I had a wonderful stay. This hotel is conventionally located right next to trains, restaurants, and shopping. The staff is very accommodating as well. I would stay here again.

Great location and the 2 Bedroom Suite was comfortable. Unfortunately after we checked out, my father tripped over an inconspicuous metal door stopper just outside the hotel's main entrance. The stopper, though in the middle, was not easily noticeable, causing his left shoe to become trapped, resulting in a fall. He sustained injuries to his chin, forehead, and chest, and his spectacles were damaged when his face hit the ground. While a male staff member at the reception initially provided some assistance, the overall response from the staff was lacking in empathy and concern. Despite his injuries and our distress, they appeared indifferent and quickly resumed their duties on their monitors (Note: there were no other guests nor phone calls that the two staff at the reception attended to during this time), without offering further assistance or expressing empathy. When we sought help in in booking a taxi to the station following the incident, the staff's demeanour remained unfriendly and the quoted price differed from what the driver demanded upon arrival - 18 CHF. Staff did not provide any additional support. Regrettably, my father's chest injury persists to this day, causing him pain whenever he exerts his lungs even slightly. This unfortunate incident has undoubtedly overshadowed our impression of the hotel and highlights the importance of prioritising the safety and well-being of guests, and of compassionate customer service, especially during times of need.

Dear Madam,We sincerely regret your father's accident.Your father didn't get his feet caught in the door stopper on the way out - which stops the door opening - but in the frame.Our receptionist immediately rushed to his side to help him up, as none of the people around him took the initiative. This same receptionist helped him settle on one of our benches in the hotel lobby, brought him some face wipes and asked your permission to provide him with the products he needed to disinfect his wound, which you refused. He then informed you that if you needed anything, you could come to him again, but you refused any further help. Perhaps because of the language barrier, you didn't understand the concern our two on-site receptionists felt when they saw your elderly father fall.We wish your father a good and quick recovery.Best wishes.

Great location in central Zermatt and close to transport. Friendly helpful staff. Ski rentals available in the hotel with really helpful staff and storage for equipment. Very handy for the main train station when you have an early start back to the airport.

Pros: convenient location to train station, quiet rooms, cleaners were lovely. Good shower pressure and temperature. Cons: breakfast room in windowless basement with no variety in the limited breakfast offering. Not what I would expect from 4*. Limited storage space in bedrooms and no hooks for coats/ski wear. Path from street to reception down a slippery slope. For the price paid it didn’t feel like good value at all.

What an amazing hotel!! we had two balconies, one of which we could see the Matterhorn on a clear day. The suite we had was roomy, clean and well appointed. The staff was friendly and the restaurant on property very good. The buffet breakfast is top notch. It even included specialty coffees. It is literally steps away from the train station and the center of Zermatt.

Lovely staff and hotel. Our accommodation was even better than described. Close to the train station and area restaurants. Note: the hard working breaking staff seemed to be overwhelmed by a large tour group, and everything had run out. Would suggest having a tea and coffee stand for guests to serve themselves = one less thing for the staff to do.

The lift to the glacier paradise was closed due to high winds on the morning we had it scheduled so we didn’t get to see it and the kids were a little sad. Other than that, everything was amazing.

The hotel is very conveniently located. Walking distance to the main station and to all the stores, cafes, restaurants in Zermatt. Rooms are very comfortable, modern. Hotel staff were friendly and professional. Good breakfast choices. However, the walls must be very thin because the noises from the other guests / guest’s rooms were constant. I had to ask several time the guest to keep it quiet because it was very disturbing and could not get any sleep. I would suggest that upon check in the hotel staff should remind the guest to keep it quiet. Beautiful hotel, perfect location, wonderful staff but because of the other guest I left the hotel tired due to the lack of sleep, rest.
