For more than 160 years Zermatt’s iconic palace hotel has been inseparable from the majestic 4,478 m-high solitary giant after which it is named. The Matterhorn, the ultimate mountain symbol, makes Zermatt hum with a unique charm, without any cars to disturb the tranquility and pure air of this marvelous sanctuary. The equally legendary “Grand Lady of Zermatt” has managed to preserve the warm and refined atmosphere of a cozy cocoon pervaded by timeless Alpine elegance. From the fabulous serenity of the spa to the refined delights of the restaurants, the mood is always one of relaxation and the pleasure of experiencing the most beautiful mountain dreams in complete freedom.
