How to reach your hotel in Zermatt

Zermatt is a small town. All hotels in town are within walking distance of the cable cars and the rail station.

You can take an electric bus if you book a hotel farther away. Many hotels can pick you up from the station as well.

Learn all about traveling to and in the town in our Zermatt guide.

Where to stay in Zermatt

Book a hotel close to the rail station if you plan to make day trips to the Gornergrat and to other towns in the Matter Valley, or to more areas of the Valais. You can quickly board regular trains, the cogwheel train to the Gornergrat and the Glacier Express here.

Hotels farther south from the station are closer to the valley stations of the mountains Sunnegga-Rothorn and Matterhorn Glacier Paradise. The southern districts, such as Winkelmatten, are quieter and farther away from the lively main street.

How to have Matterhorn views from your hotel

The center of Zermatt is densely built. This means you won’t necessarily have Matterhorn views from your room. The quieter areas south of the main street have better chances of unobstructed views. Always check your hotel room description and pictures, to make sure what you’ll see.

Check our overview of Swiss mountain hotels for guaranteed panoramic views.

Cheaper alternatives to Zermatt

There are fine budget hotels in Zermatt. But if you need a wider selection of affordable hotels, look into the nearby villages Täsch, Randa, or St. Niklaus. You won’t have the grand Matterhorn views as in Zermatt, but the Matter Valley is still beautiful here.

Grächen is even further from Zermatt. It’s on a plateau above the valley and can only be reached by bus or car. The mountain panorama is fantastic here.

Page author: AnnikaSince early childhood I've been visiting Switzerland during my holidays and I just fell in love with the country. I spent many summers in the Bernese Oberland, which still feels like my second home, and then started to explore other areas. Traveling, hiking and photographing in the Swiss Alps are my absolute favorite activities.
