3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat

Absolutely incredible. I cannot stress how cool of an experience this was. I stayed here in April so it was still very snowy and beautiful. Being able to be up here at sunset and sunrise was surreal. The rooms are very cozy and clean. If available, definitely select a room with a view of the Matterhorn, it is worth it. The dinner (included in hotel room) was fantastic. Delicious and elevated. The dinner is included but you must pay for drinks, which were not expensive. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I absolutely loved my stay here and would definitely do it again. Note that you have to pay for your own ticket up the mountain on the rail. If you’re going to be in this area for more than a day, it is worth it to get the unlimited pass so you can easily traverse all the cables without issue.

Absolutely beautiful hotel! We loved our stay. We really wished there were more areas to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air, aside from the restaurants. We spent a significant amount of time in our room between hikes and dinner since the wooden benches are pretty uncomfortable and hard to come by. I also wish there were alternative methods for getting back to Zermatt when the train is down. We were stranded for 3.5 hours and had to rearrange all our transportation for the day.

We chose two rooms for 3 pax as it can’t add additional bed to a room. It’s expensive yet it’s worth it! We managed to see the stunning Matterhorn wf the first ray of sunlight hits the peak causing it to glow with a golden hue. But dun really like the dinner , but breakfast is good 2nd edition-(29/11/25) Still cudnt take my eyes frm you- majestic Matterhorn- 2d1n in 3100 kulmhotel is really lifetime experience. These are the 2 rooms we stayed n onli at sunrise, u can see the golden Matterhorn. At sunset, the Matterhorn is awesome too. Last pic was the breakfast

Great service quality, impressive view towards legendary mountains straight from the room, milky way and stars clearly visible, good quality food at over 3000m altitude. Could be even more perfect with a humidifier in the room.

I would definitely recommend this hotel for a nights stay, being that close to the Matterhorn at night and first thing in the morning was magical. The food and service was excellent and the staff were all friendly and welcoming. Just be aware that when booking this hotel you still have to pay for your ticket on the train to get to the location and that adds some significant additional cost and so you need to plan accordingly. For this reason I would recommend a single nights stay rather than multiple nights unless you are hiking the mountains over a few days and want to use this as your base. The observatory is open in October and December if you are looking to take advantage of that.

Terrible experience with dinner and breakfast, in particular the food staff, and the low quality of food for such an expensive stay. No vegetarian menu offered for their included dinner for my vegetarian wife. We were not asked about dietary restrictions either prior or at check-in. You're better off just visiting via train and staying elsewhere at lower elevation and lower price, and probably better food.

By far one of the most amazing hotels my husband and I have stayed at. The view from the rooms is unbeatable and it’s great to have the area to yourself after the last train runs and for sunrise. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. My complaint is that they blast music outside and the speakers were right under our windows and we could hear it even with them shut. After dinner around 7 PM when all visitors but hotel guests were gone I talked to the concierge and asked her to turn it down or off because we weren’t able to rest even with the windows shut and she said she would but it didn’t. Finally after 10:00 when it was still blaring I called again and was insistent that they turn it off because we couldn’t sleep and she finally did. Considering there were no longer any visitors besides hotel guests at 7:00 and no one was seated outside, there was no reason for music to be blasting and disturbing guests.

Our stay at 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat was fantastic! The room was spotless and comfortable, with a great view of the mountains. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring the area. Highly recommend

This hotel is truly unreal. Prepare yourself for a longer review! I stayed here for one night in April 2022. Was it pricey? Technically yes, but also kinda not. I will explain in a moment! Getting to the hotel: You need to ride the Gornergrat to the hotel. This is not free and will add an extra $40ish CHF each way for everyone. When arriving during the winter time you will probably be on a train filled with a ton of skiers. Get comfortable for the 40 minute train ride and enjoy the views. They are incredible! Sit on the right side for the best views of the matterhorn when ascending the mountain. Once the train reaches the final station you will need to disembark and head to the hotel. I recommend wait a moment to let all the skiers off since you will probably have a few suitcases. Once you are off find the first set of elevators to take you to the hotels ground floor. Then enter the building to find the second set to get to the lobby. Things to do at the Hotel: Now this is the best part about this hotel. This hotel you want to book as an escape. There is not much up there and it is wonderful. They have Zooom which is a virtual reality experience. There is also a small chapel and a few gift shops. If you come in the winter you can ski right from the hotel down or in the summer you can go hiking. However even if you do not do any of those, my favorite area is above the hotel where you can see everything. They have a small lookout point that allows you to see all 29 peaks that surround you. Honestly an incredible place to see the stars. It is so quiet and such a great escape. Food: Now for food you have only 2 options. For lunch there is a cafe style food. However for dinner and breakfast they open their restaurant up for a great meal. Now included in the hotel rate is a 4 course dinner and a hot breakfast buffet. Honestly it was delicious and incredible! Rooms: Each of the rooms are named after one of the peaks that surround it. They will tell you the history of that peak and your room will include a rock from the peak. No matter where your room is, you will have a phenomenal view. Overall this hotel will always be one of the most unique hotels I have ever stayed at. 100% would stay here again.

very basic food on the cafeteria side, they have an adjacent sit down restaurant. you visit for the views of the matterhorn and the valleys below.

Absolutely loved the unique experience and the view of matterhorn from the hotel. Staff were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who will be traveling to the area. One thing to be aware is that the altitude is so high that you might get mountain sickness. My husband had headache and I had short of breath pretty much the entire time, but those were small price to pay for the fantastic experience we had!!

A unique hotel with a fantastic view. Breakfast and dinner are included and are great. The price is high but considering the unique location and meals included it was worth it to me. Be aware you will need to take a train to this hotel and restaurant. The last train leaves Zermatt at around 730pm. If you miss this there is no way to get to your hotel. The train is 30 minutes long and you will need to pay. They do offer multi day passes and discounts for a Swiss travel pass. A 3 day Gornergratt pass for 2 people with the Swiss pass discount was around 380. Make sure you factor in this cost. I did not when booking.
