Host was phenomenal with communication and flexibility. Check in process was easy and as descibed. Great location for main attractions! Phenomenal
Balcony!!
The apartment was really quite cozy and just a stones throw from the lifts. We all took our morning coffee on the balcony and enjoyed the view of town and the Matterhorn, delightful! The host was very helpful and extremely approachable and we experienced no glitches. Would highly recommend this location to friends and family.
Lovely apartment, good size for the family. Excellent lounge area and separate kitchen and everything we needed for our stay. For us, the location was the final icing on the cake. 100m from the Matterhorn express and 150m from our favourite bar. All in all win win.

Thank you so much for your kind review. We look forward to hosting you again soon. Keep in touch!
The apartment has everything you need - good location, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, outdoor space, washing machine, etc. It felt “right” in every way.
Nice comfortable clean and spacious apartment only a few steps away from the Furi-cablecar. Everything you need is there. Only the 40 steps to the entrance of Gornerwald are in a questionable state and a bit slippery.
Highly recommended apartment .

Thank you for your lovely comments - we will follow up on the steps and make sure they are safe. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Nicki
The location of this condo is great - close to the lift and to town. We could walk everywhere. There are about 25 steps up to the entrance door which I wasn’t expecting but we are in good shape so it wasn’t an issue. Overall it was smaller than I was expecting from the pictures, especially the kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked though. We were disappointed the fireplace didn’t work but the heat was sufficient to keep us plenty warm. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!
The property was spotless and very comfortable for our family of five. We had my ten year old sleep on a pull away cot in the family room which was comfortable. The kitchen though small is well stocked with cooking supplies and we cooked in three nights and made breakfast every morning. The views are spectacular and it’s a very short walk to the lift and not too long into town. Really great restaurants and groceries within minutes. The place was nicely decorated and felt like home. We made awesome memories there toasting the new year from the balcony as fireworks exploded over the town and lit up the mountains. Would highly recommend! Also, Nikki was super easy to communicate with.
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It has 2 bed rooms and served our family of 5 (2adults and 3 kids) well. The living room is spacious with a large TV. Kitchen and a washing machine are a plus. Condo is very clean and is actually nicer than the pictures on VRBO. It is a couple minutes walk to the Zermatt glacier gondola station and a rental ski shop. A storage for your skis is available on the first floor of the condo.
A 5 minute taxi or 15 minute walk from the Zermatt station, where you can enjoy shopping and eating out.
Would definitely consider returning to this place on our next visit.

Thank you for your review and very kind words. We hope to welcome you next time you are in Zermatt, please keep in touch!!
Appartement spacieux, bien agencé à 3 minutes des remontées.
Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir à séjourner dans cet appartement, idéal pour 4 personnes. Les pièces sont spacieuses, bien agencées, il a tout le matériel nécessaire, la literie est confortable et l'emplacement est idéal à 3 minutes à pied du départ de Furi. Le centre n'est qu'à 8-10 minutes à pied. La procédure de check-in et check-out est très simple. A recommander.

L'appartement est très agréable, bien équipé et la propreté est impeccable.
Il est idéalement situé à 2 minutes à pied du Télécabine Matterhorn express et à 10 minutes à pied du centre ville.
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour.
Die Kommunikation, sowie die Lage für das Skifahren ist perfekt. 2-3 Minuten zur Bahn. Die Wohnung ist sauber und hat alles was es braucht. Gerne wieder!!

Vielen Dank für Ihre freundliche Bewertung, wir freuen uns, Sie beim nächsten Mal begrüßen zu dürfen.
Appartement très confortable, bien équipé et surtout très bien placé (5min à pied des télécabines et à 8min du centre du village).
Vue sur le Cervin depuis les fauteuils du salon - Top !
Literies confortables.
Bémol : placards défraîchis et abimés (il pourrait en avoir moins de meilleur qualité) , sèche-cheveux qui date, bouches de ventilation empoussierées , rideaux non opaques et faux- bois dans la cheminée
Ann was the most gracious and wonderful host. Her recommendations were excellent and she made herself more than available during our stay. The apartment is in the most ideal location. It’s is a 5 minute walk to the lift and 10-15 min walk to restaurants, shops, après-ski and the rest of the village. The views are spectacular, we enjoyed a few evenings cooking in the well equipped kitchen and just relaxing with games and movies in the large living room. You will absolutely love this place!!

I am so pleased that you. enjoyed your stay in my apartment in Haus Gornerwald. After all the waiting and uncertainty I am glad it was worth it: your review says it all and I thank you very much for taking the time to write it. Stay safe and hopefully see you again soon.
It was an excellent stay in Zermatt!
The apartment is not the closest to the railway station (but there are frequent taxis that can take you anywhere), but on the other side, it’s perfectly located to go on the mountain, skiing on Matterhorn paradise. Since it can be either one or the other, we were happy to enjoy the closeness every day in and out of the slopes, while we managed coming in from the Zermatt train shuttle. Just a very short walk to the Matterhorn express ski lifts, ski school meeting point (Stoked ski school) and also the ski rentals with Dorsaz shop. Everything was very close and in only one place. The appartement was extremely clean and tidy, with everything one would need for one week stay. With sun and snow at rdv, it was a truly the perfect stay. And ... a gorgeous view of the mountains all day around.

Very glad you had a good holiday and enjoyed Zermatt and the apartment. I appreciate you taking the time to write a review, thank you so much.
Wonderful apartment close to Matterhorn Express gondola
As a family of 4, we really enjoyed staying in this apartment, which is only a 5 minute walk from the Matterhorn Express gondola. The apartment is spacious, and we appreciated having two bathrooms for the family. It is only a 10-15 minute walk into town, which was very practical for groceries, coffee from one of the local cafes or take out. It should be noted that there are about 20-30 steps to get up to the apartment from the street, which may be relevant for older guests or families with young children. The host Ann was incredibly helpful in providing us with information/tips and answering our various questions about skiing in Zermatt.

About the host
Hosted by Nicki
We have been going to Zermatt for over 20 years and have definitely fallen under its spell. The mighty Matterhorn towering above the little village can leave no one indifferent. Anna and Nicki's late mother bought the property in 2003 and managed it up until she died in 2022. Nicki now manages the property along with her army of helpers based in Zermatt.
Why they chose this property
Gornerwald property was acquired in 2003 when the estate agent told us of a proposal to build a lift from Furi to Riffelberg. This effectively was the missing link to connect up the whole area in both directions from the departure station of the Matterhorn Express, which is just 100 meters from the apartment.
What makes this property unique
In less than 5 minutes in ski boots you can be on your way to Italy, or the Gornergrat area or all the way over to Sunnegga...just depends where the best snow is!
