Riffelalp Resort 2222m: Impossible Altitude Alpine Luxury with Matterhorn View

Riffelalp Resort 2222m Ski-in & Ski-out is a unique alpine luxury hotel, situated at 2222 meters above Zermatt, accessible only via the Gornergrat cogwheel railway. It offers an exclusive stay experience with direct access to the ski slopes (Ski-in/Ski-out) and an unparalleled view of the Matterhorn. It is the ultimate alpine retreat, an oasis of peace and luxury at high altitude.

Europe's Highest Outdoor Pool

The resort is famous for its heated outdoor pool, located at 2222 meters, considered the highest in Europe with a direct view of the Matterhorn. It is an unforgettable experience to swim surrounded by the alpine panorama, enjoying the warmth of the water even in winter. The Riffelalp Spa completes the wellness offering with saunas and alpine treatments.

Historic Atmosphere and Alpine Comfort

Opened in 1884, Riffelalp Resort combines the charm of its history with modern luxury. The rooms and suites are furnished in an elegant alpine style, with wood and natural materials. Many offer private balconies directly overlooking the Matterhorn, ensuring a wake-up with one of the most iconic views in the world.

High-Altitude Gastronomy and Prestigious Wine Cellar

The culinary offering ranges from gourmet restaurants to more informal bistros. The main restaurant proposes refined dishes that celebrate alpine and international flavors, with a strong focus on ingredient quality. The well-stocked wine cellar offers a selection of fine wines, perfect to enjoy after a day of skiing or hiking.

Ski-in/Ski-out Paradise and Summer Trekking

The location is the true strength: in winter, guests step directly onto the ski slopes of the Gornergrat area (Ski-in & Ski-out). In summer, the hotel is the ideal starting point for hikes and treks with spectacular views. Transportation is ensured by its exclusive private tram, adding a touch of historic luxury and practicality.
