“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.”
