Hotel description

The Rex, Zermatt is a modern mountain hotel blending comfort, wellness and gourmet flair right in the heart of Zermatt. It is family-run and puts strong emphasis on natural food, a bakery, and a wellness sanctuary. The interiors have alpine warmth with curated touches, wood, fire, textured materials, and many rooms look out toward the Matterhorn. The hotel offers a full spa area including an indoor pool, whirlpool, saunas, a steam bath, and relaxation lounges. Dining is a key feature: it features a grill restaurant (Stockhorn), a natural wine bar (Weinzeit), a wood-fire bar, a sourdough bakery (Backzeit), and a garden restaurant during summer. Its location is quiet yet close to the cable cars and main walking routes.

Our take on the stay
