Individual ratings for Backstage Hotel Vernissage

Location
In the centre of Zermatt, opposite the skating rink and tennis courts. Both the Gornergrat electric railway station and the Sunnega railway station are just a 5-minute walk away.
Ambience
Urban coolness meets extravagance, the purist art of cooking and the very soul of the Valais.
Infrastructure
The fine-dining Restaurant "After Seven," a cinema, the lounge/bar "Vernissage," a terrace and small in-and-outdoor themed spa decorated with scenes from Genesis.
Culinary
During the winter season, star chef Ivo Adam heads the team of the hotel's fine-dining Restaurant "After Seven." There is no menu but simply one surprise dinner, and guests' choices are limited to a small or a large plate. The best table is no. 1, in the corner close to the wine rack.
Rooms
The 12 fashionably designed rooms and the 6 extravagant "Cube Lofts" are inhabitable works of art, each offering a one-off experience.
Service
Non-chalant without being tardy. Evelyne and Heinz Julen are fully devoted to the well-being of their guests.

Backstage Hotel Vernissage Hotel, Zermatt

The "Backstage" is a trailblazing hotel of the new generation, welcoming its guests with extravagant design and friendly service. Daring to be different, local artist and owner Heinz Julen successfully combined steel, concrete and glass into an accomplished whole. This is also where the "unplugged" events originated. The concert series "Zermatt Unplugged" has developed into a festival featuring well-known Swiss and international artists. The "Vernissage" club at the 4-star hotel "Backstage" is used as a backdrop for after-show parties during the festival, whereas during the winter season, it hosts fashionable parties and concerts. Both on stage and backstage, the mood is frolicsome and relaxed, as hosts and guests maintain an easygoing relationship.
Price range €€
Daring to be different, local artist and owner Heinz Julen successfully combined steel, concrete and glass into an accomplished whole. Guests at the hotel discover the kind of urban flair which design hotels in major Swiss cities frequently attempt but hardly ever accomplish.
The bathrooms are rather small!
