I was surprised you didn't pick up on this earlier eggs (I think you have picked most of my other posts of or on this mountain - fairly sure you can tell it is a personal favorite..... )
Ok theoretically its not a hut, more a 'hotel'. Saying this there was not a soul about when I went past (in fact I didn't see anyone all day in the mountains)
Yep that's it - an odd little place perched just above Zermatt.
Well I hadn't intended to climb Platthorn but that was the way it turned out due to heavy snowfall the day before making the traverse to Mettelhorn a little sketchy (doing this solo in runners and crampons wasn't ideal!)
That's the one wfbw. After hiking up there from town I thought about exploring further, until I came to a sign saying you can't walk on those trails - bikes only.

Yes John. It was nice to get a good view of it on the flight out of Milan We had wandered around it over a few days before that, but not exactly a place for bushwalking...
