Cari Pangsapuri di Zermatt

My wife have grown quite fond of mountaintop lodgings for our ski holidays and they don’t come much more emblematic than 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat. Perched atop a peak facing the iconic Matterhorn, it exemplifies the panoramic views and towering location that we adore. Make no mistake, despite my issues raised below, this is a truly magical property. But it isn’t cheap and it comes with a number of limitations that you should be aware of marooned in the middle of nowhere. • COMFORTABLE ROOMS WITH STUNNING VIEWS – Especially the Matterhorn view rooms where the image of this iconic promontory fills your window. • NICELY PRESENTED FOOD – Not quite gourmet, but a clever effort to dress it up with alluring ingredients and garnishes. But the food is tasty and the portions are ample. HINT - GETTING THERE IS VERY COMPLICATED – Do not just put the hotel in your satnav as it will not be able to help you and you will hit lot of problems. Here is a step-by-step guide to getting there: • AVOID THE CAR-TRAIN: The satnavs will give you the fastest route that takes you on a route where you load your car onto a train to be transported through a shortcut tunnel, BUT that train runs very irregularly. So you end of up waiting an hour for a train that saves you 30 minutes of driving time. • GO TO TASCH, SWITZERLAND: Tasch is where you park your car. In fact, I think that the town’s sole purpose in life is to be a giant parking lot for Zermatt. You see Zermatt itself is CAR FREE. So you have to park in Tasch and take a 12 minute shuttle train into Zermatt. I recommend the underground parking lot just to the left of the train station (facing it) which had reasonable prices (12 euros/day), plenty of spaces, but most importantly was the shortest walk to the station (very important when lugging luggage full of ski equipment). • RENT SKI GEAR AT BAYARD – Unlike most ski resorts, the ski rental shops are not obvious. We had to ask to find one. Several people recommended Bayard and they gave us great service. Most importantly, they are on the block adjacent to the train station again minimizing lugging distance. LIMITATIONS - It is a stunning, bucket-list worthy property, but its pricey rack-rates also command a bit of discernment… • OBSERVATORY NOT AVAILABLE – When you read about the place, one of the first things that gets mentioned is its observatory heritage which includes still operational telescopes available for public use. HOWEVER, the observatory is run by a separate company and viewings are only available by prior and separate arrangements. This situation could be better communicated and coordinated. • LOUNGE NOT AVAILABLE – Unfortunately, the hotel doesn’t yet have a common area lounge where you can relax and have drink. You can go down to the dining room and sit at one of the tables with the view of the Matterhorn, but nothing more comfortable. So it is either a table or your room. They are in the process of remodeling the facility and h

I was charged for an additional 288 Swiss FR for “additional guest”. when I checked out. only because I did not put My Son’s name when I did the booking, but I booked a twin room and my son naturally stay with me. not to mention he’s my 13 year old son. they can charge me for additional breakfast. That’s totally OK. but additional person for twin room?really? And Main thing I was not told I will be charged when I checked in. That is not fair I will reflect this to Swiss tourism office. Btw. The staff are 100% good. Very friendly but I am sickened by the strange policy.

That is the fantastic hotel in Zermatt; the service and facility are excellent, and the room has a good view of the mountain and Matterhorn. The price of the room is already included the swimming pool and gym and Sauna, that is the excellent price that gives you the service. I will book this hotel again.

This was our first visit to Zermatt and the Bausite Hotel. We reserved a corner room and received it. The view was spectacular (clear sight to the Matterhorn mountain). The Breakfast buffet was outstanding and plentiful. Freshly squeezed Orange juice daily available. The restaurant is innovative and the food delicious. We used the pool available with 2 jacuzzis. The beds with plenty of pillows are very comfortable. Bathroom is spacious. We certainly can recommend this hotel which has a great location.

很難忘的一次住宿，它在馬特洪峯的半山腰，對於那些滑雪的人來說非常方便.到達中轉站時，你可以聯繫酒店人員來拿行禮.晚上非常安靜.酒店的SPA你不能錯過！

Overall experience is good. Through we did not get the ideal room (high floor) due to full booking, we got a bigger room on the first floor. Cleanliness and location was great, walkable to the train station and it was accessible to the main street. Amenities were good - kettle was provided to boil hot water, tv could login to your own netflix account, there was tea time provided at 4pm daily.

I traveled with clutch and to the hotel is simply easy walk. Direct opposite the rail station and near all the restaurants and Coop. I used the pool and it’s so nice.The breakfast was wonderful (some FOC selection in menu and a good spread in buffet) and they provide afternoon tea too.

U can see Matterhorn in the hotel. The room is clean and comfy. Breakfast is fine and it will be good if larger variety of food can be provided

We enjoyed our two nights stay here & it really makes us feel at home. The hotel location is near the train station. Coop supermarket/bus stop are just nearby

We stayed three nights at the Mirabeau and absolutely loved everything about it! Our room was wonderful for the 4 of us and had an incredible Matterhorn view. The hotel has a great little bar and the bartenders were fantastic and personable. The front desk staff was incredibly helpful with local recommendations, and especially helpful with the return of an item we had left at a restaurant in Findeln while hiking. The breakfast was good. The hotel has a pool which was great for the kids. A fantastic experience all around and if I ever get back to Zermatt, I will be staying at the Mirabeau!
