“Great location for ski holidays!”

The location is absolutely spectacular, ski in - ski out. The staff is super friendly and the food was very good.

Amazing stay. The room was very nice with even a shared terrace! Great views Half board was good

Ski in and out, wonderful food

“Absolutely fantastic”

Best hotel if you want to enjoy peace and a stunning view. After skiing is done, only the hotel guests remain, so the atmosphere is very calm and quiet. You can take a small walk in the evening, look at the stars, and enjoy the full Matterhorn view almost all to yourself. It’s also amazing to start your day already on the slopes. I really liked the hotel, for the price, and considering that it is located up in the mountains in the middle of nowhere, it is truly excellent. The dinner was very tasty with huge portions, and I liked that you could choose from a few different options. Compared to dinner, the breakfast selection is not as extensive, but it is absolutely fine. The staff was very kind and welcoming.

Perfect location

“Perfect location, friendly service, rustic and simple accomodation”

The staff were so helpful, friendly and very hard working. The breakfast was simple but delicious and the dinner was absolutely perfect! The location was great, away from the crowds of tourists and waking up to the view of the Matterhorn will stay with me forever

“VeryGood”

・The view from the window was amazing. I could see the Matterhorn from the window. ・The room was clean. I arrived before the check-in time, but they kept my luggage for me. ・Hiking trails are just a 0-minute walk from the inn.

“An absolutely stunning location where the room rate includes half board accommodation”

There is no question: the unique selling point is this hotel's unbeatable location perched high on a mountain overlooking both Zermatt and - far more importantly - the Matterhorn. The view from the hotel and its terrace is utterly breathtaking, with a perfect, unimpeded view of this most iconic of Alpine peaks. Hotel Schwartzsee is situated 100m from the Schwartzsee cable car station, which is the only practical way of accessing the hotel. If you're a skier (not that we are), this means that you can be on the slopes long before the cable car starts bringing skiers up from Zermatt, and the slopes were still open when we visited the second week in April 2025. In summer, it would be an ideal base for hiking, although there was too much snow for this when we were there. Because of the hotel's remote location, accommodation is on a half board basis, with breakfast and a three course dinner included in the room rate. The food was hearty with a choice between a meat-based and a vegetarian option for main course. The first night the main course choice was between roast chicken and mashed potatoes or a tomato gnocchi, whilst the second evening, fondue (accompanied by bread, rosti and pickled gherkins and onions) was served for all. A Muslim family at the next table asked if their fondue could be made without using alcohol (given that fondue includes white wine) and the chef was happy to oblige. If you are the hungry type, the restaurant offers a more extensive lunch menu that caters for the skiers/day tourists. If you're trying to optimise your budget, the hotel offers some rooms with shared bathroom facilities - ours was a four bed room, with bunk beds and a sink in the room. An absolute highlight was seeing chamois grazing around the hotel. Wi-fi coverage was good enough to be able to conduct business meetings.

“View is exceptional. Room can be improved.”

The Matterhorn is literally in front of you.

We missed our last cable car so we can not check in on the day,We asked staff member to postpone they are so kind to agree. We successfully check in in the second day,And they even gave us the room earlier than usual. The environment the view and the staff member are all good. We had a great stay. Extraordinary experience with This hotel.

“Like staying in a mountain hut with all the amenities and services of a hotel.”

Fantastic location on the top of Zermatt at 2580m

“Amazing.”
