Switzerland's
hotels have a justifiably famous reputation worldwide.
Zermatt has welcomed visitors for over 150 years
and even today most of the hotels are run by the owner.
Luxury and first class hotels offer style and tradition,
but standards of efficiency and service throughout are
second to none. Even the mid-range and simple accommodations offer
service and ambience which are among the best of their
kind.
When to Go ?
Before looking at
the Hotel and Apartment List, it is worth taking
note of Zermatt's different holiday seasons. The pricing
structure of accommodation varies according to the
following seasons:
 | High Season
- Christmas to New Year, Mid-February to Easter.
European holidays fall within these periods and
Zermatt is a thriving village. Even though the resort
is busy, thankfully without cars it never feels
overcrowded. Accommodation is at a premium. The
pistes/trails/lifts are busier, although it is still
possible to avoid queues. Snow
cover is generally superb. Nightlife is
excellent. To avoid disappointment, please
book as far as possible in advance - preferably months
ahead for high season.
|
| Mid Season
- January to Mid-February, Mid-June to mid-September.
Mountain lifts are very often 'walk' or 'ski-on'. In
the winter period snow conditions are normally
excellent. In the summer period the village streets
are bustling with walkers, climbers and sightseers. It
is highly recommended to book ahead for this season.
|
| Low Season
- Mid-September to Mid-December, Mid-April to
Mid-June.
Between summer and winter seasons accommodation can be
had at a bargain. Village life is subdued. Snow is
often still very good - especially on the upper runs.
All ski areas are open from late November until the start of
May, and the largest glacier ski area in Europe is
open all year. November is the quietest month and many
businesses are closed for annual holidays. |

How long to
stay ?
| In the Winter
Season - Regular guests to Zermatt allow
themselves one or two weeks to soak up the famous
Zermatt ambience. It is hardly possible to do the vast ski
areas justice in a visit of only a few days. In high
season, it should be noted that many Hotels give
priority to reservations of at least one week's
duration. |
| In the Summer
Season - Summer visitors planning to wander
amongst the vast mountain ranges can happily occupy
themselves for a week or even more. People wanting a
quick look at the mountains should allow at least a
few days in Zermatt, in order to greatly increase the
probability of clear viewing conditions. |
