Great location and perfect for a group of 10-12. Plenty of space and room for everyone. Easy walk to everything and a great view of the Matterhorn.
Absolutely loved our stay here! It is the perfect zermatt home for a larger group. Very walkable and we even had a view of the Matterhorn from a balcony. The space was so well designed – wouldn’t change a thing!
Great place for 2 families, very central, we will be back!
Awesome chalet in a great location! Bigger and better than the photos! Easily handled our group of 10 adults. Great value for the money.
My only issue was they did not supply enough trash bags (only 1 for each unit) or toilet paper. Additionally, the management company did not have an obvious point of contact. For example, when I called to let them know that the sauna was not working, they told me to call the maintenance guy (on his day off) rather than taking care of the issue themselves.
In summary, awesome place, cumbersome management company.
