The Rex is a five-star property in every regard, from service to room to amenities. Blending alpine rustic with modern chic design, The Rex leaves no detail unattended to. Every item and detail in the room has been well thought in its design and aesthetic. The bed is cozy, the mini bar has the right snacks and the light switches next to the bed make you wonder why no one else has them. The breakfast is delicious from the homemade breads to the tea selection. The spa is clean and welcoming. The balcony view of the Matterhorn is almost unbelievable. Just book this hotel. Worth every cent.

Loved the location and being able to see the Matterhorn from our balcony. Very friendly and accommodating staff- we were even able to use the spa after check out time. Unlike many other hotels in Europe, breakfast was included, and it was lovely. The spa was amazing- not just gorgeous but so relaxing! Multiple saunas, a steam bath, pool etc. Our stay at the rex was fabulous.

Lovely hotel

Great stay. Good location and staff very friendly and helpful. Shame there isn't any air con for summer months as it was unbearably hot in the room. Balcony not safe for a toddler and was hard to try and keep him away when we needed the door open to let some air in. Room a little tired but overall a good stay.
