Chalet Pollux is one of our four unique residences in Zermatt (Chalets Ibron, Castor and Gemini being the other three). Its location provides the best of both worlds: spectacular views and easy access – 200m from the Matterhorn Express base lift station and resort run, there is a street level tunnel which leads you to a lift (elevator) built inside the mountain, from the top of which there is a gentle 2 minute walk to the chalets. The chalet comes with an electro wagon and stair lift which our staff will use to move your luggage and shopping as required.
A luxurious free standing three storey independent chalet with 4 bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, large enough for families or groups 8. All the beds can be configured as doubles or twins. There is also a unique private outdoor hot-tub on the terrace.
Side by side, tucked against a beautiful hillside, the numerous balconies and large terraces give you bird’s eye views of the village and the surrounding mountains, encompassing all 3 of Zermatt’s ski areas. Although it does not have a Matterhorn view, the sun bathes the chalet is as soon as it emerges. Chalet Pollux is immediately opposite Chalet Ibron.
The tunnel and elevator bring you high above the village providing a true sense of mountain seclusion and tranquility with breathtaking views.
Guests can leave their snowsports equipment in the ski-room, located in the tunnel. The entrance to the tunnel is 200 metres from the end of the ski runs beneath the Matterhorn Express lift station, just a 5 minute walk from the church square.
On the ground floor you have the sitting room and an open-plan kitchen with the dining table, both going on to the terrace accessed through French doors. There at Chalet Pollux you can enjoy the use of its own unique, private outdoor hot-tub surrounded by snow in the winter, and alpine meadows in the summer – perfect to relax and enjoy the view (or the stars) after a long day in the mountains.
There is also a utility room with washing machine and dryer, and a guest WC.
The first floor has two double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, a large master bedroom and a smaller double/twin bedroom. Similarly on the second floor, 2 more double rooms with en-suite bathrooms, a large master bedroom and a smaller double/twin bedroom. All rooms have balconies with south east views over the village and mountains.
The chalet has tasteful decoration, delicately combining an alpine, cosy and contemporary finish, with liberal use of wood and stone. It has all the latest technology with flat-screen TVs, more than a hundred satellite channels, a fireplace and geothermal heating to reduce the chalet’s carbon foot-print.
Chalet Pollux is a rare gem; a large freestanding chalet which was conceived to meet your needs and wishes to the fullest possible extent.
Perched above Zermatt village, Chalet Pollux is in a unique location. Modern in design with a hint of Swiss tradition. It is the mirror image of Chalet Castor.
