Petit Helvetia Budget Hotel Reviews

Small room with basic amenities. The room is very close to the main street where at night it’s super noisy with the bar downstairs. The breakfast is simple and fine. I’d only suggest if you’re on a budget and looking for a short stay.

Location is good, variety of breakfast choice are not much but breads are taste good.

Initially I was a bit apprehensive about this hotel based on reviews but it was a good stay!! Great value for Zermatt! Walking distance about 10 mins from Zermatt station, on shopping street. Toilets and stairway up a bit small but ok for us. Luckily we were located on first floor so didn’t have to climb up too many stairs with our luggage. There’s a pizzeria below. Things to note: didn’t see a bin ( only a small one in toilet) so maybe bring your own plastic bag for a bin as well as room slippers. Place was clean! However there’s some loud music that played even in the wee hours of the night like 3am, so if you are a light sleeper, you might need to put on some ear plugs to muffle the noise out. Nonetheless, A huge thank you for the stay. Convenient, Breakfast was awesome, simple spread but very heartwarming and the coffee was the most delicious I’ve had. It was the Easter weekend so there’s pretty Easter eggs for breakfast too! The lady owner was lovely and check in and check out was very easy and seamless. We stayed for a night and would recommend this place.

The location is very good, in the center of the city. The bar is not very noisy at night. The breakfast is quite satisfactory. Except that the hotel is not easy to find. It is on the second floor in a narrow corridor. Everything else is OK. It is worth recommending. After all, Zermatt is relatively expensive.

The location is good, about 400 meters from the train station, and the streets are very lively. In the morning, I was very excited to see the Sunshine Jinshan in the room. The service staff are warm and friendly. But the facilities are a bit outdated and the rooms are a bit cramped.

great hotel

Beautiful, quaint, historic property, right on the main street in zurich. You can't beat it for charm and location. Clean, tidy. On the small side, but for the price i think it was great! It can be a bit noisy if your room is in the front and on a lower floor, but nothing a pair of Earplugs won't solve!

This is a lovely quaint hotel and we liked the room. However we had to check ourselves in and were disappointed with staff insisting on immediate cash payment when we went down for breakfast. The room was prepared for the next guests while we were at breakfast, including personal items being moved. This is not appropriate

Cozy, comfortable. Easy to check in. Staff pleasant. Continental breakfast was good. Cons-Noisy at night, bathroom issues but usable.

The hotel is located in the middle of the main strasse in Zermatt, close to everything. The property is very old and currently under renovation (I think). The stairway is hard to climb and dangerous, often dark. The walls are bare drywall with exposed wiring. Our room on the fourth floor had a great view and a large shower, after that nothing good. The bed collapsed during the night, I fell through to the floor. The floors are on a slant and the bathroom has a small dangerous step to the toilet and shower from the sink. The on property staff is quite rude and showed no interest in the issues with the room. The housekeeper was pleasant and nice and did a good job. I checked out after the first night and found a new hotel. I have to say the owner, who is off property, did issue me a full refund and apologies. I am very grateful for his generosity. Perhaps the hotel will be better by next season. I hope so.

Our room is always kept clean. It's in the middle of the town, found in between the train station and matterhorn cable car. Very convenient location. The only cons is that there's no lift/elevator in the hotel.

Rundown hotel. No elevator, bed slats constantly falling out, linens and bedding old. At time of booking we requested a lower floor but we were put on the top (fifth) floor. Noise all night from a nearby bar.

I woul like to comment about the room. It was very noisy, looks under construction, the staff are not that helpful, bathroom are very small, and they have early check out which we rushed packing our stuff. And also food in the breakfast are not that bad. The hotel are very dark and there’s no elevator. The good thing is in the downtown area which I like. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone especially for the elders.

Central location, close to everything and breakfast included.
