Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers rooms with a fantastic view of the Matterhorn. The service is exemplary but lacks room service. The location is perfect for reaching the cable cars into the mountains, though the dining options are limited. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, providing great value for money.
The hotel offers majestic rooms with stunning Matterhorn views and exceptional service. However, the dining experience was average with limited local meat options. The location is convenient for accessing cable cars into the mountains, but it could be closer to bus stops. The facilities are modern and comfortable.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms offered a stunning Matterhorn view and were equipped with nice amenities, presenting an excellent view of the surroundings. The location was very convenient, right by a ski bus stop. The dining experience, particularly the delicious homemade cakes, was delightful. However, the price felt a bit high compared to the value received.
