Join us on a trip that takes us up to the mountains of the Swiss Alps. Towering high above the picturesque village of Gstaad we find one of the world's most exclusive hotels that looks like a fairytale castle. But behind the walls of the Gstaad Palace, real stories are written every day. Are you ready to read ours before writing yours?
Experiencing the Gstaad Palace
After the check-in, we step right into the Lobby bar. Often called Gstaad's living room, it is a great place to come for tea, an aperitif or a nightcap. It is also here where the Cigar Lounge can be found. Large glass windows are not only facing the beautiful alpine landscape but also the Lobby Bar. Hence smokers don't get the sense of being separated from the other guests on the other side of the glass.
With the iconic Astronomia Tourbillon Black Gold by Jacob & Co. on our wrist, we are enjoying the breathtaking Alpine views and savoring a fine cigar. The perfect touch of elegance for this unforgettable moment.
At the Palace guests can choose form a large variety of room and suite categories. We stay in a wonderful corner suite with mountain view. Besides the bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a large living room invites to settle down and enjoy the view.
One thing that is extraordinary about the Gstaad Palace is the renovation intervals. During every off-season, millions are invested into refurbishing parts of the historic hotel. Recently, the pool area was updated and now invites guest to dive into a world built around a modern take on Belle Epoque design.
Bugatti Veyron Super Sport
The history of Gstaad as tourism destination and the Gstaad Palace as its most iconic hotel is closely tied to the railway. When a line was established between Montreux and Zweisimmen, a sizeable detour via the farming hamlet of Gstaad was constructed. A visionary village teacher then built Gstaad's very first luxury hotel, supported by investors from Lausanne. The Gstaad Palace opened its doors in 1913, and has withstood wind and weather ever since.
Today, most people use cars to get up and around Gstaad. But not just any cars. People in Gstaad make the global top 5 list for Bugatti ownership. For the proper Gstaad experience we head over to B.I. Collection to experience an unforgettable ride with one of the rarest and most precious car on the market: the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport!
With its impressive W16 engine and 1'200 horsepower, the Veyron Super Sport is a true masterpiece of engineering and automotive design. It is not just a supercar, it is a true work of art, combining sleek design with unparalleled performance and power. But we don't stop there.
