Mountain views don’t come much more Heidi than the spectacular views from the Christiania Penthouse. Brand new for the 2017/18 ski season, this luxury duplex apartment in Zermatt sits proudly at the top of a beautiful building and looks out onto the Matterhorn itself.
Its fabulous location is the perfect setting for a truly memorable get-together with friends or family. Sleeping 14 guests in seven beautifully designed bedrooms kitted out with luxury linens, and spa-style bathrooms, there’s plenty of room here for everyone both to socialise together and find a little peace and quiet of your own.
The living space is what really makes this luxury ski chalet. A huge, open-plan seating area, with capacious sofas gathered around a roaring fire, offers a simply stunning spot to catch up with the rest of your party after a day on Zermatt’s slopes.
Kick back and warm yourselves by the fire while your chef puts together a spectacular evening meal and your host tops up your bubbly.
This luxury ski chalet is tantalisingly close to the slopes so you can be out in the snow within moments in the morning. There are two lifts within 10 minutes’ walk of the front door. And when your muscles start to feel the strain you can be back at Christiania Penthouse in no time, boots drying for you in the ski room and your feet up with homemade cakes and hot drinks by the fire.
In the afternoons, spend a few hours in the fabulous private sauna easing the strains of the slopes away on your luxury ski holiday, or gather with the rest of your party in the cosy TV room for a film matinee before champagne appears and the evening commences. After a gourmet four-course meal, take your wine out onto the balcony and catch the best view in Zermatt – the stars twinkling on over the iconic Matterhorn.
