We've been twice to the Riffelalp, so obviously we liked it. Maybe more the first time though... The very best thing about this hotel is its location. You just take out your skis and head off from the hotel... no need to clunk around walking in your ski boots to the bus or lift. All the good things the other... more

This place just gets better and better. I reviewed the Riffelalp about this time last year and couldn't praise it highly enough then. I have just returned from a week there and it was even better. The hotel itself is amazing in every way; the location, the views, the rooms, the restaurants, the pools, the bowling alley, the cinema, etc... more

We just returned from a week-long honeymoon stay at Riffelalp and were totally blown away by how wonderful the hotel was. It far exceeded our expectations at every turn. To start, the room was amazing. We reserved one of the chalet suites, which overlooked the Matterhorn. No joke, we could lie in bed at night and see the Matterhorn illuminated... more

This hotel has everything you could wish for. Delightful staff, lovely food, amazing service and of course a stunning view of the Matterhorn. Cannot be faulted. more

This is a 5-star resort and the professionalism of the staff is refreshing. The meals are excellent and we were upgraded to the Chalet rooms for no additional charge. These rooms are amazing - I would like to live there. Our trip was booked by AlpineHikers who have amazing connections all over Switzerland and offer a fantastic package. more

I have stayed in numerous 5-star hotels in the world and would, without hesitation, rate this as the best. The hotel scores extremely highly in several key areas: Staff: The staff is, without exaggeration, the hotels best asset. Stefano, the head waiter, is the most charming guy imaginable; nothing is too much trouble and he runs the restaurant - both... more

It has great acress to the train up to Gornergrat so skiing sn't to far away. The only downside is that its a long way from town :(. But apart from... more

Truly a fantastic swiss hideaway-- Believe the reviews and more. Their website truly does not do any justice to the property. Excellent dinners, immaculate rooms, all the modern conveniences, and then some. You will feel as you have been transported to a fantasy land at this hotel. Only warning-- it is remote, though the train down the mountain is very... more

We changed out travel plans to stay here on a whim during our honeymoon and were so happy that we did. While the hotel is located high above zermatt and only reachable by electric tram, I can not agree that it is a hassle to get there. We were greeted at the train station by someone from the hotel who... more
