3-star family-run hotel in Zermatt with Matterhorn views and ski-in/ski-out access

Location & Access

Hotel Bristol sits between the train station and the Klein Matterhorn cable car in central Zermatt. The Matterhorn Glacier Paradise gondola and all winter sport facilities are within a 5- to 10-minute walk. A free shuttle service runs from 08:00 to 17:00, and ski buses stop directly in front of the hotel.

Rooms & Matterhorn Views

Most rooms offer unobstructed views of the Matterhorn from private balconies. Room categories include Double Rooms, Junior Suites, and Triple Rooms, some with Matterhorn view designation. Each room has a minibar, electric kettle, and a safety deposit box.

Spa & Wellness

The on-site spa includes a sauna, steam bath, hammam, and a large relaxation area with deckchairs on an outdoor terrace. Massages are available on demand at the wellness center. The spa facilities are open daily from 16:00 to 20:00.

Dining & Breakfast

A daily breakfast buffet includes made-to-order eggs, waffles, pancakes, fresh juices, and a variety of local cheeses and meats. Custom dietary menu options are prepared by the hotel chefs upon request. The bar serves snacks and drinks in the evening, while guests can also use a shared microwave and cutlery station for light meals.

Family & Children

The hotel has a children's playground, a games room, and an indoor play area with board games and puzzles. Ski equipment hire and a heated ski storage room are available on-site, with ski pass sales at the front desk.

“Hotel Bristol strikes me as a particularly well-managed, family-owned place, perfectly situated between the train station and cable cars, ideal for skiers; I noticed the heated ski storage is a nice touch. The Matterhorn views are indeed stunning, especially from rooms with a balcony, and the breakfast buffet offers a wide variety, including gluten-free choices; plus, the spa seems like a welcome addition after a long day on the slopes. It's a solid choice for exploring Zermatt.”
