Zermatt belongs to Switzerland's Valais canton, which rubs shoulders with the Italian Alps. You'll find it surrounded by nearly a third of Europe's 4000m peaks and, most notably, right at the foot of the Matterhorn. Even if you haven't heard of this mountain, chances are you'd recognise it - national landmark of Switzerland, the inspiration for the Toblerone and a peak photographed more than any other. Besides the picturesque scenery, these mighty mountains come with a cool climate, ever-white glaciers and ...
There are 200km of runs in the local area alone and a massive 360km overall if you count the Matterhorn's Italian side. With Cervina, Zermatt forms the 'Matterhorn Ski Paradise' where SNO lovers of all abilities are blessed with high altitude terrain - and lots of it! Everyone's a winner in a ski area this big and brilliant. Still, if we had to pick where it shines, we'd say it's incredibly fantastic for intermediate and advanced level skiers and snowboarders. If you're a keen beginner, you'll love Zermatt,...
Zermatt has voted the world's best après ski resort by the World Snow Awards in the past, making it a wise choice if you want a whale of a time post-skiing. Sure – it doesn't come cheap, but you won't find better if you want quality. Across sixty bars and numerous nightclubs, you can relax, unwind and party through the night. Harry's Bar is the place to dance to cheesy pop and Papperla offers a pubby atmosphere, but you can't come to Zermatt without being tempted into the Hennu Stall (at the end of the Furi-Ze...

"Hotel Butterfly was amazing "

Mike

Hotel Butterfly was amazing. The board was great. The short walk to mountain railway to very convenient for ski access. 4.5/5

"Recommended - friendly staff, good food and central location"

Lindy, Fulham
5/ out of 5
The Hotel Butterfly is very good, we had a lovely experience. I would recommend this hotel, it caters to everyone - couples as well as families. The staff were very good, very friendly, gave good advice and spoke English well. It was our first time skiing and they helped us find our feet. Our journey from the airport took longer than expected because of the snow conditions and there was food waiting for us in our rooms when we arrived. In the evenings we were served 5 course meals and there was always something I liked, the food was very good. It was convenient to have half board as it’s so expensive to eat out in Zermatt. The access to the hotel is great, it’s centrally located. It took us about 5-10 minutes to walk to the lifts, but we are beginners so we struggled to walk in our ski boots; once we got the hang of it we were faster. There were plenty of experienced people pounding along the pavement and it probably only took them a few minutes. The rooms were nice although we found them quite hot – that’s probably good for you when your muscles are aching after skiing. I can’t imagine what they are like in summer, I guess they turn the temperature down...
