There was a view of the Matterhorn which was spectacular. Enjoyed the restaurant on the premises, food was delicious. Was within walking distance from train station which was a plus. Accommodations were great. Wish we had more time in Switzerland to explore more.

Very nice remodeled hotel in a perfect location. The room was clean and quiet with the windows closed. Darling patio. The receptionist was very nice and helpful. This is an easy walk to the train station. I would highly recommend this place. The only downside was the restaurant. The waitress was very rude which surprised me. She doesn't care about her job at all. It was my worst experience in Switzerland. The breakfast was awful.

Very nice hotel. I lucked out and got a room with a balcony. Room and facilities were well thought out to accommodate a ski vacation. Room was very clean and housekeeping was excellent. Price was on the low end for Zermatt so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I would stay here again and would recommend it to a single or couple travelling for a ski vacation.

The property looks so authentic and aged while on the inside it has been so nicely updated with really nice modern features and fixtures. This part of town of gorgeous, the restaurant downstairs amazing and the view from the balcony is awe inspiring. Best of all, the front desk staff was really helpful in pointing us in the right direction with our options for exploring the mountains.

Zermatt is mainly closed in May. First thing hôtel told us. Could have been useful pre holiday information. Main complaint of resort was the constant noise of helicopters and building construction. Hotel Derby was open and very welcoming but walking trails also closed from village. Won’t return
