I want to start by saying I was skeptical about staying here, as a lot of the reviews I saw were about the food, not the rooms and what to expect from the shared washrooms. My husband was very eager about the place, so I booked a room with a view of the Matterhorn as a birthday gift for him.

We were not disappointed! The Fluhalp was very clean, comfortable and the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I will admit we were very lucky to get a view of the Matterhorn. We were only in Zermatt for under 48hrs, and the clouds broke for about five hours enabling us to enjoy the view from the patio and our room for a short period. We stayed overnight on 2 Oct 24.

The two twin beds were very comfortable and there were a lot of hooks in the room to hang clothing along with a night table between the beds, and small table and chair. We didn't notice any loud noises from the other guests, but we were both very tired from the long day, so we might have just slept through them. The washrooms were very clean, no complaints there. The meals that come with the room booking were perfect. The supper consisted of a salad, soup, main dish of pasta and stewed meat, and ice cream for dessert. Breakfast included coffee, tea, juice, and a self-serve station for eggs, bread, jams/butter, yogurt, granola and fresh fruit.

Overall, this was one of our highlights from our two week trip to Switzerland. We would highly recommend it.
