Family owned and run! Absolute perfect in every way! Stunning big bathroom! Huge fluffy towels changed everyday! Underfloor heating! Bedroom wasn’t big but it was so perfectly serviced and maintained one can’t fault it! Even fresh squeezed orange juice for breakfast! Directly at the bus stop! Owner was happy to come over to let very late arrivals in.

Location is outstanding. The hotel is traditional yet very comfortable. The views from the hotel stupendous. This is a place to come back again and again. The village of La Sage is unspoiled and charming, just right for hikers and those seeking peace and quiet.

We love this hotel. Their price-quality ratio for Grimentz is unbeatable for years, and that's why we always come to this hotel with a group of friends twice every winter. The rooms are nice and spacious, the staff is kind, the SPA is great and the breakfast is plentiful and yummy. Not to mention that you need 30 seconds to be at the cablecar start... Already looking forward to the winter 24/25 to be back at the Hotel Alpina :).
I have been going to Zinal for over a decade. I will try to be brief but the view and river is so calming. True there are getting to be more people but it just shows how magical the place is. Zinal is not very big but they have excellent restaurants. My all time favorite is the Trift. The chef is an artist.
The hike trails are breathtaking though not for beginners.
It is an excellent choice for a getaway in the Swiss mountains and to take in nature.
I have gone with my kids in the winter for skiing and they love it... also the summer but youth of today do not hike as much 🙃.
Last thing I can say is go check it out. For lovers of nature you won't be disappointed.

Zinal and Grimentz offer some great runs and they have a good lift system. For good skiers you can ski both resorts in a couple of days so best for a short break. Zinal is much smaller and quieter than Grimentz. Not much is open in the town during the daytime but there are some nice restaurants for dining.

Search no more -- Zinal is fantastic!
Search no more -- Zinal is fantastic! multiple tracks start in the village, and are accessible to everyone: kids, elderly, disabled... Beauty overload. don't miss Moiry glacier with its out of earth landscapes and Moiry lake of unreal turquoise color. Have a dinner at Le Besso -- they have a really talented Chef! My Thai friend who ordered a chicken wok kept saying "OMG, this is a real Asian taste!" after every bite. And their deserts -- OMG! they are exquisite (try Le Vacherin and Le Must -- they are truly MUST). Do you like rhubarb pies? If you do, go straight to Bulangerie in the center (opposite to Intersports) and you wont be disappointed. Overall -- magic place, which we did not want to leave and where we hope to return.

I will not be returning to the Swisspeak resort in Zinal or will I be recommending to family/friends
Liked · The location was a bit far out to be honest and it was more like a one horse town, not much really going on there.
Find the Swiss very stiff and rigid....be nice if they were more friendly and not so strict a bit more open etc....and smiled more and could be more friendly.
Disliked · The attitude of some of the staff for example....the answer given by them was....it's not my job.......
Snow and ice all over the property, all the steps up and down from the complexes were covered in ice and snow and were a danger to all staying there. All the road ways in and out of the complexes were covered in snow and ice especially around the road entrances to the car parking areas....was very disappointed in the safety aspects of this.

One one those hidden gems in the Swiss Alps.
One one those hidden gems in the Swiss Alps. No rushes but decent skiing and other activities. Good restaurants and shops despite the size of the village. Road from the valley is also always a venture.

Zonal was a charming stop on our C-Z trek.
Zonal was a charming stop on our C-Z trek. There were several hotels in town but I feel Hotel le Trift offered the best value and experience. There was an ATM and grocery store in town, which was really convenient.
Nice, clean buildings and rooms, well placed for the ski lift. Parking is good with a ledge to protect the car even if not parked in the garage area. Rooms are spacious for two but I would suspect a little too small for older groups of four. Zinal is a excellent area for walks to the south into the mountains, although there is danger of avalanche at some periods. Breakfast in la ferme is very pleasant and recommended as part of the stay. The skiing is good at Zinal, at least for experienced visitors. The local cafes are very friendly.
This establishment not only fails to meet the basic standards of hospitality but also seems to take a perverse pride in its ability to diminish the guest experience. With its subpar cleanliness, abysmal service, and a complete lack of courtesy or empathy, I urge potential visitors to steer clear of this hotel. It's a stark warning that high rates do not guarantee quality, and one is better off seeking accommodation that values the dignity and well-being of its guests
When we go to Zinal it's hard to tell if it's for the food at this place or the skiing. Either way, we only go when we can find a room available in the small Pension de la Poste. Rooms are practical and space is good enough for a weekend trip. Beds are good and bathrooms fairly new. For Valais the standard is really good and the hospitality is awesome! Be sure to book your table for the evening supper as the food is excellent. The skilifts are a short stroll away.
Of all the places we stayed in Switzerland this had the best value -- stayed two nights here, great service, great food, great central location right in the middle of Zinal, easy check in, nothing bad to say about the place. Also helped us out a great deal with laundry service. Would stay here again no question do NOT miss the side trip to Grimentz up the valley.
Very spacious and comfortable room. The restaurant was great and we enjoyed a great fondue there! Breakfast was also good but lacked gluten-free options. Parking is somewhat limited and we had to find alternatives on both nights (not an issue though, just a bit of a hassle to find a suitable spot as it is not allowed to park across from the hotel).
The staff are incredibly friendly. The tall man who works the front desk/restaurant did an amazing job of making us feel welcome. The hotel is in a great location, just a quick walk to ski rentals and the gondola up the mountain. The Spa is incredibly nice, and we liked that it requires reservations as you usually have it to yourself.
Very good base for the famous Zinal glacier cave hike, only about a five minutes walk to the start of the trail. Basic but very tasty breakfast with cold cuts, cheeses, eggs and birchermüsli to prepare guests for a day of hiking. Really sweet, kind staff, always smiling and attentive to their guests.
A very beautiful and clean new apartment located in the town of Zinal, the owners are kind and answer every question with a smile, suitable for fans of skiing and the lovely Swiss nature, amazing hiking trails, attractions and more... I will return to this place without a second thought..
Great, simple hotel. Perfect for a couple of days getaway skiing. Great location in the center and close to gondola station and bus station. I was amazed by the great food of the restaurant. Wonderful cook and friendly staff.
Cute, cozy room. Excellent breakfast. Good location right on the main road and easy walking to/from hiking trails and also close to the amazing public spa! (And at which you get a discount for staying at Pointe Zinal).
Excellent stay - Beautiful property, large comfy room. Views were magnificent, staff was very friendly. No fridge in the room but wasn't an issue for us and not uncommon for hotels like this. Overall great stay.
Extremely functional, practical, very well equipped apartments,.perfect for family of 4. Loved it, already our second time there. Can't beat the value, and zinal is a great destination for spring skiing
Great vibe. Lots of locals frequent the restaurant/bar. Unpretentious and friendly proprietors. The Trift Burger was delicious and the perfect reward after a challenging descent from Cabane de Moiry.
second time at the hotel - all is perfect,
the stuff is extremely helpful and kind,the hotel is clean, breakfast is great, located in the center of Zinal, not much to add, excellent!
Great place to stay in the middle of a long trek through the alps. There wasn’t much open the evening we were there so we had dinner in the hotel restaurant - it was delicious!
