"A true rarity—Hotel Jägerhof is hands down the best hotel we have ever stayed in. From the second we stepped inside, we knew we had booked the right place.
The hotel offers so many thoughtful touches: a delicious buffet breakfast, complimentary transport to and from the train station, and warm, friendly staff who made us feel welcome from the start. Our room was on the first floor and had lovely mountain views (not the Matterhorn, but still stunning). The balcony was shared, but it never felt intrusive thanks to a partial privacy shield, and it was the perfect spot to enjoy the scenery.
What made the location extra special was its setting just off the busier streets of Zermatt. This turned out to be a huge advantage—everything was still walkable, but it was a little quieter. During our stay there was a meteor shower, and because it was slightly darker than the town center, we had the incredible experience of watching meteors streak across the mountains from right outside our hotel. Truly unforgettable.
The bathroom was spacious, with the added luxury of a towel heater. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained—not outdated at all—and carries a charming ski lodge character. There’s also an outdoor patio seating area if you want more space than your balcony offers.
Overall, Hotel Jägerhof combines comfort, charm, and location in a way that feels exceptional. We can’t recommend it enough and would return in a heartbeat."
