So it bugs me that anyone would rate this less than 5. I had to travel for work so I know a little about hotels and food. My Lifetime Marriott profile shows 2397 nights with Marriott and Starwood. There is not a Marriott hotel in Zermatt (rumor is they are building a Ritz to open in 2026) so we looked at the Omnia and Mt Cervin but I am so glad we stayed here. We traveled late June 2024 right after a flood. We heard reports while in Chamonix that Zermatt was closed so we contacted the resort. They were so helpful and professional and assured us everything was copesetic. There are very few places in the US that have fresh squeezed orange juice (included with free breakfast) so I would recommend just for that. Oh did I mention if you like to hike this place rocks! Food at the restaurants was also very good. I was worried about the Gornergrat but with the Peaks Pass this was seamless. If I return to Zermatt it will be here and not at the Ritz! Oh and someone said something about the Cigar lounge. That is a very cool room to visit even though I don't smoke. I NEVER smelled smoke outside that room and the Check-in and game room are right next door to that room. Hmm?

We loved our stay at the Riffelalp resort!! All of the staff were exceptional from getting help upon arrival in Zermatt up until our departure. The food was great throughout our stay and we especially enjoyed our time at the bar after dinners especially with the amazing bartenders Lukas, Thomas, and Juancarlos. They made us feel so welcome and gave such helpful information for our stay!

Could not recommend Riffelalp any more. The hotel is beautiful and a great combination of cozy and chic. The staff are all so amazing, especially Jessica and Giacomo. They were so helpful and accommodating. The restaurants are great, we had dinner at Al Bosco. The hotel is situated in a beautiful location where you get an amazing view of the Matterhorn, and is also in walking distance to several hikes around the Matterhorn, including the 5 lakes hike. If you’re visiting Zermatt, it is absolutely worth it to stay here.

This resort is breathtaking and absolutely unique.
It's located up in the mountain (2222 Mts) and my husband and I had an incredible stay from start to finish.
The morning breakfast on the balcony with the fresh Zermatt air was divine.
Big thanks to the General Manager, Mr. Walther for organising us our restaurant reservations.

Stay in June
Hi level in all, from  a meeting point in Zermatt up to the last hour in the Hotel. All for you.
The food (we liked the Bar more then the restaurnt), the design (up to the smallest parts), the SPA, the staff - and the weather too (you need some good luck).
Hiking, relax... And the Matterhorn as the main actor.
