Lovely welcome as usual - this was our seventh stay. Great breakfast buffet. lovely room and beautiful spa. The staff are all excellent. The area is quiet but only a few minutes from the centre of town and a 100m from the ski bus.

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Rex three weeks ago with our 6 year old son for six nights. If you are coming from anywhere around the world and want a very nice, down-to-Earth place to stay in a village that has it's fair share of uber-wealth and pretention - Hotel Rex is it. We will return to the... More

My Son and I have just returned from a superb week of Skiing in Zermatt. I have been to Zermatt on several occasions and it is one of my favouirite Ski resorts, It's smart, (without being snobbish), equipped with every amenity and has an excellent Lift System with almost no queues. My review however is about the 'Hotel Rex Garni'... More

We asked for a room with the view of the Matterhorn when we booked, but on check in we were placed in a room at the back of the hotel - I called reception and asked if we could be moved, and we were - the new room had an excellent view despite being on a lower floor. The good... More

Our first impressions of Zermatt were incredibly positive and we were particularly impressed with the fact that all of the vehicles in the town are battery powered. The Hotel is in a stunning location, with a tantalising glimpse of the Matterhorn. The gardens at the front of the hotel are immaculately maintained. The hotel staff were unbelievably helpful, especially "Christina"?,... More

I stayed at the Hotel Rex for 5 nights between 06/08/2012 - 11/08/2012 and this is the third time I have used this hotel during my numerous visits to Zermatt, Switzerland. This trip was the first time I have not been given a room with a balcony at the Rex which was disappointing but the room I was allocated was... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights in August 2011, it was their quiet time I believe, not too many people staying at this time. Staff were very friendly and helpfull, nothing was too much trouble. Our room faced away from the Matterhorn, but this wasnt a priority for us. The room was of a good size, plenty big... More

We stayed at the Hotel Rex for a week's ski-ing after reading good reviews on Tripadvisor and it certainly lives up to its reputation. Check-in was quick, friendly and efficient. Our superior twin room on the second floor had perfect view of the Matterhorn and was spotlessly clean. Staff were accommodating and friendly and unfazed by our request for summer... More
