Rooms & Suites

Wellness Hotel Alpenhof offers a range of accommodations, from compact Design Single Rooms (13 m^2) to spacious Penthouse Deluxe Suites (100 m^2). The split-level suites feature two bedrooms, a living area with a fireplace, and balconies with Matterhorn views. All rooms include a minibar with free soft drinks, a Nespresso machine, and Wi-Fi. Bathrooms come with either a shower or bathtub, and select rooms have heated floors.

Dining & Drinks

The hotel serves a breakfast buffet with regional specialties like dried meats from their own farm and homemade birch muesli. Dinner includes a 5-course menu with seasonal ingredients at Restaurant Alpenhof or the traditional Swiss Restaurant Schäferstube. Guests can enjoy cocktails in the piano bar with live music or fine whiskys and cigars in the Cigar Lounge.

Wellness & Activities

The spa area includes a heated indoor pool, hot tub, Finnish sauna, and steam bath. Treatments like the Lift MESO Concept use hyaluronic acid for skin rejuvenation. In winter, the Sunnegga Cable Car (across the street) provides ski access. Summer activities include hiking 400 km of trails, glacier tours, and biking. Helicopter flights over the Matterhorn are available.

Location & Transport

The hotel is in central Zermatt, opposite the Sunnegga Cable Car Station and a 10-minute walk from the village center. Zermatt has no cars; guests arrive by train and use the hotel's free e-taxi transfer from the station. The Gornergrat Railway and Glacier Ride provide access to 38 nearby 4,000-meter peaks.

Services & Extras

Guests receive a complimentary transfer from Zermatt Train Station. The ski room includes equipment storage and changing facilities. Half-board packages feature 5-course dinners, and all-inclusive options cover meals, drinks, and spa access. The hotel offers bike rentals, guided tours, and ski pass discounts. Visp is the legal jurisdiction for disputes.

“The location proves ideal, a brief walk to Zermatt's core with the Sunnegga lift conveniently across the street. I noticed that the wellness area, complete with indoor pool and sauna, offers a haven, though earlier closing hours might cut visits short. With what I saw of the lavish dinners and views of the Matterhorn from the suites, half-board seems a worthwhile indulgence here.”
