Grand Hotel Zermatterhof

Nestled below the soaring Matterhorn, the idyllic mountain resort town of Zermatt in southern Switzerland boasts the five-star Grand Hotel Zermatterhof. Totally remodeled in recent years, the 84-room Zermatterhof offers double guestrooms, as well as suites with a private fireplace and Jacuzzi. A large number of rooms have a balcony, affording spectacular views of the Matterhorn. Two restaurants and two bars offer culinary diversity -- dine on French classics in the sophisticated Prato Borni, or enjoy an evening in the beautiful Restaurant Lusi, where a stunning glass dome gives the impression of a spacious winter garden and the terrace offers great views of the Matterhorn.

Our family took a memorable ski vacation to Zermatt last winter, when we were fortunate enough to discover Grand Hotel Zermatterhof. Set within a private park with an outstanding Matterhorn view (most rooms also boast a view), the recently renovated hotel is the perfect antidote to a strenuous day on the slopes. After our runs, we cozied up around the fireplace in our spacious suite, dreaming of a tempting dinner at Prato Borni (don't miss the buffet on winter evenings). To the delight of the children, we toured the village by horse-drawn carriage and spent ample time in the indoor swimming pool.
