A story about wishes, ideas and realizations
Since as early as 1975 we have been running Hemizeus, which is located in the beautiful hamlet of Tuftra. We love this house and hope to welcome you in our hotel for many more years.
The most common question from our guests is; what does hemiceus actually mean. Every building in Zermatt needs a name, the hotel consists of three houses with the names Hera Mira Zeus. This gave rise to the abbreviation; Hemizeus.
