Are most hotels in Switzerland per person, per night? I'm trying to find a three star hotel for a few nights but am finding most of the places are per person....making rooms fairly expensive. Any ideas?

I don't know what you want from a 3 star hotel but here is my experience of last June. Stayed at Hotel Primavera (try google search. they have a site together with its sister hotel, Excelsior). 2 star rated and located near Sunnegga(spell?)/Rothorn station, a quiet area. The hotel had no transfer service but only 10 minutes walk. No fancy room, no TV but otherwise quite alright. The best was we had a Matterforn view with a big window + a balcony large enough for two to sit after a day of hiking and was great to sip a few glasses of chilled wine watching Matterhorn till sunset. I found the the rate of sfr 150.- for our double room (not per person)including simple buffet breafast a great value. The rooms not facing Matterhorn were sfr30 cheaper.

&gt; only 10 minutes walk.<BR><BR>I meant 10 min. from Zermatt railway station.

Thanks!<BR><BR>I'll check it out.

Kelli -<BR><BR>When in Zermatt, we stay at the Hotel Biner, a three star hotel located five minutes by foot from the train station and about a 10-15 minute walk from the center of the village.<BR><BR>We really like this hotel - I just checked out their website and it indicates there is no additional charge for single rooms, so it looks like they may be able to help you out.<BR><BR>Their address is www.hotel-biner-zermatt.ch.<BR><BR>Hope this helps -

Good morning, Kelli Have used the<BR>Schweizerhof ( 2 min from Bahnhof).<BR>and the Monte Rosa (5 mins walk up the<BR>main drag. The Hotel Julen has been<BR>on travel sites last year and it is <BR>in a good location just about two blocks<BR>north of the church, 15 mins walk.<BR>If you go to www.zermatt.ch you will<BR>find a complete list of Zermatt hotels<BR>along with a map to locate them.<BR>Must make mention of the Bahnhof Buffet<BR>located in the station, had a couple<BR>of excellant Swiss meals..Also the China<BR>Garden which was a change from the norm.<BR>Richard of LaGrange Park, Il

But Richard, the hotels you mentioned are all 4-star rated and seem expensive to me.
