the train station and easy access to skiing. The check in and staff were amazing. Quite a find.

This is an older property but clean. The facilities such as shower, toilet, kitchen and washer/dryer are shared. I had no issues with congestion. It is literally across the street from the train station and the entire town is walkable from this location. I had a third floor room with a lovely view of the Matterhorn. There is no elevator and heavy luggage might be difficult to manage.
