Description
An amazing location demands an amazing interior to go with it and Zermatt Lodge does not disappoint. This beautifully designed penthouse apartment has bags of style and acres of space.
The focal point of the apartment is a quirky suspended fireplace, with wood surround and cow hide stools around it – a fab place to warm up over afternoon tea following your day on the slopes.
A neutral palette lets the natural beauty of the aged wood floors and lovely light wood rafters really sing. Two incredibly comfy seating areas offer spots to relax and chat or for the kids to watch a film.
The dining room is a spacious and sociable open-plan area, where you’ll be happy to linger for hours over dinner, all cooked by your top chef in the professionally equipped kitchen.
To soothe aching muscles and restore the soul, the lodge boasts its own sauna for you and your party to relax in. And if some me-time is what you’re after, each of the bedrooms is a little haven in its own right – crisp white bedlinen, a TV and DVD player in every room and a spa-style ensuite where you can pamper yourself. If you win the arm wrestle, go for the master suite with its own bath tub perched in front of the little stove – incredibly cosy!
From the balcony terraces, where there is an outdoor hot tub, you’ll be treated to a stunning view of Zermatt’s rooftops and, of course, the Matterhorn itself.

When you return from skiing, afternoon tea and treats will be ready and waiting to revive you for the evening ahead, when champagne and canapés will be served while your private chef rustles up an amazing four-course gourmet dinner for you.
There is an open bar, including spirits, beer and soft drinks, and a complimentary selection of house wines chosen to accompany your meals are on tap, although a larger fine wine list is available on request for an additional fee.
