We came to Zermatt last year and wanted to stay at Hotel Alex but others in the group did not and we ended up staying elsewhree at a nice place with no restaurant or gym but near the Matterhorn Express lift. This year after a group trip fell through we decided to give the Hotel Alex a try. It a much better experience in Zermatt. The location is perfect, right next to the train station and the coop is right across the street. The gym was great and I am a non skier so used it often. The vibe of the hotel is great. The staff are all wonderful, like you kind of expect from a family owned hotel. The restaurant for half board in the evening was amazing. You can add it for a reasonable fee each day and go out if you dont like the menu of the half board. The food at dinner was overall wonderful. The Raclette on Monday was a treat as was the desert buffet one day. The half board portions are fine and can enjoy multiple courses. Their wine list is extensive. I highly recommend the Hotel Alex. It was a great week in Zermatt.

Nice hotel but some serious problems

The resort is funky and eclectic and in a great location, but some of the staff were quite rude with no reason. We did not have any heat in our room all night, and the young lady at the front desk was completely dismissive of our efforts to remedy. We also did not have any hot water in the room until some four hours after check-in; again, no great sympathy was displayed. Such a shame as our stay in Zermatt was lovely overall, and we even enjoyed this funky little hotel, despite the very rude and cold girl at the front desk, and even colder water and room at night!

Honestly this hotel was a HUGE surprise. I was not expecting it to be SO big and so very well equipped! Honestly it's the perfect place to stay in Zermatt. It's very close to the train, literally around the corner. The entrance is hard to find since it's so big, so just got up the stairs and walk into the doors that say Restaurant. The staff were super nice and provided me with everything I needed above and beyond. I was truly treated with so much care. The big bonus for me was learning about the free spa area. It's huge! I used the pool and spa area a few times and I was always the only one there. The lounge and bar area is amazing and huge as well. Water is drinkable everywhere in Zermatt. The room was super cozy and clean. Very comfortable. Bathroom was great with heated floors and a spa tub. There are just so many perks to this place it will blow your mind. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This was the worst hotel experience I've had in 50 years. The hotel is OK at best. The real issue is after we checked in and we're given our room, it was small, dirty and outdated. We look at other hotels in Zermatt and decided we wanted to change given this was a special vacation for us. Hotel Alex owners offered zero flexibility with their cancelation policy and charged us the full value for our entire stay ($1,800 USD). We were asking for a fair compromise, not a full refund. We left after 1 night. AMEX and Expedia were unable to help us due to their archaic policies. DO NOT BOOK here unless you are willing to live with what you get upon arrival. The staff, besides the owners (husband and wife) were all very nice. The husband Rene wouldn't return my phone calls or speak with me at all. So sad that there is such greed in the world.

Great Hotel in a Great Location

The property is in a central and very convenient location. It’s less than a 5-minute walk from the train station. The staff was great and helpful. The room was a bit too warm for my liking but not a huge deal. Overall, a solid property.

Upon arrival I paid for two good rooms they were the same price they tried to say they upgraded me and then in the middle my trip they told me I needed to wake up early the next day and go to a different room and they said they forgot to tell me upon check in. I’m not sure how many people they’ve done this too. It was the first time this was done to me and it was completely unacceptable.

This property has a lot of charm even though it's an older property. It can be fairly noisy since it is older, but it has so much character and is in a great area. The hotel bar was a favorite at the end of the day before heading to dinner and even a place for a night cap. The bartender from Italy (i forgot his name) was attentive and fun. This place apparently gets extremely lively during ski season. My room was originally right by the elevator and they were able to accommodate me to a more quiet room which was nice. I had booked a small room, which was quaint, but clean and comfortable. It is walkable to all the attractions and to the gondola to the Matterhorn. I would stay here again.
