Picture from the entrance. The most delightful hotel.

This hotel......let's just say that my husband and I have stayed in a lot of boutique style hotels in Europe and this one takes the cake. The ambiance from the moment you step in the door is special. Our room was completely decked out in a wood and chalet style decor. They thought of everything here. Beyond amazing and I would love to have stayed longer than two nights. The owner is kind and personable and both restaurants are excellent and noteworthy in that they use their own farm for many of the dishes served. The price is more than reasonable. America, take notice that you don't have to charge an arm and a leg to have a wonderful experience. Transportation to the hotel from the train station in Zermatt is provided. Call ahead.

Rated one of the top 25 or so hotels in Zermatt on TripAdvisor, we decided to check this property out primarily because they had some availability on short notice in early January 2012. The hotel is a part of the Romatik chain of hotels that seem to be throughout Europe. It is a chalet-style hotel in Zermatt, in other words, a boutique-style hotel in American parlance. The interior of the rooms were adorable and the floor plans were definitely planned with skiers in mind. There is complimentary ski storage on one of the below ground levels, accessible by lift, and there is a huge Cleopatra-themed (???) spa area with a decent gym (no treadmills) a roomy sauna (the textile free zone may catch some westerners off guard), a tepidarium, a huge indoor pool with a few oversized cabana chairs, a massage area, etc. There is an Apple desktop computer in the lobby and free wireless internet in rooms, though we had to change rooms during our stay and did not have access in our second room. There are no in-room thermostats, so if you want the temperature in your room adjusted, you must call the front desk. Our first room was quite hot and we solved that by cracking the door. The sub-freezing mountain air was quite refreshing and did the trick. The staff is essentially quad-lingual and was very helpful with any question or need we had. The property is located in the town center but across the river from the main shopping strip (a 3 minute walk away). Fuchs bakery is right across the street, as is Intersport (which provides ski equipment rental). The ski bus stop is a minute's walk to the river and down a flight of stairs. We got Matterhorn view rooms, which are more pricey but provide eye-popping views of the peak on sunny mornings. If you do not want to splurge, you can get rooms that face the other direction but note there is a discotheque that can be lively and so it apparently is more quiet on the Matterhorn side. Finally, breakfasts here (included with the room rate) were spectacular. Freshly squeezed orange juice, champagne, eggs made to order, all kinds of local cheeses, cured meats, pastries, etc. etc. etc. On our first night, we opted for the half-board option (25 CHFs per person for dinner at the hotel's restaurant) and were essentially disappointed. Aside from one out of this world appetizer, we found the quality to be akin to hotel convention food. There is another "restaurant" in the same the property that is more made-to-order food and my guess is it is better than the half-board option; however it is significantly more expensive. There were a ton of couples and families at this hotel and it was quite a nice crowd. I would recommend this as a great option for a stay in Zermatt. We found room prices to be in the 450 to 660 CHF range, a little lower than the ultra high end properties in town that go for 750 CHF/night.

Room 202 is magical

See all

Excellent hotel. Great location in the center of town. Rooms were clean and very comfortable and…read morethe staff was very kind and responsive. The morning breakfast was diverse and delicious.

I fell down a flight of stairs admiring the design of the lobby and it's still five stars!…read more An outstanding comfortable, contemporary property that oozes Swiss design, style and more importantly service. Warm wood tones intermixed with natural stone, LED lit frosted glass edge hallways, glass elevators and stairs accented with glass, comfortable common spaces with charming fireplaces, and thanks to being perched atop a rocky outcrop, amazing views overlooking the town stretching up to the Matterhorn. Service begins at the time of booking. Confirmation emails asking of special request, restaurant reservations at its Michelin one star eatery, and scheduling transportation to the property (Zermatt is a car free zone - only electric taxis are allowed). On arrival, the hotel's private taxi retrieves you. All luggage is handled leaving you to check in and enjoy a welcome drink. In the room, bottled water, welcome fruit and sweets plus a decanter of bourbon await. (You're here to relax right? What's a few drinks). The rooms themselves are large, very well designed incorporating the natural beauty outside while inside, filled with warm wood surfaces and lighting. Excellent finishes and impeccably clean. --Linens and robes - extremely plush. --Shampoo, body wash, lotions - Aesop. --Bed and bedding - extremely comfortable pillows but very firm mattresses. --Power - Easily accessible throughout the room. Other amenities include: -- Michelin one star restaurant (The Restaurant at the Omnia) on the property. -- Turn down service with Swiss chocolates -- High speed WiFi -- Buffet breakfast (included) -- Transport to and from the station. Outstanding service throughout. Very fluent English spoken. Rates will vary by the season but are very reasonable all things considered (A stay at a Four Seasons in the States will cost you double for less service and charm). Tip: Book direct for the best availability and rates (in CHF) provided your credit card has no international transaction fee else opt for an online booking site. Highly recommended.

Genuine love for something can create truly amazing things. For the owners of CERVO, it is the love…read morefor nature and outdoors. That theme is evident in every carefully crafted piece of this gorgeous property and being a guest here is very much a privilege. The arrival was welcomed with a view of the majestic Matterhorn right from the steps of the entrance. Next, being seated on a comfortable sofa, introduced to the property and given a welcome glass of sparkling wine. CERVO is rustic and adds a lot to the spirit of Zermatt's traditional architecture, some of it original and some of it, like CERVO, much much newer. The rooms are tastefully and uniquely appointed, with an interesting element of cloth walls that I have not seen anywhere before. All the amenities in the room are there for comfort and to blend in with its natural environment. The highlight is the sauna with a window and view inside every chalet. It is empty and quite private. After a day in the woods, it is hard to rival that. Then, there is the breakfast restaurant. Prepare to taste lots and lots of different regional cheeses that likely few have heard of before outside of the area. There is a solid menu of selections. The lunch osso bucco was excellent. The people working here are young, yet surprisingly well skilled at what they do. Kind, helpful and go above and beyond. CERVO is simply perfect. It is cozy and special, being a guest here is really a privilege.

Interesting but could be better…read more Excellent location at the end of runs 1 and 2. Apres at the outdoor bar is chaotic. Music is live band or dj. Lively but crowded. They smoke freely here which is a no for me. Dinner notes below. Service is unfortunately slow. They seem to be understaffed. It took several requests to get water and pita refills. Setting is dark and eclectic. Wine selection is solid. Mezze to start, with pita chips, hummus and eggplant as standouts. Kofte was interesting but the tabbouleh had a disconcerting consistency. The Korean fried chicken was too salty and sweet. The eggplant curry was a hit and happened to be a massive portion. Fries were pedestrian.
