The hotel is quite run down and needs updates. The room for 3 adults was small, but we managed. The shower was not very good.

The location was ideal. Breakfast being included.
The stairs were narrow and many. Not recommended for ederly.
Sharing a balcony with neighbouring room.
Very basic room.
No real front desk. The first interaction was from someone in the restaurant “what’s your name take your key “ Room was on the 4th floor no elevator and no one offered to help. The room was barely big enough for the bed.
We needed an adapter but there was no one to help. We asked at a pharmacy and they helped us. When we told them where we were staying they said “Oh, that’s not a hotel “. We agree
If you want to sleep at night do not stay here. The hotel is rated as a 3 star, but I would give it a 1 star. It’s located above a noisy bar that is loud at night and has no sound proofing. I would not recommend this hotel
Great location, the room was a little bit small but we were out most of the time. r I should add on the street people were singing and laughing late into the night. It woke us up and the kids had a little bit of hard time sleeping.
Excellent location in the city center. Next to the church and the famous Hotel Monte Rosa. With a view of Matterhorn. However, the hotel is a very old wood building with very small rooms, no elevator, no English TV channel and poor WiFi.
When you visit the property do not carry big baggage

The hotel was under construction but nice with an excellent location. The food options around were quite expensive which was expected. We spent majority of a day in the park with an excellent view of the Matterhorn (5 minute walk).

Basic property. No stairs. Definitely dated and older but clean and works! One of the cheaper options in zermatt and had a 4 person bed room.
The room was clean and tidy. This would have been a lovely stay however at midnight a drunk man was beating on the doors and screaming. I had to call the police.
The problem with the rooms are that there is no door or entrance which safeguards the rooms. Anyone can walk up the stairs and did in this case.
