Overlook Lodge by Cervo Zermatt

The room is very nice, and you can see the Matterhorn when you get up. However, this hotel does not have a free shuttle. If you drag your luggage there, you have to climb a long hill. . Almost exhausted

When we entered the apartment, the first thing that struck us was the elegant design and the fantastic view of the Matterhorn. At second glance, we thought of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Only it didn't have seven little forks, seven little spoons and seven little knives, but exactly four of each. Incidentally, the second bedroom with the bunk bed is so tiny that the dwarfs are better off taking off their pointed hats and coats in front of the door because it gets too cramped inside. We would have preferred a shower there - the spacious bathroom has a tub with a glass pane covering half the side. I always manage to flood the room and getting in and out is always a sporting challenge. But enough slander. The apartment is really a force, a large, covered, wind and weather-protected seat with a pretty designer table, where you have to be careful that the cutlery doesn't fall through the metal rungs, placemats would be practical. A huge, sunny garden terrace with lots of privacy, two umbrellas and three loungers. Spacious eat-in kitchen with a light-flooded living room and pretty furniture. All color matched perfectly. Incidentally, in addition to the limited number of cutlery and glasses, the kitchen is surprisingly well equipped, Nesspresso coffee machine, first-class dishwasher, induction cooker with 4 plates, efficient exhaust hood, super oven with steamer, microwave, huge refrigerator, pans and what is a lack in some holiday apartments, here even with matching lids, raclette oven, fondue rechaud. A paradise for the ambitious amateur cook. Even a recipe book entitled "Cooking really well with a maximum of 6 ingredients". I leafed through it a bit, but the first few pages had ingredients that are hardly available in Zermatt in July, for example green asparagus or Thuringian Mett, whatever that is, maybe you can find something like that on the animal feed rack in the supermarket. But, as I said, the apartment is like a fairy tale. In the spacious bedroom there is a really comfortable double bed with comfortable bed linen and enough closets. We really liked it and when we travel to Zermatt again, we will gladly book this apartment again, if they let us in again after I slandered something here on Tripadvisor and one of the four glasses in the dishwasher broke on the last evening because I stuffed it in too tight.
