We gladly and proudly run this cosy four-star hotel in our hometown of Zermatt. We feel deeply connected to Zermatt and all of Switzerland, and that is why we gladly uphold local traditions – in everyday hotel life as well as privately! For example, we are active members in the Fife & Drum Association, and we also belong to the organisation known as “Zermatt Alphorn Friends”.
As locals, we know the most exciting stories about our village, its most beautiful corners, the best ski slopes in the area and the greatest excursion destinations like the back of our hand – we will gladly share valuable tips with you! If nothing else, Bernard Perren’s training as a qualified Swiss snow sports instructor should be quite helpful.
We have also been able to augment the advantages of our hotel through the extension and renovation implemented in 2010. With great passion and professionalism we do our utmost every day so that you enjoy a beautiful stay. We look forward to inspiring you with our passionate enthusiasm for Zermatt!
Hotel Aristella was built in 1964 by Elsbeth and Manfred Perren, Bernard’s parents. They ran the then-3-star hotel with great love and dedication. Then in 2010 we decided to renovate and extend the hotel. After a short but intensive construction period, we were already able to welcome the first guests in December. During this time we change the style of the hotel into a stylish 4-star hotel, and at the same time we were able to follow in great footsteps as a very young family.
Zermatt is a popular mountain village for skiers, climbers and hikers. The village is located at an elevation of 1,600 metres at the foot of the famous, majestic Matterhorn, surrounded by 29 other 4,000-metre mountains in the southern German-speaking canton of Valais (Wallis). On Bahnhofstrasse, the main street in Zermatt, you will find boutiques, restaurants and smaller shops to discover while taking a stroll. Together with Cervinia in Italy we offer skiers or snowboarders the suitable slope, with about 360 kilometres of ski slopes in total. In addition, there are public, unroofed rinks for ice skating, curling and ice stock sport.
Gourmets get their full money’s worth year-round here in Zermatt. In the village as well as in the mountains you can enjoy a gourmet offer like hardly any other. The hearts of connoisseurs quickly beat faster here!
