The front desk clerk, Kristina (I’m so sorry if that’s incorrect, it’s been a few days) was A-mazing! She is a wealth of knowledge and has an answer for everything. If ever I needed some guidance, she stepped up. Oh, the room and location were great too. 😉

Great spot, beautiful room. Got the luck of the draw and got the top floor with a balcony with a view. On the main street, easily walkable from train station and everything else in town. Bed was super comfortable.

Zermatt is mainly closed in May. First thing hôtel told us. Could have been useful pre holiday information. Main complaint of resort was the constant noise of helicopters and building construction. Hotel Derby was open and very welcoming but walking trails also closed from village. Won’t return

This is a fabulous place to stay! The front desk staff had a great sense of humor & explained everything very well. The ‘family’ room for 3 was very clean, comfortable, and looked new! Small balcony was a treat. A bottle of water provided was a nice touch. The restaurant food was delicious & the wait staff was nice. Although the hostess reprimanded me for not telling her we were hotel guests (in order to get the discount on our meal) but I had already told that to the person I saw first, which was our waiter. We appreciated the discount as the meal prices aren’t cheap. The morning breakfast was excellent! A great variety of food, nutritious & delicious. So different from many hotel breakfasts in the USA. It was a short walk to the train station. Overall I would highly recommend the Hotel Derby!

Delta was beautiful in every way. Very courteous reception desk and clean and modern rooms. The location is absolutely perfect due to his proximity to the train station on the main street in the town. Highly recommend recommended and will come back again.

Hotel Derby was a very comfortable stay. The Good: - The staff was very accommodating and friendly - The room and facilities were very clean - Middle of shopping district in Zermat. Very busy and walkable environment. The Bad: - The room was fairly hot in the night time even with the heat off. We needed to open the window overnight which caused lot of noise in the late night and morning due to the location. - Water temperature was not very hot for shower - The mountain view is not a view of Matterhorn, rather some shorter mountains in the area. Barely viewable on the second highest floor balcony. - Breakfast was included but did not have too much options and had mediocre taste even compared to some cheaper stays in Swiss

Very nice hotel. I lucked out and got a room with a balcony. Room and facilities were well thought out to accommodate a ski vacation. Room was very clean and housekeeping was excellent. Price was on the low end for Zermatt so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I would stay here again and would recommend it to a single or couple travelling for a ski vacation.
