After backpacking around Prague and Germany for almost two weeks, my husband and I were ready for some relaxation and pampering in Switzerland. We decided to splurge and treat our selves to the winter vacation package at the Matthoil Boutique. Although it's expensive, it was worth every penny!
Our winter package included a 3 night stay at the hotel, ski passes for 2 days (hi Matterhorn!), a discount at a rental ski store, a dinner in their igloo tents, another dinner at the hotel restaurant, a lunch while skiing, two 30 minute messages, and daily breakfast including an assortment of cheeses, meats, eggs made to order, champagne and juice. I am officially a fan of an all inclusive deal!
Upon arriving, we were greeted with a complimentary welcome cocktail at the bar and instantly offered a free upgraded room. Our room was amazing, and included a balcony with a view of the Matterhorn, our own personal Sauna (which we used everyday, and was specifically nice after a day of skiing!), a rain shower, an espresso maker, and sheep skin rugs. Our bags were already delivered to our room by the time we got there, and we were treated to a complimentary bottle of wine and cheese/meat platter.
The hotel is about a 20 minute walk into town, but walking through Zermatt is beautiful. The hotel is secluded with perfect views of the Matterhorn and a 5 minute walk to the bus that takes you to the chair lift for skiing. They even have a storage room to hold all the ski gear.
The hotel goes out of their way to make every little touch special, and we felt this was the perfect way to end our Swissmass trip!
