Very good

Such a gem of a hotel in the beautiful Swiss alps.

Amazing location with unforgettable views. Sauna and steam room are exceptional and again amazing views. Meals provided with stay were absolutely delicious

We were not warned that if we leave, we may not make it back due to trains/gondola not running related to weather. Almost got stuck in town without any of our things and would have had to pay for another(very pricey) room for the night.

Very good

The Hotel is obviously at a beautiful location. The rooms are spacious and lovely. If you are planning on skiing, the lift is next to the hotel. Food was great and spas was very relaxing.

The Hotel had a lot of requests before checking in. The last train to reach the hotel from Zermatt is at 7:30pm after that it is impossible to reach the hotel by any means. There is no other restaurant in the area except the hotel restaurant. If you want to ski, you will have to rent the gear from Zermatt and bring to the hotel and then you will have to return before 6 and reach hotel before 7:30 pm. The dinner gets over by 8pm. This was a reason why we didnt go skiing while in Zermatt.
