Travelers' Choice
Immerse yourself in an innovative hotel experience at the foot of the Matterhorn. Nestling in the incomparable Alpine world and facing the Horu (the local name for the Matterhorn), our two timber and stone chalets are an authentic oasis of peace and relaxation for discerning individualists and families. Rustic and modern, traditional and trendy – in Matthiol, contrasts collide and blend into one harmonious entity. The exclusive charm of our hotel is reflected not only in the attractively appointed guest rooms and suites but also in the culinary finesse of our chef de cuisine. Our spa promises balm for body and soul. Escape everyday routine and tank up on new energy.

Everything was Superb! Wonderful staff. Very accommodating. The fondue is to die for. Must try both the deluxe with truffle and the standard. Sat in the private “hobbit house”! Excellent experience and service. Worth every penny ! The atmosphere, background tasteful music and service excellence. Perfect evening to close our skiing trip in Zermatt!

We could not fault our stay at the Matthiol! We stayed for a week for our winter Honeymoon and to ski, and it was absolutely perfect! The rooms are beautifully appointed and spacious. The views are gorgeous and the location is just a short walk from one of the free bus stops. The breakfast buffet was THE BEST we have ever had, and the restaurant, Filet et Fils, was brilliant (the fondue huts were also a delicious and cool experience). The staff and service were absolute stand-outs. They were so helpful, providing recommendations and helping to coordinate ski hire etc. We will definitely come back next time we're in Zermatt, and we can't wait to stay again. Thank you to the Matthiol for making our Honeymoon so special!

We love the Matthiol. We've stayed there twice. Beautiful boutique hotel with gorgeous, well-equipped rooms. The staff are wonderful - a joy. The location is a bit of a walk from downtown but it's worth it for the quiet and the view. Access to trams/lifts and trails is excellent. The breakfast buffet is superb and the staff will augment with cook-to-order items such as eggs, bacon, etc. The dinner menu is somewhat limited but the food is excellent. Very attentive and fun restaurant staff. We will visit Matthiol again!

Amazing experience. We booked the spa room and did not regret it. Nothing better than sauna / steam / tub time after a long day of hiking. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly, especially Dany in the restaurant who served us for dinner and breakfast over two days. The hotel is a bit out of the main city center, but that just made it all the better. The walk to the center was only 15 mins so it wasn’t too much when we did want to head into town. All in all a fabulous experience, we will definitely be back.

A+ and 5 stars no questions asked. If I could move anywhere in the world it would be this hotel. The entire staff was like a family. Jaqueline was fantastic. She was extremely professional and friendly. She made this experience feel like no other. Sobi was also amazing. He picked us up and made the grass clean every day. His brother Attila was a gentlemen as well. Lukas was also great. He sold us on staying here I’ve the OMNI and other resorts. He was great. Marieke was outstanding and the staff was A++. The hotel was stunning. The view of the Matterhorn was of no other. We could see it from our balcony and bathtub. The attention to detail was incredible. My wife and I took mud baths in the spa. The spa was amazing. This place is special and made our time in Zermatt so special. Can’t wait to come back in winter!

Hotel Matthiol is a relaxing slice of luxury that I highly recommend. It's located on the edge of town, however it's closer to the Matterhorn and quieter than the hustle of town. We were even treated to locals herding sheep around the hotel which was super cute to watch. Their service was amazing with shuttles to and from the train station even at late notice. Breakfast was very high quality with omelettes made to order. The room was next level and certainly a peak of luxury. I loved the attention to detail in the decor and the many ways you could relax waiting for that view of the Matterhorn from behind the clouds. Thanks and wish we could have stayed longer!

Our stay at Matthiol was amazing! We came to Zermatt for five nights of relaxation and hiking and this hotel was our perfect home base. Our balcony had incredible views, the bed was super comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious (shoutout to the ginger shots and croissants). We liked that it was a little out of the hustle and bustle of the town and the walk always felt great after an indulgent dinner. We also loved the spa “labyrinth” and managed to go several days of our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful and we can’t wait to go back!

Very comfortable room. Staff friendly and helpful in every way. Location was peaceful. It was a bit of a walk to get to downtown where the shops and restaurants are located but the benefit of that walk is the hotel is quiet.
