The property was well appointed with everything you need for a pleasant stay and walkable to everything Zermatt has to offer. The only downside was leading up to the property there are quite a few stairs, so if you are someone with mobility issues this would not be an ideal apartment. For us it was not an issue, and we enjoyed hanging out...

"Excellent staff and wonderful check in as they also provided us with some places to visit around the village along with coupons to the restaurant at the hotel. We were also allowed to store our luggage in their locked room. This was our favourite stay in Switzerland and we will definitely want to come back. The views, the vibes, and the coziness were the highlight for us. We didn’t want to leave. Incredibly clean, very spacious rooms, and a large renovated bathroom."

10/10 Excellent
"Be aware that you CANNOT drive nor park near the hotel. Only electric cars from residents are allowed!! If you are driving you must leave your car parked at the Matterhorn train station, (we paid approx. €15), then catch the train to Zermatt that cost €8 (if you get late and train is not available there’s a free shuttle that will take you to Zermatt) then just walk a couple of blocks to the hotel. DO NOT TAKE A TAXI!! The taxi would charge you about €40 to take you and is not necessary!!! Unfortunately we didn’t know this information because the hotel didn’t send us any information about it, so when we arrived, it was pretty late, we drove almost to the hotel when the police stopped us and told us that we had to drive back to the train station because driving in Zermatt is prohibited unless you are a resident or have a special permit that cost you thousands of $$ so we went through a lot of inconveniences and learned the hard way. We had to drive back to the Matterhorn Train Station, get the shuttle that luckily the driver was helpful and took us to Zermatt and called a taxi, but we ended paying the taxi the ridiculous fee! Other than that, the hotel is in a great location, walking distance to shops, train station and bus stop (green line is free). The rooms were clean and beds were very comfortable. The staff was very helpful and considered apologizing for all the inconveniences. The breakfast was excellent, you sit down with the Matterhorn view that was awesome!!"
