Gstaad Palace Hotel

We had a wonderful and perfect stay in this one of its kind Palace Hotel! In particular, we loved the ‚ Le Grand Hall’ and the cosy rooms! In addition, all staff members were very friendly and professional and we very much appreciated the room upgrade and the Champagne! Therefore, we highly recommend this Hotel to any potential and future guests!

This is without a doubt the greatest hotel in the world. The hotel itself is unbelievable - rooms and facilities are renovated basically every off-season, the spa is spectacular, and the restaurants are gorgeous. I have only had world-class meals from breakfast all the way to dinner. What really makes the palace stand out, though, is the staff - they are the most attentive, caring and kind hotel staff I have ever encountered and go out of their way at every opportunity to go above and beyond for each guest. Nothing compares to this hotel - speaking as someone who has traveled the world staying in high end hotels, this has redefined what a luxury hotel can be.

Unbelievable service. There were so many staff and every single one knew our names even though we only stayed 2 nights. The food was great (albeit very expensive), the spa unbelievable and the bar was lovely. Shame about the weather - it rained both days.

We walked from the promenade uphill and ate lunch at the palace bar lobby. The view was very good and food exceptionally well made. The staff is courteous. The palace is grand and has many restaurants and a boutique shop for skii merchandise.

We have been unusually fortunate to now be on our second stay at this unparalleled hotel. The standards in Switzerland are already quite high. That this hotel is in Gstaad - indeed, in some ways it's the face of Gstaad - elevate the standards even higher. But among the excellent hotels in this picture perfect town, the Palace is the top of the top. We have been told by multiple staff members "we would do anything for our guests" and "once you've been a guest here you'll always be one in our eyes". And they mean it. The hotel itself is Swiss perfection, down to every last detail, but it is the staff who define the word hospitality in their professionalism and attitude and who provide the magic. Many/most of these staff work exceedingly hard, certainly those in housekeeping, at the front deck, at the concierge desk, and most of all, in the restaurants. They can be here from early morning till late at night. But despite this hard work they consistently excel in being gracious and positive - perhaps at least partly out of pride, knowing that within the world of hotel hospitality, the "product" they are putting out is as good as anyplace on the planet. Among these staffers, special mention to Ervin and Francesco, who treated us to a memorably wonderful dinner tonight and are warm, fun (!) and supremely professional people who personify the culture of this most special hotel. And of course, Valentine, the front desk manager, who exudes excellence in herself and her superb staff. Thank you to Gstaad Palace for being that place that gives one comfort that this level of excellence in hospitality really does still exist.
