Hamilton Lodge & Spa

Way up high in the green foothills of the Swiss Alps above the village of Belalp, Hamilton Lodge and Spa sits surrounded by grand mountain ranges and lush meadows. Inspired by the stories of Heidi, an iconic character in Swiss literature, this cosy retreat which is gorgeous beneath summer sunshine or a blanket of winter snow.

The main lodge has 19 unique rooms, ranging from snug two to four people bedrooms to family rooms with connecting door that can sleep up to six.

Designed as a welcoming log cabin, the restaurant is made from stone and wood. The menu is made up of both local and international cuisine, making use of organic products and striving to always make healthy offerings to its guests.

The spa is equipped with Finnish sauna and bio sauna, using herbs from the alpine meadow. A plunge bath, hot tub and whirlpool are situated outdoors – in winter in snow, in summer amidst the alpine flowers.

In winter, Belalp is a lesser know but wonderful ski area, while in the summer the majestic Aletsch glacier is close by and the lodge is a starting point for hikes to faraway peaks or to the a cheese making farm.
