Hotel, restaurants and location are great - be wary though that it cost CHF150+ just to get to the front door once you have added up the parking in the previous town, taxis and trains - this is not communicated in advance by the hotel at the time of booking unfortunately.

Would recommend to anyone - AMAZING

An amazing hotel and I would recommend to anyone. The only downsides are that the train up and down from the hotel are not included when this is the only way to get there and the only other thing was the pillows were paper thin and very uncomfortable. But other than that, everything was perfect and the staff could not do enough for you from arriving in Zermatt to when you leave

The setting is unbelievable. Even the experience of arriving is an adventure. However, the front desk staff, particularly Stephan, were rude and unhelpful. Because it was our first time in Europe/Zermatt skiing, we needed some explanation as to how the lift/train tickets coordinated and how we would get from place to place. We felt very snubbed when we asked these questions. If we walked by the front desk toward the bar or restaurant, we were not greeted unless we initiated the greeting. No where else in Switzerland did we have this experience. It really down graded the stay for us.

Modern resort with a lot of amenities yet kept in a mountain cabin style. Most staffs are friendly and helpful especially from reception and housekeeping. Great view of the Matterhorn and Alps in general. However, some guests are rude and selfish whom probably just here to spend one night and think they own the right to make other guests uncomfortable and picking on staffs as well. I strongly suggest all guests to be respectful to other guests as well as staffs.

A flawless blend of service and scenery!

I recommend this hotel without hesitation. From the personalised pickup from the train, to providing tickets to the railcar up the mountains, to the quaint and charming minitrain to the hotel, arriving was a delight. Each and every employee had a smile and a kind word. I was travelling on my own, and with an injury to my leg, and I felt as well cared for as if I were in my own home. My bags carried, my needs accommodated. I received an upgrade to a lush room with access to a balcony under the Matterhorn itself! Dinner was spectacular, and Alcindo Costa, the maître d'hôtel, treated me like a queen, which is so special when one is dining solo! The bed was exceedingly comfortable, the turndown service unexpectedly lovely, and the detailed level of control of the lighting and curtains of the room right from the bedside was a fabulous touch. This spa and resort is very special, and made me feel as though I was a valued customer. In contrast with a miserable experience the day after in Sankt Moritz Hotel Steffani, this was absolute heaven. So grateful, and I sincerely hope I am afforded the opportunity to return soon!

Amazing Hotel

It was my 9th stay at this hotel and each time I return it is with the same great joy. In spite of the fact that I got a problem with my knee and after only one and a half day, I was not able to ski for the remaining days, I had a fantastic week. First, the location is just amazing... The staff is so professional, helpful and kind. The food in all restaurants is very good. The rooms are very cosy and equipped with everything you could ask for, and even more… far above expectations - they have thought about some small useful details both in the rooms and in the bathrooms, many of which you don't always find in other 5* hotels. The only little ”minus” that I wish to point out (and other people have expressed the same) is the fact that, in comparison with other 5* hotels, there is no soft background music in any of the restaurants - not even in the Waliserkeller which is supposed to be a more joyful place. This time I had dinner several times in Al Bosco and there were not too many clients so the silence was rather disturbing - the few clients hardly dared to talk normally and were whispering... All we heard was some noise of plates being moved and from the kitchen. Even in the bar during the day there is no music at all, totally silent, so it is not really inspiring to go for a drink in a nice atmosphere – you rather go to your room. In the evening from around 19h.00, there is some live music on an electronic piano. That said, I strongly recommend this hotel.

Fantastic Property!

Fantastic resort with amazing view of The Matterhorn! The pictures online don’t do it justice! You need to experience in person! Our room was lovely with plenty of space. All the employees are friendly, especially the Maitre D. Zermatt can be crazy crowded, but the hotel takes you step by step from the car park to their front door!

Love the Remoteness

We visitited Gstaad, before going to Zermatt. While, Gstadd has a lot ot offer in shopping and dining, the Riffelalp Resort offered a whole new experience. We were running behind schedule and were not quite aware you had to take a small train up the hill to the resort which ran less seldom after 6:40. The staff actuall called me to check on us and our arrival. Not being famiar with the distance, I indicted we would be there around 6:00. Around 6:30, the staff called to make sure we were okay and our journey was okay and if we needed anyting. I have traveled all of the world and never had a Hotel or Resort to call and check on me- twice. Once the staff learned we would miss the 6:40 train, he asked if he could arrange dinner for us while we waited for the next one and would make arrangements for our luggage at the restauant and a cab which would be ready upon our arrival. This was the beginning of the exemplary service, which for the next five days, was exceptional. Upon arrival on the train, a snow mobile and sled for our luggage awaited us. Wasn't expecting that! -the proper gentleman, put our luggage on the sled, ask my wife to sit on the snow mobile and in an english accent, said sir "you may stand here and hold well to the basket" and we headed to the resort. Location -cannot be closer to the slopes as you can sit on your balcony and watch the skiers ski by. The restaruants at the hotel are excellent and have the style and grace of fine dining with a family feel.

Outstanding hotel with a view of the Matterhorn

After the train ride up the mountainside from the picturesque village of Zermatt and a short tram ride from the station, we arrived at the one-of-a-kind, five-star hotel with beautiful accommodations and breathtaking views of the Matterhorn. Our charming room with detailed woodwork and walls of floral fabric, featured two balconies, both with an incredible view of the mountain. The tranquil setting, far from cars and buses, encouraged rest and relaxation. Seemingly limitless numbers of hiking trails were available from the resort or by taking the train to other stations on the Gornergrat railway. After a day of hiking, the "world's highest outdoor pool" provided relief with it's constant temperature of 95 degrees and multiple forms of bubbling action. The unique grotto in the spa area featured saline baths and waterfalls. We enjoyed dinners at Ristorante al Bosco and the breakfast buffet each morning. The beauty of the Matterhorn cannot be overstated. We left with wonderful memories of the Matterhorn at sunrise, the Matterhorn at sunset, the sky above the Matterhorn filled with thousands of stars, the alpine meadows lined with trails within site of the Matterhorn, and lying in the bubbles in the pool with a view of the Matterhorn. The lovely accommodations, the peaceful environment, and the beautiful location blended luxury and nature into a fabulous experience!

Vista espectacular acceso caro

La vista privilegiada. El hotel cómodo y muy atentos. Todo es de primera Lo único malo es que la única forma para llegar al hotel es un tren “interno” de esa zona y cada viaje redondo sale en 54 CHF (unos 67 dlls por persona) Así que si tu plan es disfrutar el pueblo quédate en Zermatt pero si lo que quieres son días de paz y tranquilidad estás en el lugar correcto

Je ne recommande pas cette chambre . Cependant literie ultra confortable / couette en duvet et chambre très calme. Petit déjeuner excellent Le service de navette est très bien organisé.

En recepción puedes organizar actividades si así lo deseas. En el hotel hay Ping pon, boliche y hasta un kindergarden! La vista desde la piscina exterior es sin duda hermosa! A el lugar se llega en un tren adicional que está cerca de la estácion principal de Zermatt. El hotel es bastante privado ya que se encuentra arraigado de la sociedad así que no esperes tiendas (solo hay un restaurante), el restaurante del hotel es delicioso y hay gran variedad de opciones a elegir.
