The Alpina Gstaad

"The Alpina is an incredibly chic, modern, yet cozy hotel with lots to offer. If you are looking for a health kick, their spa has all the modern wellness technologies and treatments you could wish for. Their food is delicious too, with some amazing healthy and nutritious options." - Elise Taylor

"Situated on a hill a short walk from the too-pretty-to-be-real resort town of Gstaad, the Alpina Gstaad debuted in 2012 as the first luxury hotel to open there in a century." - Adam H. Graham

"The Alpina Gstaad in the Swiss Alps presents eco-conscious minibars with local goods like Swiss sodas, Länggasse tea, and Choba Choba chocolate-covered almonds, all sourced within 15 miles of the hotel." - Nora Zelevansky

"Opened in 2012, the Alpina is one of only two newly built, five-star hotels in Gstaaad in more than a century. Situated in a wealthy hilltop area in Oberbort, the hotel offers stellar views of the Bernese Alps (including the Spitzhorn and Oldenhorn) and the valley scenery of the Saanenland—as well as an impressive amount of discreet luxury. Built in traditional Swiss chalet style, the limestone-and wood-structure contains 56 rooms and suites that pair antique and artisan furnishings (wardrobes, tables, carved ceilings) with contemporary design pieces. All rooms have great views, though the higher the better; on the 5th and 6thfloors, you’ll find the jaw-dropping, duplex Panorama Suite, with separate dining and working areas, and a fireplace. Furthermore, throughout the hotel’s public spaces, guests can see art by famous artists like Barbara Kruger, Tracey Emin, and Bosco Sodi. The hotel facilities are some of the best in Switzerland,ranging from an authentically Cuban-style cigar loungeto multiple Michelin-starred restaurants. The hotel’s Six Senses spa spans a whopping 21,500 square feetand includes an 80-foot-long lap pool, while an immaculately landscaped garden, designed by French garden designer Jean Mus, brims with Alpine plants and corresponding fragrances in the summer."
