Perched 1,649 meters above Zermatt, THE OMNIA
feels less like a hotel and more like a sculptural retreat
carved into the mountainside. Guests arrive through
a stone passage and ascend via a rock-carved elevator
into a lobby floating above the town—an introduction
to the property's "omnia" philosophy of harmony,
storytelling, and nature-driven design.
Designed by Ali Tayar, the lodge blends Valais
crasmanship with American modernism, using
granite, white oak, leather, and felt to create a warm,
minimalist aesthetic. Nearly every piece of furniture
is custom-made, reinforcing the hotel's belief that
everything returns to its origins.
Rooms—unnumbered and uniquely styled—feel like
private chalets, each with a balcony and many with
unobstructed Matterhorn views.
A sanctuary of precision and soul, THE OMNIA
reimagines the mountain lodge for the modern
aesthete and stands as one of Switzerland's most
celebrated boutique hotels.
THE OMNIA
Zerma, Switzerland
ere's a certain magic to Switzerland—crystalline
air, dramatic peaks, and a standard of luxury not
found anywhere else. THE OMNIA in Zermatt and
e Chedi Andermatt in the Urseren Valley each
interpret that magic through their own lens: one
contemporary and sculptural, the other serene and
East-meets-Alps. Together, they define the new era
of Swiss alpine indulgence.
