This hotel was wonderful. Very tasteful in its design and well maintained. Perfectly located in the middle of town and walkable to everything. When we first arrived in the afternoon we couldn’t see the mountain behind clouds but it was out in its full beauty in the morning while eating the complementary breakfast. Staff was very friendly and helpful with everything.

Perfect location from the train station, to the main street, surrounding cafés and restaurants, and most importantly, stunning view of the Matterhorn right outside of the hotel itself while you enjoy a nice cup of coffee on the front Terrace. Staff was very accommodating as I had a late check-in. It is certainly walkable from Zermatt HB station. However, I can see this walk can be challenging if you have a lot of luggage with you.

Location was fairly close to the station and in the middle of town. There was an elevator. There was no AC, but it was not hot and leaving the window open was sufficient.

We picked this hotel because of its central location- we skied in/out at all three locations easily enough. Room was very clean, the view of the Matterhorn was impressive! Their included daily breakfast was delicious, and had many options. The staff was very pleasant- we would stay here again!
