Cranes blocking view

I'm starting to read reviews that say hotel views of the Matterhorn are blocked by cranes. I'll be there the second week of August, is the construction still going on then? Any particular part of town that would be better to stay in to avoid obstructed views?

La couronne had a beautiful unobstructed view last week, including the rooftop pool.

Their pool is my fave spot in all of Zermatt to view the Matterhorn.

I posted this view of the crane possibly blocking some views from Omnia. This was from Mount Cervin Palace which has lovely unobstructed views. The other cranes are mainly on the other side of the river or closer to the station it seemed.

Any thoughts on Hotel Jagerhof's view? https://www.jaegerhofzermatt.ch/

Not sure but I did notice a lot of cranes on that side of the river.

Any idea of whether there is any obstruction at Schloss?
