We were recommended to stay at the Rex by a group of fellow skiers who've been going there for years. And having sampled the Rex, we can see why. Our rooms were spacious and immaculate with snowy white bedding and luxurious duvets. Some of the bathrooms are still to be renovated but even allowing for that, they were sparkling clean.... more

Stayed in a South facing suite (room 401) and had unbelieveable views of the matterhorn right from the bed! 2 Balconies, a kitchen which included sink, fridge, stove and pots/pans/plates/silverware etc. made it easy to store food and have some meals in the room. The staff was very helpful. Our luggage was checked in at the airport in Boston, dropped... more

Great Hotel. Very good buffet breakfast. The hotel, the spa and the rooms were all very clean. Only a few minutes walk into the main town with lots of bars and restaurants. Taxis are also easy to get, they work off battery like the Milk Float. The staff were really friendly and helpful. They have a very nice bar. We... more

The hotel is in an excellent location for catching the ski bus to all ski lifts. The family run and friendly atmosphere make this a comfortable and relaxing place to stay. Our room was very spacious (particularly for a ski resort). The bustling nightlife and restaurants are less than 5 minutes walk away. By far the best thing about this... more

My wife and I booked this hotel based largely on the good reviews we found on this site, and they were spot-on. This hotel was more than we could have hoped for. The location was great, the staff were helpful, courteous and knowledgeable and our Junior Suite (Room 24) was spacious, cofortable and tastefully decorated. We had a southern view... more

Very comfortable bed and breakfast. 10 minutes walk from ski-lifts. Superior rooms are clean and spacious. Breakfast could be better. I would recommend if visiting Zermatt. At peak times all rooms are block-booked by travel agents which means paying a premium which is irritating. more

We stayed at the Hotel Rex this summer and found it perfect for our needs. The staff on reception were friendly and helpful (lending us umbrellas when it tipped down one evening) and the place was spotless. The room, a junior suite, was ideal - and had a balcony with views of the Matterhorn. We also made full use of... more

Just returned from a wonderful stay at the Hotel Rex. The hotel is in my opinion perfectly located close to Zermatt village centre, 2 mins from the ski bus, best après ski bars (Papperla bar) and good restaurants. We like to try local restaurants so did not miss eating in the hotel, especially due to proximity and choice of the... more

This place was simply the best we stayed at. I would give high marks on almost everything - location, rooms, bathrooms, views (could see the Matterhorn from the balcony on sunny days from some rooms), service and breakfast. The only downside was that the hotel didn't have a restaurant for dining, but there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance... more

Don't be put off by the This Is Travel review, the Rex is far better than adequate and it is in a great location. I've stayed here three times now and for the price the hotel is really great. The whole place is absolutely spotless, rooms and bathrooms are fine and the breakfast is much better than average. Very nice... more
