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 baths the chalet is as soon as it emerges. Chalet Ibron is immediately opposite Chalet Pollux which sleeps 8.
The tunnel and elevator bring you up high above the village providing a true sense of high mountain seclusion and tranquility with breathtaking views.
Guests can leave theirs skis and boots in the tunnel’s ski-room. The entrance to the tunnel is 200 metres from the end of the ski runs beneath the Matterhorn Express lift station, just a 4 minute walk from the church square.
It has the most luxurious and spacious master bedroom, with an open bath-tub, separate shower, separate W/C, and en-suite sauna, perfect to relax after a long day in the mountains. The second double bedroom is smaller and has no en-suite bathroom – it uses the bathroom on the first floor. Both these bedrooms have beautiful sloping wooden ceilings, and the master bedroom has a wide balcony with a glorious panorama.
On the ground floor you have the sitting room and an open-plan kitchen with the dining table, both giving on to the large terrace accessed through French windows. There is also a boot-room, utility room with washing machine and dryer, and a guest W/C. Ibron also has a large sunny terrace with tables, deck chairs and beautiful views.
The first floor has two double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms. The larger bedroom is L-shaped with a sitting / dressing area like a junior suite. The other bathroom has an extra door leading to the landing, providing access for the bedroom upstairs which has no en-suite. Both these bedrooms have large south-east facing balconies.
MX Zermatt has tastefully decorated the chalet, 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 150 channels, a rotating fireplace and geothermal heating to reduce the chalet’s carbon foot-print as much as possible.
