Hotel description

Show All

Hotel Riffelhaus is living testimony to the golden age of mountaineering. Mountain climbing and hotel history were written here. In 1853, the hotel on the Riffelberg was the second hotel in Zermatt. It opened even before the Gornergrat railway was built. The beams and stones were hauled up the mountain by mules and using a lot of manpower.

Over the course of the decades, the initial mountain climber accommodations developed into a comfortable mountain hotel, without losing the atmosphere of the pioneering days. With the renovation, the Hotel Riffelhaus presents one of the most beautiful sun terraces in Zermatt and a wellness landscape with a unique view of the Matterhorn. Those who like Swiss cuisine are in paradise at the Restaurant Riffelhaus.

The “new” Hotel Riffelhaus offers many inviting places to linger. When you first enter your room, you will be astonished at the level of design and comfort we put into the room, here in the heart of the mountains, using completely natural materials.
