At a glance
Set just moments from the center of Gstaad yet surrounded by private gardens and sweeping Alpine views, Le Grand Bellevue is one of Switzerland’s most iconic luxury mountain hotels. This turreted palace-style retreat offers an atmosphere that is exclusive yet deeply comforting, making it as appealing for romantic escapes as it is for family adventures.
Accommodation ranges from chic, light-filled rooms to expansive suites with panoramic views over Gstaad village and the surrounding peaks. Rustic wooden beams, chalet-inspired textures and lavish split-level layouts create spaces that feel both characterful and highly luxurious.
Dining is a true highlight. Under the guidance of a Gault&Millau-awarded chef, the hotel’s collection of restaurants and bars spans elegant international cuisine at LEONARD’s, art deco cocktails in The Bar, refined Afternoon Tea in The Lounge, handcrafted sushi and atmospheric Swiss fondue at the charming Le Petit Chalet.
At the heart of the hotel lies Le Grand Spa – an Alpine sanctuary spanning 3,000 square metres. With 17 wellness zones, indoor and outdoor pools, botanical treatments and serene relaxation areas, it’s a destination in its own right.
Add tennis courts, cinema, gardens, children’s playroom, boutique shopping and easy access to Gstaad’s winter and summer adventures, and Le Grand Bellevue becomes far more than a hotel. It’s a destination designed entirely around pleasure, wellbeing and authentic mountain living.

Accommodation
Deluxe Chic Rooms
Spacious, serene and impeccably styled, the Deluxe Chic Rooms offer an elevated mountain retreat designed for pure comfort. A soothing colour palette is subtly lifted with playful accents, while the generous bathroom – with both a deep soaking tub and separate rain shower – invites unhurried relaxation. Step onto your private balcony to take in views over the hotel’s manicured gardens and parkland, and settle into a space that feels luxurious, calm and completely your own.
Tower Suite
Set within the hotel’s charming turreted tower, the Tower Suite boasts sweeping panoramic views across the private gardens, Gstaad’s rooftops and up towards the distant glaciers. Light-filled and beautifully proportioned, the suite pairs a sophisticated bedroom with a stylish living area, creating a sense of calm space. For an added layer of exclusivity, the suite can be connected to a Chic Room, transforming it into a private alpine apartment, ideal for longer stays or those traveling with family or friends.
Suite Panorama
Set beneath striking century-old wooden beams, the Suite Panorama is a grand duplex retreat that is modern yet celebrates Swiss Alpine heritage. Upstairs, a private office offers a quiet space to retreat, while downstairs a generous living area invites slow mornings and relaxed evenings. A spacious dressing room sets the tone for glamorous nights in the hotel’s celebrated bars and restaurants. Floor-to-ceiling views stretch from Gstaad village all the way to Glacier 3000 – an ever-changing alpine panorama best enjoyed with a moment of stillness and a deep breath of fresh mountain air.
Suite Chalet
Designed as a private chalet-style hideaway, the Suite Chalet wraps you in modern comfort from the moment you arrive. Exposed wooden beams and floors create an authentic alpine atmosphere, while a grand open fireplace forms the heart of the suite – gently dividing the bedroom and dressing area from the inviting sitting and dining spaces. Curl up by the fire with a book or a drink from the complimentary minibar, then step out onto one of your private terraces to soak up panoramic views of the surrounding Alps. Cosy, characterful and quietly luxurious, this is mountain living at its most atmospheric.
Switzerland
Switzerland is expensive by any conceivable metric. It’s practically made of money. Switzerland famously maintained peace, stability and neutrality for much of its history. It’s probably enjoyed a longer stretch of unbroken harmony than any other country. They seem to have things figured out in Switzerland in a way no other country has come close to. What’s the point of waging wars and having political chaos?
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.
