From 13th of November, our boutique hotel in Zermatt will have a new name: THE SIXTEEN 20, or simply 1,620 – named after Zermatt’s altitude, 1,620 metres above sea level.
The new name marks a new identity for our home. But much remains familiar: the hotel, our team and the warm way we welcome our guests.
Not a new hotel.
Not a new team.
Just a new name: 1620.
Welcome to THE sixteen-20
Zermatt, 1,620 m – somewhere above
THE LANDSCAPE BEGINS RIGHT OUTSIDE OUR DOOR
Between the Swiss Alps and the energy of Zermatt lies THE SIXTEEN 20 – a place for days in the mountains, quiet moments and evenings worth remembering. 21 cosy rooms and suites, a small wellness area, bar & lounge – and plenty of Zermatt right outside our door.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't. And then there are the mountains. 360 kilometres of pistes in winter, more than 100 kilometres of bike trails and around 400 kilometres of hiking trails in summer. Paragliding with views of the Matterhorn, first 4,000-metre peaks for those ready to go higher, and challenging alpine climbs on the Zinalrothorn, Weisshorn and Matterhorn for experienced mountaineers.
Whether you're here for adventure or simply for the view, Zermatt gives you every option. And THE SIXTEEN 20 is your place to come back to.
Discover Zermatt
Zermatt is more than the Matterhorn.
Zermatt has it all: powder snow and sun-drenched terraces. Summit highs and spa serenity. Head into the mountains early or linger in bed a little longer. Our hotel is your basecamp for everything that awaits outdoors — and your retreat when you return.
