Riffelhaus 1853

Riffelhaus 1853

Photos

Overview

Riffelhaus 1853 sits quietly on the flank of the Riffelberg, high enough that the Matterhorn stands directly before you. Diners and guests share that view, as have the mountaineers and European royalty who came before them. The twenty-five rooms and suites each look out on the surrounding peaks, and the spa offers a Jacuzzi turned toward the Matterhorn itself. Heliport Zermatt is about four minutes' drive away.

    Fabulous!

    Everything is excellent: room, breakfast, half-board dinner, SPA, staff, location, scenery.

    2-night stay

    After a stay at the Monte Rosa Hut, we stayed at the Riffelhaus again. The spa, or rather the pool, is great. After two evenings, the service still knew what kind of wine we had consumed. Unfortunately, dinner was not served hot on either evening. The plates were hot, but the food itself was not.

    A beer, a raclette and a stunning view

    It’s noon, it’s Sunday, it’s sunny, and we’ve walked down from Gornergrat - and there is the historic 1853 - we are served beers on the terrace facing the Matterhorn. Raclette is soon to follow. A simply wonderful experience with great service. Couldn’t recommend more for that magical moment.
