Sumptuous spa hotel with great breakfast
Liked : This is a cosy, spa and wellness-focussed luxury alpine hotel. The breakfast was really delicious including homemade sourdough baked goods and kombucha, in a room with huge windows so we could enjoy the snowfall. The spa is wonderful, with a big pool, jacuzzi, multiple sauna/steam options. It never felt busy and we wound down from skiing there every day. The hotel staff were really friendly. The rooms were lovely, and had ample storage space plus a sitting area and balcony. The whole hotel was clean, cosy and smelled great. The bar was great, delicious cocktails and such a cosy space. Whether or not you were skiing, being in the hotel was an absolute treat.
Disliked : The only critique that we had with the hotel is that it's a good 15 minute walk from any of the ski lifts and we probably wouldn't stay here again for this reason alone. One day one of our party was unwell and the hotel wouldn't send their transfer even on an exceptional basis - the distance felt really far that day. We also wouldn't re-book the 'Matterhorn view' rooms - we didn't see it 5/6 days of our stay because of the snow so it wasn't worth the additional charge.

Wonderful ski vacation at The Rex!
Liked : All facilities were decorated with great taste. The spa was amazing. There is a bakery inside the hotel with the most delicious pastry and the bread. The hotel location is close to bars and restaurants. The hotel offers pickup & drop-off from the train station. Highly recommended!

JohnUnited States · Feb 23, 2025 9Exceptional
Liked : The view of the Matterhorn from our room was outstanding. Hotel was nice overall, the spa was great, and we enjoyed the breakfast every morning. Location was pretty good, within 10 minutes walking distance of the train station and all three ways to get up the mountain.
Disliked : Pillows were very flat and awkwardly large, making them pretty uncomfortable. We requested extras but they had the same issue. Rather than one large mattress, we had two twin mattresses pushed together with separate blankets that felt flimsy and cheap. A little confusing considering how much we paid for the room.
