A truly phenomenal hotel! The design is wonderfully stylish and captures a perfect holiday atmosphere, while remaining remarkably clean and comfortable. We stayed in a Matterhorn view suite, which was incredibly spacious—watching the golden sunrise over the Matterhorn from our private balcony each morning was unforgettable. Additionally, the breakfast was exceptionally lavish, exquisite, and delicious. The staff were remarkably warm and helpful—Highly recommended!

The staff was first rate from the train pick up to the drop off they covered all of our bases. The views from our room could not have been better, waking up to see the Matterhorn every morning completed an item on my bucket list. Locations was great, although I thought it was far off as the driver took us there, that was only because of the streets he took to avoid crowds. So close to the church which provided a point of direction when we wandered about town.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had a fairly pleasant stay at this hotel. We had initially booked a junior suite but decided to upgrade to a better room as the first one felt uncomfortable, dark, like we were staying in someone else’s bedroom. The room we stayed in was better, with a good Mountain View and comfortable bed. Breakfast was just ok. The spa also was ok, not one that enticed you back each day. Our biggest issue was the noise from other guests, there wasn’t a day where we weren’t awoken by people upstairs/next door. We would be unlikely to stay again in the hotel, but will happily praise the hotel’s restaurant, which had such great food.

We are on a seven city trip through Europe. This is our sixth stop, and the best. The building is adorable with flowing flowers on every balcony. The front garden is strewn with loungers and tables with large, comfy chairs—plus lap blankets for the chill! Our room was on the top floor, and our balcony gave us a spectacular view of the Matterhorn. Fine linens, great scents in the toiletries. Best breakfast buffet we’ve had—yes eggs and bacon but also berries and every type of nut and muesli, and thick rustic breads, fresh orange, carrot, and grapefruit juice, cheeses, ginger shots, AND you can order from a menu! Every time we sat in the cozy lounge or out on the lawn, someone was there in minutes to ask if we’d like something. High recommend.
