Hotel-Garni Plateau Rosa

Great location!

We picked this hotel because it has some rooms with a view of the Matterhorn. The staff were very friendly, the hotel is super clean and the beds are comfortable. It is quite a hike to the hotel from the train station so you may want to take a taxi to the hotel with your luggage. Breakfast was good and breakfast room had big picture windows with a view of the Madderhorn.

I was so glad it was a bit away from the town center, although it was only 15 min walk away. With convenient electric bus, going around was so easy. And the fact that you have no other building between your room and Matterhorn, what more would you want. I want to go back there again soon even with exorbitant price in Switzerland.

Where do I start?! I’m so happy I went with Plateau-Rosa for my birthday trip! It was exactly what I was looking for - quiet, relaxing, and with a great view of the Matterhorn. I was warmly greeted by Pierre at the front desk and shown to my room, which was tidy, bright, and had a large balcony. Location-wise, it’s about 20 mins walk from the train station though there’s a bus. I didn’t mind walking as I got to look around. The hotel is located right across from the cable car station so ideal for heading up to Glacier paradise. You can also go for a hike on the hill across from the hotel (I snapped a pic of the hotel from there). The spa with sauna is tiny but really comfy - I guess I benefited from going during the offseason! Breakfast options were great especially the various Swiss breads you could try and the staff there was always kind and helpful. If returning to Zermatt or recommending to someone else, without a doubt I’d recommend Plateau-Rosa!
