With the renovation, it presents one of the most beautiful sun terraces in Zermatt, a wellness area with a unique view of the Matterhorn and newly renovated rooms with a lot of alpine chic. Cancellation during the winter season: From 3 days before arrival: 100% of the total price of the stay. Cancellation during the summer season: From 7 days before arrival: 100% of the total price of the stay. Bookings with Early Booking Rate (Non-Refundable Rate) cannot be cancelled.

A 4-star hotel accessible solely with mountain rail. 25 rooms, a restaurant, bar, sun terrace, lounge and library as well as wellness area. Bikers discover paradise with far-reaching views right at their front door: 100 kilometers of single trails for all levels and 4 cross stretches with great flow at heights between 1400 and 3100 meters - easily reached from the Riffelhaus at 2500 meters.

Typically Swiss Hotel

As Mark Twain would have no doubt agreed, solely the magnificent views of the Matterhorn make journeys here worthwhile. And this historic hotel, dating back to 1855, has of course been lovingly restored over the years. Nostalgic rooms recall the pioneering years of tourism. Regional dishes, tranquility and most friendly ambiance furthermore entice guests here.

Snow Sports Hotel

Dating back to 1853, it opened as one of the first hotels for mountaineers in Zermatt. Today, the Hotel Riffelhaus shines as a comfortable ski-in and ski-out hotel with tradition, charm and fresh flair. The 4-star establishment offering Swiss cuisine stands proudly in the heart of the ski region at 2,500 metres above sea level, at the foot of the world-renowned Matterhorn. Guests can enjoy the breathtaking views of the majestic mountain in style from the sun terrace or directly from the whirlpool.
