Chalet Backstage, Zermatt, Switzerland

The Backstage Chalet in Zermatt is one of the resort's premier chalets and another signature property from Heinz Julen, the celebrated local architect and interior designer that has done so much in recent years to put Zermatt squarely on the luxury chalet map. This design lead chalet has been created from an original 1940's chalet with great views of the iconic Matterhorn Mountain and is situated beside the river that flows through Zermatt. The centre of the resort is about 5 minutes walk away and the main Klein Matterhorn lift is less than 200 metres away.

The chalet has its own private entrance and internal lift that serves all floors apart from the very uppermost level. This top floor contains the impressive main living and dining area which is a light filled space owing to the large amounts of glass and high ceilings. Also on this upper floor are the unique 4 person hot tub and a small sauna. The hot tub can be raised through the roof so that it sits outside the chalet in the open air - the views as you might imagine are pretty spectacular.

The five principal guest bedrooms, each with TV, are found on the two floors below the main living area. Some of the bedrooms have balcony and one has a 3rd bed (suitable for a child) on a mezzanine level. On the lowest floor is a dedicated cinema room, a ski and boot room and also a further shower room.

Please note that the chalet can be booked on either a catered or self catered basis. Please call for details.
