Great location, friendly staff, breakfast is not best in class but decent, hotel has construction going on one side so was noisy. Some facilities like pool are shared with neighboring hotel. No air conditioning, but was cool enough at noise with all windows open.

Great hotel very near to the train station. However at check-in there was another power outage- the whole town was without power for 2 hours. We were tired and hungry- it was difficult to find something to eat as nearly everything had closed. We had booked for 3 nights but to be honest 2 nights would have been plenty of time.

Perfect Start to a Perfect Zermatt Week

The Hotel was perfect. It had everything to make our week in Zermatt perfect -- Great Breakfast, Great Location and very comfortable rooms. They picked us up at the train station and the service never ended until they delivered us back for departure.

Great hotel, great location. The main train station and the Gornergrad train are 3 min away. The main strip with shopping and restaurants is 4 min away. Everything is just far enough away for the room to be super quiet. I did not have to wake up early and drag my luggage a long way to catch the train. There is a convenient ski rental on site. The breakfast has a good selection but their breakfast tea was not hot enough. The room was very nice and comfortable, although it tended to be on the hot side, enought to have to crack the patio door to keep it cool. I appreciated the full shower with glass door as opposed to those half covered ones that I end up spraying water all over the place. I usually have a pet peeve with overly thick pillows, but here, their pillows smooshed down and were quite comfortable. I am probably in the minority, but I would prefer a thinner sheet and blanket instead of the thick duvet you seem find on every Swiss bed. The pool was large and spacious and I appreciated the hot tub after a good ski. Highly recommend it - 4.5 ot of 5 stars.

if you are looking for a simple room to stay at in Zermat then this is the perfect place. Everything was up to par, the room was constantly cleaned we always had fresh towels and the hotel staff will bring you a robe and slippers if asked. The ski rental is connected to the hotel therefore we did not have to walk far to rent skis which was extremely convenient. The breakfast was delicious every morning and the staff was all very nice and helpful. I would definitely stay at this hotel again if returning.
