Design & Rooms

Matterhorn Focus Design Hotel offers 31 individually designed rooms by Swiss artist and designer Heinz Julen. Select rooms include SKYLIGHT Double Rooms with a ceiling window for viewing the night sky. Most rooms provide direct views of the Matterhorn and some have a private balcony.

The hotel's spa area includes a Finnish sauna, a salt-water bath, and both indoor and outdoor hot tubs. Guests can relax on heated loungers in a dedicated relaxation room. Massage and beauty treatments are available on request, along with a steam room and hammam.

Location & Ski Access

The hotel is reachable via a tunnel from the Kleinmatterhorn valley station, with a lift taking guests 30 metres up to the entrance. Skiers are steps from the Matterhorn Express gondola, and the hotel sells ski passes, stores equipment, and arranges tuition and mountain guides. A free shuttle transports guests to Zermatt train station, taxi stand, or heliport between 8:00 and 19:00.

A complimentary breakfast buffet is served each morning, featuring local products such as Zermatt beer and fresh bread.
