The hotel was very rustic but clean and it was right in the heart of Zermatt. We arrived before check in but the staff checked us into our room anyway. I loved every bit of our stay.

This was a nice stay right in the heart of Zermatt. Though it was an older place (which was reflective in the rooms) it was a good place for the price. The staff was kind and helpful.

Difficult to find. It is in an alleyway beside a bakery, almost opposite Grand Hotel Zermatthof and at right angles to the Hotel Post. Up at least 3 flights of old stairs in an old chalet. The key was waiting for me. Once there, it is comfortable, even a kettle and easy chair provided. There is a balcony overlooking the main street. The furnishings, lighting and equipment are good. Everything as clean. The only thing missing was a plug for the basin - perhaps this was an accident?
This room was for one person.

Clean, budget friendly hotel. The hotel is surrounded by 4 busy bars that close around 4am. So if you are going out, the hotel is very conveniently located. If you want to rest at night, probably not for you. Staffs are friendly.

The Hotel Helvetia was perfect for my short stay in Zermatt. I had read many of the previous reviews so I was prepared. The hotel is a short 5 minute walk from the train station, there is no elevator and my room was quite small but had a balcony overlooking the street filled with people. The hotel is surrounded by shops and restaurants. This hotel was quite reasonably priced and in a great location.

This 2star room is in a perfect location. We had large bags and it was only a 5 minute walk to the Hotel from the train station. Check in was " our key" on a board with our name listed in the entrance. Worked for us. We were fortunate to have a room on the first floor which involved some stairs. Would not of liked to drag our large suitcases up to the upper floors. Stairway very narrow. Washroom small but totally recently upgraded. Good water pressure, comfortable beds but do need to upgrade pillows. The continental breakfast was great. Very nice restaurant which is bellow the rooms. Once you exit the hotel you are on the main street in the heart of the area.

clean and comfortable room in a small hotel with a great location, however the breakfast was very light. If you are a senior be aware there is no elevator ( we were on the fourth floor) , also if you are over 6 feet watch your head !!!
