Mont Cervin Palace lives up to its reputation with palatial interiors and more floor space than any of the other hotels in Zermatt. Found at the top of the main street, it is elegant and traditional with extremely well-appointed rooms, a pool and a recently opened wellness centre.

Highly recommended is its ‘miracle back treatment’ – a mix of massage and electric shocks that will have you up and back on the slopes in no time. Despite its sheer scale, Mont Cervin Palace retains an intimate, homely feel. A must-stay.
