Paris-based designers and architects Kristian Gavoille and Valérie Garcia were in charge to reimagine the 95 rooms and suites Schweizerhof Hotel Zermatt following its acquisition by the Michel Reybier Group which also owns La Reserve Hotels. The design is abundat in clad walls and marble bathrooms create cosy and elegant spaces that are peppered with Swiss-inspired objects from cow bells to hiking sticks and local vintage photographs (many of the Matterhorn).

Reybier’s innovative thinking has led to a concept that merges the lobby with Le Schweizerhof Kitchen, the hotel’s signature restaurant, resulting in a vast space from which crowd-pleasing dishes from croque-monsieur to pizzas and meats grilled on request, are churned out from a spectacular open show kitchen. It makes for a convivial free-flowing environment full of the buzz of a place making its mark.

Elsewhere, Zermatt’s gastronomy has been raised a few notches with La Muña, the hotel’s Peruvian-Japanese fusion restaurant that takes its name from the ubiquitous mint-like Peruvian herb. Don’t miss out on the deliciously rich black cod marinated in miso or the tart yuzu lemon meringue pie – certainly a satisfying end to a day spent on the slopes.
