Grand Hotel Zermatterhof

Grand Hotel Zermatterhof has been extending a warm and hospitable welcome to guests ever since it first opened in 1879. Enjoying a central but peaceful location, this traditional luxury establishment offers both classic elegance and all the comforts of modernity in equal measure. The individually furnished rooms and suites afford magnificent views of the mountains, many of the Matterhorn. For the ultimate in luxury, the hotel’s wellness zone “Vita borni” features a spacious pool, a sauna landscape, treatment rooms and a gym. From winter 2014 the Zermatterhof boasts 3 restaurants, the fancy Alpine Gourmet Prato Borni, the Brasserie Lusi as well as the cosy Swiss "saycheese!" restaurant. The restaurant terrace, the 2 bars and the hotel garden are perfect for receptions. There are 5 modern, air-conditioned rooms for banquets and conferences for between 5 and 250 people.

There are plenty of ways of expending energy in the fresh, clean Zermatt mountain air: hiking (400 km of paths), climbing and mountaineering (easy via ferrata and 38 four-thousanders), mountain biking (100 km of trails), skiing (Europe’s highest all-year-round skiing region) or playing golf (9-hole course). The Zermatt skiing area is Europe’s highest skiing region, with more than 360 kilometers of stunning pistes in both Switzerland and Italy. Lifts go up as far as the Klein Matterhorn, at 3,883 meters above sea level. Lovers of the snow can enjoy the area even without skis, as this sun-drenched mountain region offers plenty of magnificent views and even more mountain restaurants with glorious sun terraces.
