Lovely hotel
Great stay. Good location and staff very friendly and helpful. Shame there isn't any air con for summer months as it was unbearably hot in the room. Balcony not safe for a toddler and was hard to try and keep him away when we needed the door open to let some air in. Room a little tired but overall a good stay.

Relax & Unwind in Zermatt at the rex
I had a fantastic stay at the rex. I was blown away by the morning breakfast spread from local sources, including their in house bakery. Additionally, their spa center (indoor pool, 3 saunas, hot tub, etc) was perfect after a day of skiing. The room was comfortable and the lounge on the main floor was comfortable. overall, I was surprised by my stay at the rex and would come back again

Great place to stay
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel was located in a perfect spot to walk to either mountain base and easily access the ski lifts. The view of the Matterhorn from the balcony was incredible.
