# Cervo Sunday Brunch – the Mountain Boutique Resort way!

> Cervo Mountain Boutique Resort in Zermatt offers a praised Sunday brunch at its Puro Gourmet Restaurant, combining Alpine chic ambiance with views of the Matterhorn at CHF 49 per person, open to all guests and visitors alike.

## Destination
Cervo Mountain Boutique Resort, Riedweg 156, Zermatt, Switzerland — nestled at the edge of the forest with views of the Matterhorn.

## Getting there
Accessible by e-taxi in Zermatt; the Gornergrat railway connects to the village.

## When to go
Sunday brunch is a recurring offering; the hotel opened in December 2009 and operates year-round.

## Why visit
The Sunday brunch is described as an affordable entry point into the Cervo experience, with Alpine chic décor, attentive service, Matterhorn views, and standout food including an acclaimed Eggs Benedict, all for CHF 49 per person.

## What to see
- **Matterhorn views** — The restaurant and terrace offer direct sightlines to the Matterhorn.
- **Eight stone, wood, and glass chalets** — Each bears a discreet stag emblem; the architecture helped define the 'Alpine chic' concept.
- **Puro Gourmet Restaurant** — Rated 14 Gault Millau points, with a low wooden ceiling and warm hunting-cabin atmosphere seating up to 70.

## What to do
- **Sunday brunch at Puro** — À la carte spread including Bircher müesli, croissants, cheese, Eggs Benedict, spiced beef cubes, and extended desserts; CHF 49 per person, open to non-hotel guests.
- **Igloo Village overnight stay** — Zermatt Tourism offers an igloo experience near the Gornergrat at minus 20 degrees, combinable with a Zermatt brunch the following morning.

## Good to know
The brunch is open to all, not just hotel guests — making it a budget-friendly way to experience Cervo, as rooms are in the upper price range. The hotel is run by young hotelier Daniel F. Lauber, who launched the concept before age 30 in 2009.
