PREMIUM ALPINE RESIDENCE WITH DESIGNER KITCHEN AND HOTEL SPA ACCESS
Welcome to Résidence Whymper, an exclusive 278 m² luxury apartment in the heart of Zermatt, Switzerland. Set within a modern Alpine chalet-style building with a south-facing orientation, this exceptionally spacious residence combines elegant design, generous living areas and breathtaking views of the Matterhorn.
Located on the second floor of the Whymper building, the apartment accommodates up to 10 guests across four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. A spacious open-plan living and dining area, a designer kitchen with a breakfast bar, sunny balconies and convenient access to the neighbouring hotel's wellness facilities make this a distinctive choice for families and groups seeking a premium Alpine stay.
The residence takes its name from Edward Whymper, the mountaineer recognised as the first to reach the summit of the Matterhorn. Its setting, spacious interiors and impressive mountain views reflect the special character of Zermatt.
A PRIME LOCATION IN CENTRAL ZERMATT
Résidence Whymper is situated in one of Zermatt's most convenient central locations, placing shops, transport connections and recreational facilities within a short walk.
The train station and Gornergrat Railway are approximately two minutes away on foot, making arrivals and mountain excursions easy to organise. The Sunnegga funicular can be reached in around five minutes, while the shopping centre with a Coop supermarket is approximately one minute away.
A large ski and bike shop offering purchases and rentals is also around one minute from the building. The nearby ice rink is approximately one minute away and the tennis courts are available in summer, giving guests convenient access to activities throughout the year.
Despite being close to the village's everyday conveniences and transport connections, the apartment provides a spacious and comfortable retreat from which to enjoy the surrounding Alpine scenery.
SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION FOR UP TO 10 GUESTS
With 278 m² of living space, this residence offers exceptional room for families and groups travelling together. The apartment features four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and balcony, providing a comfortable balance of shared living areas and individual privacy.
Three bedrooms each contain a double bed measuring 180 × 200 cm. The fourth bedroom is designed with four single bunk beds measuring 80 × 200 cm, making it particularly suitable for children or additional guests travelling as part of a group.
The four-bedroom layout accommodates up to 10 guests and is well suited to family holidays, group ski trips and gatherings where everyone can stay together in one spacious property.
FOUR BEDROOMS WITH PRIVATE BATHROOMS
Each bedroom has its own bathroom, providing added comfort and convenience for larger groups.
The master bedroom includes both a shower and a bathtub, offering extra flexibility for relaxing and getting ready. The other bedrooms also have their own bathroom facilities, helping guests enjoy greater privacy throughout their stay.
Every bedroom also has access to a balcony, adding an outdoor element to the private sleeping spaces and complementing the apartment's sunny, south-facing orientation.
OPEN-PLAN LIVING AND DESIGNER KITCHEN
The spacious living area is designed to bring everyone together. Its open-plan layout combines the living and dining spaces with a large designer kitchen, creating a welcoming environment for shared meals, conversation and relaxing after a day in the mountains.
The kitchen includes a convivial breakfast bar, providing a convenient place for morning coffee, a quick bite before heading out or casual conversation while meals are being prepared.
The generous proportions of the living space make it easy for a group to spend time together without feeling crowded. Whether you are planning the day's activities, enjoying a meal or unwinding after skiing, the open layout supports a relaxed and sociable stay.
SUNNY BALCONIES WITH MATTERHORN VIEWS
The apartment enjoys a south-facing orientation, with spacious balconies offering breathtaking views of the Matterhorn. The mountain panorama is one of the property's defining features, bringing Zermatt's iconic landscape into everyday moments during your stay.
Step outside to enjoy the fresh Alpine air, take in the surrounding peaks or spend a quiet moment admiring the scenery. With balconies connected to the bedrooms as well as the apartment's broader living areas, the outdoor spaces complement the generous interior and provide opportunities to appreciate the mountain setting.
Whether you visit in winter or summer, the Matterhorn views make the residence a memorable place to return to after exploring the village and surrounding mountains.
