In the very spot where the legendary “Lauber Inn” pioneered tourism in Zermatt from 1839 onwards, Monte Rosa brings to life the sweet nostalgia of the winter sports of yesteryear and the tradition of Swiss Alpine hospitality. Thanks to extremely comfortable concessions to modernity, lovers of authentic mountain living have been coming here for a century and a half to enjoy the tranquility of an unspoiled environment, free of cars and ostentation. Lovers of fine cuisine appreciate the dishes as much as the decor in Zermatt’s most beautiful Belle-Epoque dining room. Seasons go by, yet generosity and smiles remain ever-present, as does the unchanging joy of feeling warmly welcomed for five generations.
