Great location on the main street of Zermatt. A good breakfast and clean room. Little engagement with staff so easy to check in. Be warned quite a lot of stairs to rooms and not lift.

Great location and adequate rooms with no frills. Main problem for us was lots of narrow winding stairs and no elevator. With suitcases that was an ordeal coming and going. Nice restaurant on the premises.

Hotel was in a great location 400 metre walk from train station. In the centre of town so easy to walk everywhere. Be aware there are stairs to climb and no one available to help with luggage. We only seen staff at breakfast time who made our coffee. On arrival we collected our room key off a hook. Rooms and shower extremely small. Basic room but I guess you are paying for the location. Breakfast very basic. No toaster.
