Mandarin Oriental Palace, Luzern

Following a meticulous renovation, Lucerne’s iconic belle époque landmark has been re-opened as Mandarin Oriental Palace, Luzern. Enjoying a serene location on Lake Lucerne, a stone’s throw from the old town and with spectacular views over the Swiss Alps, the hotel, featuring the largest suites in the city, sets new benchmark for the finest Swiss hospitality. The new opening is also set to establish the hotel as an epicurean destination, with four restaurants and bars, overseen by Executive chef Gilad Peled – an award-winning luminary who's led multiple Michelin-starred restaurants during his celebrated career. The SPA Bellefontaine meanwhile will offer a state-of-the-art fitness center, soothing wellness area, and rituals inspired by the Far East. Four stylishly appointed event locations make it ideal for weddings, private parties and unforgettable social events.
