Book a Room with a View

Several guests mentioned that the views from the rooms were spectacular. Opting for a room with a balcony facing the Matterhorn comes highly recommended.

Consider the Access Times

The hotel is only accessible via the Gondola, and the last Gondola to Schwarzsee is at 4 pm Zermatt time. Guests should plan their arrival accordingly to avoid a 2.5-hour hike to reach the hotel.

Be Mindful of Room Selection

Some guests found the triple rooms to be small and cramped, especially those in the roof slope. Consider this when choosing a room, especially for a longer stay or if traveling with multiple people.

Plan for Remote Location

The hotel is in a remote and tranquil spot, offering clear star-filled nights and beautiful sunrises. However, guests should be prepared for limited access to nearby amenities and plan accordingly.

Check Lift Access

Access to the hotel is dependent on the Furi to Schwarzsee gondola, which can be affected by weather conditions. Guests should be aware of this potential limitation when planning their travel to and from the hotel.

Consider Dining Options

While breakfast received positive feedback, some guests found the dinner options to be limited or not meeting their expectations. Guests with specific dietary needs should plan accordingly.

Pack Light and Comfortably

As the hotel is located at 2583m and accessible only via the Gondola, guests should pack light and be prepared for the possibility of sharing a room with multiple people.

Be Prepared for Limited Services

Due to the remote location, guests should be aware that the hotel's services and amenities may be more limited compared to those in more accessible locations.

Enjoy the Unique Photography Opportunities

The hotel's location offers fantastic opportunities for photography, especially for capturing the Matterhorn. Photography enthusiasts should take advantage of this picturesque setting.

Be Aware of Staff Interactions

While many guests praised the friendliness of the staff, some mentioned instances of rudeness or unhelpfulness. Guests should be prepared for varied experiences with the hotel staff.
