Resort Hotel Alex Zermatt, a wellness hotel, blends traditional alpine charm with modern luxury in the heart of Zermatt. The property features valuable pictures of the Matterhorn, turning the hotel into an artistic homage to the iconic mountain. Behind its log-cabin exterior lies a world of experiences, including an elegant smokers' lounge and the Montana Lounge.

Luxury Accommodations

Rooms at Resort Hotel Alex Zermatt range from Classic Single Rooms to Deluxe Suites, each over 22 m² with bathtubs and balconies. Premium mattresses, hypoallergenic bedding, and workspaces ensure comfort, while select rooms offer Matterhorn views. The Deluxe Suite features a separate living room and luxurious amenities.

Gourmet Dining

Dining options include the Alex Grill, led by top Valais chef Frédéric Fischer, offering Valais specialties and gourmet set meals. Half board includes a hearty breakfast buffet and multi-course dinners, with seasonal ingredients sourced locally. The Bodega Bacchus wine cellar provides an exclusive setting for private dining.

Wellness & Activities

The wellness area features an indoor pool, Finnish sauna, and massage treatments tailored to individual needs. Guests can also access a modern gym with Technogym equipment or play squash in the hotel's court. Seasonal outdoor activities include skiing, hiking, and the Gornergrat Zermatt Marathon.

Central Location

Resort Hotel Alex Zermatt is a 5-minute walk from Zermatt's Bahnhof bus stop and 80 km from Sion. Nearby landmarks include the Matterhorn Museum and Kapelle Winkelmatten, both within 1 km. The hotel offers a complimentary pick-up service from the train station.

“From the rich history displayed in its in-house museum to the exclusive smoky lounge, it's clear this is not a typical Zermatt hotel. The location, near the Gornergrat train station, balances village access with a sense of retreat, while the option for tailored dining experiences elevates the stay. A family-friendly atmosphere and extensive wellness area round out the appeal, making it a compelling base for exploring the Matterhorn.”
