“A very relaxed sophisticated hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

I have stayed at this hotel before. Its located perfectly by the ski lift call the matterhorn Express. It is warm and pretty trendy and has a very relaxed feel about it. Rooms are comfortable with amazing views. Lovely spa and great massage therapist. Will definately stay again. Quite a couples place and I would say good for the single traveller too. Owners really work hard to create a welcoming and professionally run hotel.

Room Tip: All rooms are lovely just depends how luxurious you want to go and what price to pay

“Incredible views and hospitality”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Hotel Matterhorn Focus is quite possibly one of the best hotel experiences I have had out of the hundreds of hotels in which I have stayed. From the time of the reception to the complimentary ride back to the train station, I didn't once regret paying a premium for this place. Waking up to views of the Matterhorn after a night of swimming indoors and outdoors in the snow in the heated pool was a surreal experience. Unfortunately, the fog was a little too heavy the day we intended to ski the alps, but this just gives us more reason to come back. I would recommend this hotel without question to everyone who ever plans to visit Zermatt!

Room Tip: Get a Matterhorn facing room! You won't regret it.

“Keep it a secret”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

Away from the stale rooms of ‘grand’ establishments, the pretentiousness of other boutique hotels, and the noise of busy bars often within hotels, the Focus is by far Zermatt's best kept secret. A unique place to find relaxed, discreet luxury within a very modern yet cosy building. Its friendly and polite service makes you feel welcomed instantly, and their attention to detail is delivered hassle-free. Don’t go if your idea of luxury is bell boys in formal uniform, damask clad rooms, or a bar to see and be seen. This is home from home, in a casual but exquisite way. The hotel is conveniently situated by the gondola and close to a top ski rental shop, where you can practically ski to. The buzz of the town centre is a 10-minute walk away, along the beautiful river. Hopefully, the Focus will not be ruined in time by its increasing popularity and recognition for being just very special.

“Perfect Place for a Romantic Honeymoon!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

We stayed in Zermatt Nov 19-24, 2011 & loved every minute of our stay at the Matterhorn Focus. We had a late train into Zermatt, called ahead & the hotel sent a taxi to pick us up after hours. This was the beginning of the stellar service we received throughout our entire stay. Upon arrival, we were welcomed and shown to our suite which had been upgraded for our honeymoon. The breakfast buffet that welcomed us the next morning, and every morning, was absolutely delicious and the service - impeccable. The hotel's location is perfect - up from the busy town square but right next to the ski lift. I was nervous this would be loud but we never heard a peep. The pool and spa were so welcoming at the end of the day and the amenities in the room - fireplace, etc were perfect. The staff at the hotel was beyond wonderful. They were the perfect balance of making sure we were always taken care of but also giving us our space. We cannot recommend the Matterhorn Focus enough.

Room Tip: We were generously upgraded to the Royal Suite. If you can choose this room, do it. It was absolutel...
