The free breakfast was great with different yogurt, cold lunch meat choices, bread, and boiled eggs. The room was adequate. It was nice to have a sink in the room. The shower does not provide shampoo, conditioner, or body wash. This hostel may be only 0.7 miles from the Zermatt train station, but it is an ascent at an incline uphill. May be hard with lots of bags. The taxi rate was $37 USD, which seemed high for a 5 minute drive. I walked from the train station, but it was considerably difficult with all my luggage.

If you look past the steps to the place, it’s perfect. Family of four with wheeled suitcases - no lift. If you’re fit and able to, it’s the perfect stop, 18FR dinner was great, home cooked and good portions,

Make sure that you get the right bus from the station to get to the hotel. The red bus I think. It will drop you 2 minutes from the hotel. Phenomenal views from room. Amazing breakfast. It is wonderful that people from all over the world visited Switzerland. However, some guidelines need to be posted for sharing rooms. These are my suggestions based on multiple hostels: Share space Don't switch on the room lights if you enter the room late. Switch off multiple alarms Do not sneeze/cough into your hands and then touch items like tongs at breakfast. Please, please, please ban smoking within 100 feet of hostels. The pristine mountain air was constantly contaminated with it. Also outdoor smoke drifts in when windows are open.

The breakfast was really good and the location fitted the purpose of our visit in Zermatt. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I know it is a hostel and you could share the room with other people, but it my group could use a heads up if they booked a person more to our room and arrive in the middle of the night while we were sleeping, which was not very safe for us.
