The Backstage holiday chalet perfectly complements the Backstage Hotel. The chalet is just a five minutes' walk from the hotel, situated in a quiet residential district in the centre of Zermatt, and at the same time centrally located in relation to the cable cars to the respective skiing resorts. The luxury chalet is based on an old Valais house dating from the 1940s, which Heinz Julen has modernised and extended by two storeys in line with the chalet nature of the building.
This extension has been constructed exclusively from local larch and designed to include large areas of glass, providing a spectacular 360 degree panoramic view over the village and the Matterhorn. The chalet has 5 double bedrooms, one of them containing a high sleeper, and thus an extra bed, making it ideal to make any child's dreams come true. The roof structure has open gables, and provides an open living, dining and kitchen space, with the fireplace giving the place a cosy atmosphere.
Heinz has devised and built a spectacular pool - a fascinatingly small feat of engineering, that is probably unique among its kind worldwide. The pool accommodates up to 6 people. At the press of a button the roof opens, and the pool is hydraulically lifted above the roof. The view from there is breathtaking, making the experience unique and memorable. To complete this exclusive experience, the chalet's own spa facility even includes a sauna. The bedrooms are spread over two storeys below.
Right down in the cellar, the Zermatt luxury ski chalet in addition has a small private home cinema and games room, and is equipped with Internet facilities and a workstation, and, also, a toilet and shower can be found there. Right next door is the skiing room, with heated ski boot racks. All these rooms have access to a private lift. The chalet has an overall surface of 320sqm. Naturally all the furniture and furnishings have been developed and manufactured in the Heinz Julen studio in Zermatt. The chalet is moreover equipped with contemporary art from Zermatt's art rooms. Here Heinz focuses on cosiness and tradition, blended with a modern-day flair, in an impressive manner, making you instantly feel at home.
However, there is also an exclusive team, led by hostess Anna, a cook and chalet maids, dedicated to making your stay as perfect as possible. On six evenings our exclusive cookery team headed by Ivo Adam will cook for you on site. Once a week you can sample our top quality "after seven" restaurant. There you will be our VIP chalet guests, and take your place at the centrally situated family table. During the week the infrastructure of the Backstage Hotel, including spa, cinema, etc., is available to you free of charge.
