Hotel Monte Rosa

"Charming isn’t quite the right word for the Matterhorn, is it? It’s got more than charm going for it. But let’s say the mountain’s grandeur, its tremendous majesty, its heart-wrenching sublimity, are matched by the more humanly proportioned charm of the Monte Rosa hotel near its base. It’s a tidy Victorian affair with wrought-iron Juliet balconies and red wooden shutters which, in spring and summer, harmonize with the velvety geraniums in the window boxes. The moment it opened in 1847 the Monte Rosa became the de facto headquarters of the mountaineers, geologists, botanists, restless aristocrats, and assorted well-heeled oddballs who had suddenly discovered an urgent need to clamber or merely gaze upon the Swiss Alps. There are some slightly fancier places to stay in Zermatt these days. But there’s only one Monte Rosa, with its marvelous, low-ceilinged, tartan-upholstered bar; its woody, woolly, reassuring rooms; and its restaurant, Belle Epoque, still among the loveliest dining rooms in a town that’s full of them. In the narrow lanes around the hotel are centuries-old chalets made of larch as blackened as frostbitten toes. Looming over it all, of course, like the greatest cathedral spire the world has ever known, is the Matterhorn."

Monte Rosa Boutique Hotel (Zermatt, Swiss Alps) 2 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"The first iteration of the hotel now known as Monte Rosa was the first hotel in Zermatt, catering to mountaineers in search of adventure more than 160 years ago. Today, its stylish guests continue to seek out some of the best ice climbing, tobogganing, and skiing the Alps have to offer, while enjoying more modern amenities like the vast spa and wellness area at its sister property, the Mont Cervin Palace, and complimentary pickup from the train station. Now part of the Michel Reybier Hospitality group, Monte Rosa Boutique Hotel, Monte Rosa Boutique Hotel still boasts plenty of old-world charm, as well as new-world flavors in the form of Argentinean barbecue." - Tablet Hotels

Everything was great from check in to the last moment spent in this hotel. The staff is really friendly and it really feels like home. I definitely recommend Monte Rosa as a home away from home! Thank you for a memorable stay!

This is a great little hotel in Zermatt. Rooms are large The location is amazing just five minutes from the train station. But the best part about the place is the staff. I have traveled all over the world and I have to say the staff at the Monte Rosa are the best most helpful most pleasant group of people I have ever encountered at a hotel. When we asked about going up to the Gornogot, the first thing the front desk did was show us a video of the weather and let us know what to expect for the day. They had umbrellas when it was raining. They offered us a shuttle to the train station on our way back to Täsch and I cannot say enough about every single member who all had the same incredibly cheerful, friendly attitude. Seriously I’d like to find whatever medication they are taking because they were truly amazing. This is a great little hotel to stay at when you’re visiting Zermatt. It is not a five star luxury resort but when you’re here you’re not going be sitting in your room or staying in the hotel. you’re going to be walking around the town visiting the Matterhorn so there’s not a lot of extras in the hotel even though there is a great Swiss resturant at the hotel and a spa across the street we did not use. Only negative was the beds were a little hard and difficult to sleep on but after hiking and walking around for a whole day, we were able to get a good nights sleep. The best way I can describe it is if I ever come back to Zermatt, I will look to stay here. The breakfast is fine., It is your basic Swiss breakfast, but obviously you can order extras if you want.

This hotel is located in the center of Zermatt and they pick and drop you off if you let them know in advance or call them from Zermatt train station.||||We had the Matterhorn suite which lived up to its name! The suite was luxurious with wonderful furnishings, bathroom and very spacious.||||What we really loved was the friendliness and help given to us by the front desk team, especially George. We arrived late but he made sure that we could have a nice dinner despite no reservations and booked table for us for the following night as well.

Every single worker I interacted with here treated me like their long lost best friend. The breakfast is fantastic, the rooms are magical, the staff is top tier, and the memories will last a lifetime. You can’t beat the location of this wonderful hotel either. I’ll never stay anywhere else from now on anytime I’m in Zermatt.

Staying at this quaint hotel was truly a delight from start to finish. Its perfect location made exploring the area incredibly convenient and enjoyable. The staff's helpfulness and attentiveness enhanced the overall experience significantly. Furthermore, the breakfast spread offered was absolutely fantastic, providing a wonderful start to each day. They were also able to cater to dietary requirements.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel in Zermatt for two nights and our only regret is that we did not have more time in this wonderful town at this charming hotel. The rooms are clean and lovely with a turndown service offered. The front desk staff was helpful, friendly, and helped us to feel welcome and offered suggestions of restaurants in town. The breakfast area had plenty of options to choose from and the food was done well. There is no pool or spa facilities on site, but they are close by at a sister hotel in town. One of the little details my wife loved are the small elderflower candies available at the front desk. She mentioned to the staff that she loved them, so later that evening there were two elderflower candies on our pillows at the turndown service. This demonstrates to us that the staff cares about making your stay memorable and the thoughtful attention to detail they provide. 10 out of 10 for this hotel!

After getting picked up from the train station, we arrived and walked into the reception area while our luggage was getting delivered to our room. That's when the fun began! The hotel's staff were simply amazing! They immediately made us feel at home and treated us like long lost friends, wanting us to relax and enjoy the moment. George, Gaia, and Rachel were wonderful to us! They were aware that my wife and I were celebrating our 30th Anniversary and they treated us like royalty. If I ever open a hotel, I'm going to get to Zermatt and steal George, Gaia, and Rachel! The Monte Rosa is a beautiful historic hotel with spaciously comfortable rooms with views of the Matterhorn and the town below. After traveling for a month in France and Switzerland, my wife and I had some beautiful moments and our memorable time in Zermatt was exceptional thanks to the Monte Rosa Hotel and the exceptional Gaia, George, and Rachel! Gracias!!!

We have been spoiled. Hotel Monte Rosa in Zermatt is probably the best place we have ever stayed in. The location in central Zermatt is perfect. From our balcony (one of two in our room) we had a view of the Matterhorn mountain and the Kirchplatz town square where there were performances in the evening. The room was elegant and well-maintained. There was a living room area with a desk, a table for four, a sofa, coffee table, and a Bluetooth enabled stereosystem. There were two bathrooms and a walk-in closet area with four large closets. There was a television in each of the two principle areas. The hotel staff was great. They provided information about the local lifts, trains, spa-gym, restaurants, and other town services. When I mentioned that one of the multiple lightbulbs in one of the bathrooms was out, it was replaced in less than an hour. The hotel had WebCam views from the various mountain peaks. Use of the spa-gym was included. The breakfast at the hotel was excellent and complementary transportation was provided for the short trip to and from the train station.
