Chalet Maurice

Chalet Maurice

Switzerland, Swiss Alps, Zermatt ~ 6 Bedrooms ~ 6 Bathrooms ~ Sleeps 8 to 12

Welcome to Chalet Maurice (sleeps 12)

Built in 2008, Maurice was the first of the few privately owned luxurious chalets in Zermatt. Chalet Maurice is accessed via a private funicular railway through the mountain, and located in the exclusive Petit Village area of Zermatt.

Sleek design with contemporary feel

This free standing property, designed by renowned architect Magali de Tscharner, is set into the mountainside with a magnificent view of the soaring Matterhorn. It offers a comfortable contemporary feel using a combination of local materials, natural fabrics and simple elegant lines.

Chalet Maurice is filled with sumptuous fabrics and rich wood in palates of charcoal grey, cream and white, all combining to form a luxurious and chic alpine retreat. The spacious open plan living area and dining room create a feeling of comfort and light. Large south-facing balconies on each floor, offer the perfect spot to sunbathe and soak up the breathtaking views.

6 spacious en-suite bedrooms

The chalet sleeps 12 guests in 6 large en-suite bedrooms spread over multiple floors. 5 of the 6 bedrooms all feature private balcony / terrace overlooking the Matterhorn and surrounding mountain terrain. The master suite is spread over the entire top floor, featuring an open fire, a double height pitched ceiling and floor to ceiling windows.

Each en-suite bathroom is equipped with a bath or shower, dazzling chrome accessories, towel heaters and large walled mirrors. Grey charcoal tile finishings create a smooth aesthetic and real ‘James Bond’ feel.

Total relaxation in your private wellness / spa area

At Chalet Maurice you can enjoy a range of wellness facilities to help you unwind. Featuring a sauna, dedicated shower & WC, massage room and outdoor terrace with loungers and Jacuzzi.

A complete package in the finest luxury ski chalet Switzerland has to offer

Lavish all inclusive drinks package

To cater for the wide variety of preferences required by our guests, Elysian Collection has put together a comprehensive drinks package. Take advantage of unlimited champagne, wines, beer, spirits, mixers, soft drinks, juices, teas and coffees. We only offer premium brands and your chalet staff are ready to make drinks for your group as required.

Luxury dining and 7-star cuisine

Chalet Maurice is not like all other luxury ski chalets Switzerland has to offer. We differentiate ourselves by providing Michelin star quality culinary experiences for our guests. Structure your meals anywhere from 1 to 7 courses – your private chef will provide you with a new menu every single day. If anyone in your group has allergies or dietary preferences these will be effortlessly catered to. A separate menu for children can also be created if so desired. With our vast supplier network Elysian Collection only uses the best quality, locally sourced and organic where possible, fresh ingredients. Enjoy an equally lavish spread for your daily Elysian breakfast. Get the metabolism ticking with breads, pastries, yoghurts, cereals, cured meats, fish, cheeses and an array of hot cooked options.

Chalet housekeeping AM & PM

Start and finish each day in a clean, comfortable environment. Elysian Collection provides a 7-star experience which includes twice-daily housekeeping throughout the entire chalet. Inside bedrooms your staff will tidy your belongings, fold your clothes, make your bed, clean and polish your bathroom, and ensure that every inch of your personal space is kept spotless. During the evening we’ll also turndown your bed covers, draw your blinds and leave a gift to keep you feeling spoiled every single day.

Complete changeover of linen & towels

Attention to detail is important to Elysian Collection, so during your twice-daily housekeeping any towels or linen that needs changing will be attended to. However, half way through your stay we also provide a complete towel and linen change to maintain a pristine living environment. Enjoy the addition of separate towelling in wellness, sauna and Jacuzzi areas to uphold hygienic practices at all times.

 

Discrete ski chalet service

We select experienced hospitality staff who are also put through an intensive butler training program at the beginning of every season. This means you receive the highest levels of personal service with upmost discretion. Chalet staff will be behind the scenes when not directly interacting with your group to help respect your privacy. From making cocktails, organising massages to preparing a beautifully laid table; your chalet staff are at the ready to answer your requests.

Personal shopping

Our guests think of our chalets as their home away from home. As such, there may be particular foods, drinks, or other goods they like to have available. Elysian Collection has developed a large supplier network and can try to organise any specific items you would like to have available during your stay. If you would like an authentic Swiss experience or something a little different, ask chalet staff about locally themed food, beverages and activities.

Exclusive luxury bathroom products

Elysian Collection has partnered with Jo Malone to provide our guests with the most luxuriously scented bathroom products. Pamper yourself in your bath or shower with Jo Malone’s superior range of shampoos, soaps and lotions. Relax your muscles in the bath with Aromatherapy Associates’ bath oils tailored to ease your body and your senses after a long day on the slopes.

Summer and winter equipment preparation

Upon arrival your chalet staff will take you for any equipment fittings required from our partner suppliers around town. Our suppliers guarantee newly serviced and top quality gear from hiking tools, mountain bikes, skis, snowboards, snow shoes, and more. Each morning your staff will prepare equipment outside the chalet; and each afternoon they will stow all equipment back inside the chalet. Enjoy the luxury of leaving everything at the door and making the most of your time to unwind.

Daily snacks and seasonal essentials

The experience is not like every other luxury ski chalet Switzerland has to offer. We make sure you’re prepared in all kinds of conditions. Weather can change quickly from hot or sunny to cold or snowy, so stock up with essentials like the sunscreens and hand warmers provided for you on your way out the door. For those moments when a little boost of energy is needed, we also provide a homemade snack bag with items containing natural sugars, proteins and carbohydrates to help you get through the day.
