Gstaad Palace Hotel

A dream castle in the Swiss alps and an icon of old-world glamour. Gstaad Palace has a timeless elegance that’s hard to find today. I went for my birthday and the team had prepared some lovely personal gestures in our room. We were pleasantly surprised by how varied the dining options are. The new al fresco Italian restaurant, Gildo’s, is a wonderful new addition in Summer and worth visiting on its own. Service top notch. As much as the Palace is famous in winter, I actually love it even more in summer. Already looking forward to my next stay.

Haven’t returned to the Gstaad Palace since 2010, I can say with complete confidence that this legendary hotel has not only maintained its remarkable standards—it has continued to raise them. The Gstaad Palace it is an icon of timeless elegance and impeccable hospitality. Every member of the staff delivers service with genuine warmth, professionalism, and an attention to detail that makes every guest feel truly special. The rooms are beautifully designed. Waking up to the breathtaking panoramic view of the Swiss alps is a magical experience. Every restaurant reflects the same commitment to quality , creating memorable dining experiences in a friendly atmosphere. The Gstaad Palace offers everything desirable for a perfect stay with a cherishes memory. Quite simply, it is among the world's finest luxury hotels and a destination that continues to set the benchmark for excellence. WALTER JUESSEN BARBARA SUNGAIL SCOTTSDALE,ARIZONA

Fantastic stay, legendary service, Gstaad in summer is marvellous and very elegant

If you have ever wanted to feel like you are staying in a literal castle in the Swiss Alps, this is the place. Perched right on the hill overlooking Gstaad, the building itself is stunning and the mountain views from the balconies are unbelievable. It has that rare, historic, old-world glamour that you just can't replicate in a modern resort. The service here is where they earn their reputation. It’s family-owned, and you can tell the staff takes genuine pride in the place. From the free train station pickup to the lobby lounge team, everyone handles you with total warmth and absolute professionalism—you are treated like royalty whether you pull up in a rented sedan or a chauffeured Bentley. The spa is a massive highlight too; the indoor and outdoor pool setups are gorgeous, and spending time there after a long day out in the mountains was incredibly relaxing. The rooms are beautiful, classic, and genuinely cozy with excellent beds, though some of the updated designs lean a bit safe and beige compared to the grand, dramatic style of the common areas. So why a 4-star review instead of a perfect 5? The food and beverage pricing is where things get a bit eye-watering, even for Swiss luxury standards. The hotel uses a system where you get a mandatory resort credit for dining, but the menu prices are so heavily calibrated that the credit vanishes almost instantly. While restaurants like La Fromagerie have an incredible atmosphere, the actual value for what you pay on food and drink feels stretched. Also, a minor detail, but the evening dress code is enforced quite strictly in the main areas (jackets required for men in the evening)—which is fine if you like to dress up, but it can feel a bit rigid if you just want a casual, laid-back evening after a long day of travel. It is a legendary, bucket-list alpine experience with unmatched hospitality, but just keep a close eye on your dining tab and plan for the extra expenses.

Beautiful traditional swiss hotel with a lot of glam. The spa is amazing Also great breakfast
