“High on a hillside in Zermatt, the hotel looks straight across to the Matterhorn. I like that it's ski-in accessible from the Rothorn run, and offers a tunnel and elevator for quick trips into town. For families especially, this spot works well, with its cozy pool, family-friendly suites and that incredible view.”
