Great Place in Zermatt!
Firefly is a wonderful place in a great location with outstanding service. Our family of 5 really enjoyed the extra space versus traditional hotel rooms. The common spaces were fun and inventive, the finishes high end, the breakfast convenient and delicious. Thank you for a great stay.

Absolutely loved The Firefly. Staff was very kind and super helpful. The Spa was very clean and had all the good stuff🤗. Great views from our beautiful room and it was quiet. Easy walk to the shops and restaurant and short walk to the glacier express gondola. I can’t say enough about The Firefly. Definitely going back!

Amazing hotel!
Absolutely gorgeous hotel - we rented the suite that has three bedrooms and it was so perfect and well stocked for our group. We had a cozy living room with a fireplace so we could all hang out after a long day of exploring. The views were excellent, great location & walkable to everything. It was very hot in the bedrooms - doesn’t seem like the AC really worked (in any of the places we stayed in Switzerland) so maybe adding fans in the room would be helpful. Had some laundry done and it was outrageously expensive. The other thing only thing I didn’t love was the clear glass shower stall, which offers Little privacy, but besides that it was close to perfect. Bar, hot tub, pool etc all beautiful. Would 10000% recommend and would stay again!

Hotel Firefly was one of the most perfect hotels my wife and I have ever stayed in, truly! Upon arrival the front desk walked us around the property showing us the complimentary spa area which we used each day to warm up in the evenings. Our bags were in our room when we arrived and the room even had a small kitchen so we could make a couple meals which was nice since we were almost two weeks into our vacation upon arrival. The breakfast being served in your room was amazing as well to let you feel like you were home. The location is fantastic and the room was clean and well prepared. Will never stay anywhere else in Zermatt when we return!

Perhaps the most welcoming experience that we have had. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful.
Location is very good, walking distance to lifts and to a broad range of restaurants.
The pool and jacuzzi have a unique vibe.
Highly recommended as a top choice in Zermatt.
