We tried the restaurant, very expensive and the food was not good . You are better finding a different restaurant in town. The room was ok nothing spectacular, . The location was good close to the train station and downtown .Staff could be more friendly. The hotel did not have a big place to just sit down and relax , they have a small living room. I was expecting more for the money we paid

The hotel is updated and well appointed. The rooms are small but optimized with storage. We had adjacent rooms with our teenage girls that connected along the outside balconies. The hotel is near the train station which was great upon arrival and departure. There is minimal noise from the train station that I only heard when the balcony door was ajaf. So, if you are a light sleeper, then request a room away from that section. The staff and breakfast were great.

Great hotel in Zermatt
Pretty hotel in the centre of Zermatt. The hotel facilities were great, really happy with the pool and sauna. Nearby dining options were plenty and great quality. Didn’t initially know Zermatt was car free but the shuttle from Täsch was easy and there was plenty of parking.
