Matterhorn FOCUS Design Hotel Zermatt
View of the Matterhorn and design combined with lifestyle
Welcome to the somewhat different 4 Star Superior Hotel, where design merges lifestyle and architecture with nature. With us, you will spend an unforgettable time at the foot of the majestic Matterhorn. The bed and breakfast hotel Matterhorn FOCUS is situated in a unique location, directly beside the "Matterhorn glacier paradise" valley station. If you would like to hike and ski to your heart's content, this is the ideal starting point for you. In addition, you can reach the village center on foot in barely 10 minutes.
Reside with style
All areas of the Superior Hotel are shaped by the creative design of Heinz Julen. The renowned architect from Zermatt has designed sofas, lights, beds and other furniture for the Hotel Matterhorn FOCUS. In the individually furnished double and family rooms, as also in the generous suites, you can sense the attention to detail. A total of 30 rooms are spread across three houses (A, B and C) and are connected with each other. Children up to 9 years stay with us free of charge in the parents room and dogs are welcome in House C*.
Refuel
An indulgent balanced breakfast prepares you for the day. After an energetic day of hiking or skiing, you can relax in the luxurious spa area. Warm loungers, sauna, steam bath, saltwater pool and the heated indoor swimming pool with outdoor Jacuzzi will give you new energy.
Lean back
Do you fancy an afternoon tea or an aperitif? While the fireplace crackles, truly relax in the cozy lounge - or surf the Internet. Wi-Fi is available free of charge. For dinner in the evening, we will be happy to reserve you a table at one of the restaurants in Zermatt.
* Dogs are only allowed in House C and have no access to the breakfast room and the spa area - we thank you for your understanding.

Location/directions
Renovation house C
New as from September 2019
Breath-taking view to the Matterhorn with frameless glazing and two new Suites!
We are thrilled to announce that we are renovating our Chalet-house C from May to August 2019. Its rooms will be optically bigger and brighter for a limitless space experience full of light, air and breath-taking Matterhorn and Mountain View. Due to the new roof and the change of the façade, the house C will be optically adapted to the houses A and B. All bathrooms in be completely renovated and our high-light are two new Suites with free-standing bathtubs.
The reconstruction is to the side of houses A + B. The Matterhorn view is not affected by all room balconies and the hotel terrace. At day time on weekdays there might as well be a slight increase in decibels during the conversion. But no reason for concern! We will try our absolute best to keep it down to its lightest.
Of course, all hotel services and public areas such as the breakfast room, lounge, terraces and wellness area are available to you during normal opening hours and are not restricted by the conversion.
