Youth hostel that offers great breakfast included in daily rate. Its dinner is freshly cooked decent three courses for 20CHF, where any other restaurant in town start their main course at 25CHF. A budget friendly place for a few nights stay in Zermatt, considering how expensive the town is.

Matterhorn at last!
This is only the second stay I've had in a hostel and it was a very nice experience. We ended up getting a room with its own bathroom and a view of the Matterhorn out our window. The room wasn't all furnished (e.g., TV) but it had everything one needed and was spacious for a hostel. The breakfast was as good as any other hotel we stayed at on our trip and saved us at least $40 franks both days. Getting to and from the hostel was easy enough while walking or riding the local bus (red line to Luchre) from the main station. I would stay here again, no questions asked for the price and what you get.

Stayed in a private room and we got an amazing view of the Matterhorn. The beds and pillows were comfy (the best in Switzerland so far). Not a super social hostel but they had a bunch of games in the main area. Served dinner each night if you wanted to buy. The breakfast was great!! So many different options and I liked it was all local. Would recommend to stay here! It is a trek from town with bags but very doable. The last little bit is via stairs (the way google took us) but you can get there via road to avoid the last steep set of stairs.
