The Omnia
Resort: Zermatt
Highlights: Serenely resting atop Zermatt’s central village is THE OMNIA Mountain Lodge. Like its more rustic neighbors below, THE OMNIA has an angular wooded exterior that melds wonderfully with its conifer-filled surroundings. But unlike most structures in the area, this mountainside retreat adds an elegant, contemporary allure to the natural setting. Here, stone pines mingle with spacious rooms and a Finnish sauna. Birches blend brilliantly with breathtaking views and unbelievable cuisine.
This complex coupling has a simple source — architect Ali Tayar. The late visionary employed elements of an American mountain lodge (crackling fireplaces, brown leather furnishings) done with a global wink (a Turkish bath, Australian toiletries). The result is a 30-room stunner sitting in the majestic Matterhorn’s shadows.
The views alone are worthy of a stay. But lucky for you, the priceless vistas are only enhanced by minimally arranged rooms, four dining options, an indoor/outdoor pool and a flower steam room you would never envision finding atop a Swiss mountain village.
