Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers stunning Matterhorn views, but it lacks value for money. The rooms are well-equipped with all the necessary amenities and have a cozy bedroom setup. The service, although lacking a ski pass vendor, is top-notch. The location is superb, close to the village center and with easy access to see the Matterhorn. Dining includes cooked eggs, offering a decent culinary experience.
