“The hotel's central Zermatt location is a real advantage; the Matterhorn views from some rooms are magnificent, and the updated rooms, despite the building's late 19th-century origins, feel fresh. The staff's flexibility during a major snowstorm impressed me, and the family suites, complete with balconies, are ideal. In my opinion, this property blends historic charm with modern comfort exceptionally well.”
