호텔 알펜블릭

My group loved the Alpenblick. Christoph and his team were incredible hosts. The views of the surrounding Alps are breathtaking. The rooms have balconies looking onto this beautiful country and the access by train to Zermatt is simple. Breakfast is very good and so is the evening meals at the restaurant. They treat you like family, and in my book, that is the highest compliment one can make.

This was one of the most charming hotels I ever visited. The entire place has a local, rustic feel to it, and yet, nothing feels old and run-down. Everything that should be renovated once in a while is. The room I had was impeccably clean and contained everything a solo traveler needs (including a wide bed, which was a blessing for a side-sleeper like me). The view from the room was equally stunning, overlooking a large part of the valley and countless gorgeous mountains. The best part about this hotel, however, is the staff. They were unbelievably friendly. You could tell that it's a family-run business that genuinely cares about its customers. To give the best example of this: I had to leave early, before the included breakfast is served. In such a situation, every hotel I've been to in the past usually shrugged, smiled and said "we're very sorry for the inconvenience." Here, they actually showed me how to use the coffee machine, where to find juice, milk and so forth, and even prepared a plate full of cold cuts, cheese and bread for me. Would definitely go again.
