Very quaint hotel in an extremely central location. Only a few minutes walk from the railway station and situated on the main street in Zermatt. The rooms were spacious and appeared to be recently modernised. The rest of the hotel however, looks a little bit dated.

We enjoyed our stay at The Derby. It was centrally located and close to the train station. Check in was easy and the host was friendly and very accommodating. Our room was clean and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was offered with the room, which is always nice to have! We would definitely stay there again!

This is a fabulous place to stay! The front desk staff had a great sense of humor & explained everything very well. The ‘family’ room for 3 was very clean, comfortable, and looked new! Small balcony was a treat. A bottle of water provided was a nice touch. The restaurant food was delicious & the wait staff was nice. Although the hostess reprimanded me for not telling her we were hotel guests (in order to get the discount on our meal) but I had already told that to the person I saw first, which was our waiter. We appreciated the discount as the meal prices aren’t cheap. The morning breakfast was excellent! A great variety of food, nutritious & delicious. So different from many hotel breakfasts in the USA. It was a short walk to the train station. Overall I would highly recommend the Hotel Derby!
