Hotel berhampiran Moos Trail, Zermatt

Great staff, and wonderful breakfast. We also took advantage of the special fondue dinner there. Storage space for boots and skis was well planned and very convenient to access the town's free bus system. Happy hour there was very nice and great drinks.

Goao picked us up from the GBB station and pointed out different restaurants that we might like. Walking into the hotel revealed a scent perfect for the senses, and the decor was fabulous. We were greeted by Marco’s smiling face. He was pleasant and full of information. He answered all of our questions and was very attentive to our needs. We mistakenly took the lift down to the basement but was surprised when Martin, the owner of the hotel, greeted us and inquired about our experience. The room was clean, comfortable, and it had a great layout. Balcony views of the mountains on both sides were an added bonus. We enjoyed the daily complimentary breakfast, the selections were awesome, and the staff were nice and pleasant. Between the three gentleman and the breakfast staff, we felt welcomed and appreciated. We will definitely stay here again if we’re able to return to Zermatt. I highly recommend it.

The Matterhornlodge is located about a 5-10 min walk from the Zermatt station. We arrived at about 1pm and were informed that check-in was only at 2pm so we went for lunch and returned at around 2.30pm. We were greeted by Ruth, the proprietress of the hotel, who gave us a comprehensive briefing of the house rules and policies. Ruth was very warm, friendly, and charming; she was very guest-focused and was happy to find out more about where we were from and what we planned to do. Ruth even gave us recommendations for Bern when we told her we were going there next. Although the hotel is stated to be 4 stars, we were very impressed by the room and the amenities. The bathroom came with a bidet and the toiletries provided were of good quality. The room was also very spacious with enough room to open up 2 luggage bags. The towels and robes were thick, warm, and fluffy. The breakfast provided in the morning was also quite good with a decent selection of breads, cold cuts, cheese, and eggs. At checkout, Ruth also gave us a complimentary ride to the train station in her electric vehicle. All in all, we had a very enjoyable stay at the Matterhornlodge and we were very impressed by Ruth’s hospitality.

Hôtel Parnass Stayed june 14 to 17 LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION (6 STAR) This chalet hotel is convienently located about a 10 minute easy walk from the train station and just a few minutes from the main Bahnhofstrasse where most of the shops and restaurants are located. There is also a free bus that regularly stops directly in front of the hotel. It will quickly take you to the train station, the gornergrat train right next to the main train station and Matterhorn glazier paradise lift. All just a few minutes away. We walked from the paradise lift to the train station/gornergrat train in about 20 minutes as the walk along the little river was so enjoyable. But what is so unique about this hotel is the spectacular views of the Matterhorn from a significant number of balcony rooms. We took advantage of the clear weather that day and easily did the Matterhorn glacier paradise lift in the morning and then did the gornergrat train in the afternoon with a nice lunch at the top. In addition this hotel is very clean with an excellent breakfast that will get you through the morning. We loved the soft boiled eggs and all the breads with a variety of cheeses. And even sitting in the breakfast room we also had such magnificent views of the Matterhorn. We were so fortunate to have picked this lovely hotel in the heart of Zermatt and highly recommend it as your base location. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Very cozy and clean, the staff checked our covid certificates and immediately accommodated us in our rooms. Breakfast was included in our price, we were asked what we wanted to have (croissant, bread, coffee order and ham/cheese) the previous day. I want to believe it was due to corona restrictions that they did not include these on the breakfast buffet, because one thin slice of bread was not sufficient; although we got a second serving when we asked. The rooms were warm, clean and all in all, a very decent option for the otherwise ”overpriced” Zermatt.

On a quiet side street, in the middle of the town, with easy access to the railway station, shops and restaurants. Our room was spacious and clean, the breakfast very good. From our first floor room we could even see the top of Matterhorn. What surprised me though was the luck of any leaflets advertising attractions and events nearby, but maybe this is not a feature of Swiss travel industry.

Getting a room in Zermatt during the peak winter season is quite challenging without committing to a certain minimum number of room nights. We were fortunate to book a room at Hotel Derby for one night, which fits our tight travel schedule. Several things we loved about this hotel: 1. The location - It is easily accessible on foot and situated along a busy street, only a minute's walk from Zermatt train station. 2. The guest rooms - They are recently renovated and beautifully furnished. We had a room with a balcony overlooking the peak of Matterhorn. Unfortunately, it was too cold in December that we didn't get to enjoy ourselves or stay out for long. 3. The breakfast - A wide selection of continental breakfast and it is included in the room rate. Even though it was a short stay for us, on the whole, the staff is amiable, and we highly recommend it.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. Room was clean, spacious and very comfortable. Very near the zermatt train station, just opposite of Macdonald’s. Breakfast had a good selection. Housekeeping would check in on you and offer free chocolates. The only feedback I have is the room didn’t provide English instructions on how to dial the concierge so I had to walk down to request for items.

We stayed here for 3 nights to celebrate my sixtieth birthday, and had a lovely time. This hotel is located at the top of the mountain at just over 10,000 ft which is something to be aware of when booking. You may suffer from altitude sickness as we did , and it took a good 24 hrs to acclimatise. Fortunately we were there for 3 nights , so we were able to enjoy it. The rooms are well equipped , modern and very clean , but fairly small, and of course the view is amazing. You don’t come here for the food, and as others have said , it’s average, Breakfast is lovely, a good buffet and eggs cooked to order. Dinner however was a little disappointing, mainly due to the fact that the chef consistently over cooked the meat , to such an extent that on the last night the beef was inedible. It looks like ( in our opinion) parts of the meals are cooked in advance and reheated , leading to dry and at times very overcooked food. On my birthday however , the meal was lovely and the staff really made an effort for me, a lovely private table with a view of the Matterhorn, impeccable service from our waiter Peter, topped of with a special dessert from the chef. This hotel is very expensive, not unsurprising given the location, but for this price I would have expected more attention to detail from the chef. However when the trains stop and you get the top of the mountain with just you and a few other guests it is absolutely stunning, I even got up early to see sunrise one morning, and along with several other guests , had a spectacular view .

Excellent value and good option instead of paying high prices in Zermatt 15 minutes away. Across the road from train station and Zermatt shuttle. Good size room with tv, balcony, kettle, tea, coffee. Nice bathroom. Buffet breakfast with hot and cold options. Restaurant has lots of choices and big serves. Lovely staff. Hope to stay again.
