The historic Monte Rosa has been a star of the Zermatt hotel scene since it opened in 1853 – and it’s been run by the Seiler family from the start, so they know a thing or two about making your stay special. They’ve kept things traditional over the years, and there’s an authentic look from top to bottom, with exposed beams, stone walls and antique furniture dotted here and there.
After a day on the slopes, sip an après tipple in Edward’s Bar, which was named in honour of Edward Whymper (the first person to climb the Matterhorn) who stayed at the hotel. Fancy some off-slope R&R? Wander a couple of minutes to the Hotel Mont Cervin Palace to get free access to the huge indoor pool and spa.
You’ll be staying bed and breakfast here, and there’s a hot and cold buffet spread to set you up for the day. And later on, you’ve got afternoon tea and cakes to keep you going before heading out to explore Zermatt's many excellent restaurants.
