Hotel Basecamp was a wonderful place to stay. We arrived after closing and the staff had arranged for us to have an easy self-check in. Unfortunately, I was not feeling well during our one-night stay and the staff was happy to allow us a late check out, knowing I needed a bit more rest. This meant I was able to face the next day of travel with some renewed energy. (THANK YOU SO MUCH!) We had a lovely view of the Matterhorn from our hotel balcony. I was able to sit and sip hot tea there and get my only sightseeing done right there. We must return to Zermatt at some point so we can do the things we meant to do. When we do, Hotel Basecamp will be our choice for lodging. The breakfast was delicious, so my husband tells me.

This hotel surprised me. On a trip that took me to three different countries and six different hotels, my expectations for Hotel Basecamp when booking it weren't that high. But it exceeded expectations. It ended up being the nicest room on the trip. It was a very spacious room that had great lighting features and a really beautiful functional design (e.g., ledges on each side of the bed for your stuff along with USB A and C ports as well). There was excellent storage, a very nice bathroom with a great shower that actually closed properly, a steady hot water supply, and a nice big TV. The negatives? No fridge, no 24/7 front desk (I think the main property door was locked and front desk unmanned after 8 PM), and they use a physical key vs. card for the room doors. But the biggest negative was that the check-in was lengthy and cumbersome as I had to fill out multiple data screens (divulging more personal information than I thought was necessary) on an iPad. I didn't have to do that for the Italian hotels or the hotel in Lucerne, yet they said it was a Swiss requirement.

The hotel boasts an exquisite ambiance, adorned with climbing gear and captivating photographs. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the breakfast selections added to the convenience of our stay. Most notably, the assistance provided by the front desk staff in organizing our stay and excursions was invaluable, with special recognition to Rebecca for her exceptional support.

Hidden gem!

The hotel staff were great! The room was very clean and quite spacious. We were shocked to find that our room had an excellent view of the Matterhorn from the balcony. The breakfast that was included was also very nice! It was more than a buffet. They also provided hot dishes to order along with fresh hot cappuccinos.
