Perched high in the mountains in the heart of Switzerland, located only a short distance from Lucerne, the Kempinski Palace Engelberg sits at the foot of the Titlis mountain. The historic Grand Hotel from 1904 combines the charm of the Belle Epoque era with the most modern luxury comfort for the discerning guests. Exceptionally comfortable, the 129 rooms and suites radiate contemporary Swiss flair and offer sweeping views of the beautiful alpine surroundings.

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Engelberg, just a couple of minutes walk from the train station, is the wonderful Kempinski Palace. This is a beautiful old hotel that has been tastefully modernised and upgraded. We went for one of the suites in the older part of the building and we weren't disappointed. The room was immaculate, the entrance section has some beautifully crafted wooden closet space. It has a powder room and main bathroom. The circular bedroom was just stunning. A huge very comfortable bed. A sitting area inside the room and a wrap-around balcony outside. The pool and sauna area is at the rear of the hotel on a higher floor. But this allows the pool stunning panoramic views of the mountains. There's also the usual hot tub spa as well as a wellness area for treatments. Breakfast is taken in the restaurant area, and the breakfast is full and expensive. Buffet and a la carte. We had some of the best pineapple we have ever had. The chef is Italian and apparently gets it imported from Austria. We also dined in the same area in the evening. It has some beautiful views out to the village. Then one of the nights we dined at the seasonal Ruinart Challet. Which is built just for the Christmas period. And here you can dine on different types of cheese fondue and champagne.

Fabulous hotel. Brilliant staff who couldn’t do enough for us. Just a perfect stay in an absolutely beautiful location. Town centre location but very close to walking trails and local restaurants & bars. Look forward to returning here at some point.

For my family, one of the best hotel experience since a long time . Kempinski is (for us) usually always good to fantastic. I can clearly recommend the Kempinski in Engelberg, one of the best in Switzerland. Go there and have great fun, great food and great sleep.
