The hotel is located really close to the train station, in the middle of a busy street of restaurants, bars and shopping. Super convenient to get to all that Zermatt has to offer. Our room was beautiful - especially with the angled ceiling and the windows that over looked the Matterhorn. The bed was comfortable and when we asked about better pillows were offered much better ones. The room was warm, despite there being a fan, even at night but it was warm while we were in town. The front desk worker in the evening was excellent - she gave us great recommendations for activities for the next day as well as made us a dinner reservation. I’m not sure we could have made the most out of our time without her help. She also let us borrow an adaptor for our room!

Clean and fresh room, a very nice spa area, and excellent breakfast and service. Despite being located on the main street, it was very quiet at night. Only 3 minutes from the train station and right in the center of everything. The hotel also offers a very spacious ski room, which is perfect for winter stays, as well as a billiard table for those who enjoy playing. There is also a restaurant and bar at the hotel - one of the best in the village. We would definitely come back!
