Zermatt

Slopeside lodging of 13,000 beds is available; additional lodging facilities available nearby. If you fancy a night in the snow on the Gornergrat, there is actually an igloo village in this snowy white world! The igloos, artistically enhanced by sculptures carved by Inuit Bill Nasogaluak provide the backdrop for an unforgettable night high in the mountains. At 2727 metres above seal-level, below the Gornergrat, the Igloo Village offers romantic suites for two and igloos for groups of 6. It’s certainly one of the most specialised hotels in the world. To get them in the mood, guests are presented with a cool glass of champagne in the heated whirlpool as the magnificent panorama high above Zermatt spreads out before them. Sheer luxury in an unspoilt natural setting! More information is available from: www.iglu-dorf.ch
