Le Grand Bellevue

Explore the secrets of Gstaad from this retreat

Step into a world of easy-going elegance in the Swiss Alps at Le Grand Bellevue. Set in private parkland on Promenade Gstaad, the hotel has all the perks of a central location alongside the luxurious serenity of a discreet retreat.

The 57 elegant rooms, of which nine are suites, offer panoramic views across the mountains and parklands, as well as light-flooded bathrooms. Stay in stylish, secluded hideaways, turreted tower room or cosy chalet-style suites with rustic wooden beams. Inspired furnishings include playful wallpapers, intricate fabrics and the longest George Smith Chesterfield sofa ever commissioned. Most rooms also feature a private balcony.

Dining options include restaurant Leonard’s, where you’ll be taken on a gastronomic journey by their Gault&Millau awarded chef. For a more intimate experience, dine at the tree-flanked Le Petit Chalet to indulge on traditional Swiss cuisine such as truffle fondue, goat cheese fondue and raclette. At the end of the day you can recline back against the smooth leather sofas in the The Bar with a refreshing drink as vintage melodies tinkle out into the air.

If you wish to relax further then make your way to Le Grand Spa, which hosts 17 different wellness zones across its 3,000 square metres of space. Soothe your body and soul with steam baths and deep tissue massages, or sweat it out in one of the many saunas. The spa also features an invigorating ice fountain along with a private outdoor pool that will allow you to tip your head back and watch the stars as they glimmer in the evening sky.

The property also has various facilities to keep you entertained during your stay, such as a cinema, tennis courts and a private garden of lush greenery and ancient trees that makes for a great backdrop for an afternoon picnic.
