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!

Overall, it was a pleasant and beautiful stay. There was only one dissatisfaction with the manager on night duty on our first day. Who did not handle the hotel smoke alarm system issue well at first and blamed the guests without identifying actual root cause. Thanks to the men who assisted as we needed to rest early after a long day of traveling. Lovely receptionist on our check-in with amazing customer experience. Can’t recall her name.

Gem of a hotel with service and amenities better than your average 5 start hotel. Very simple / basic rooms, but fantastic staff, amazing breakfast, excellent 30minute slots booking system of the outside jacuzzi with view of the Matterhorn and the sauna so they are in fact private. Drinks served in the hot tub etc etc etc. Just really amazing. And location is good.
