Iconic Alpine Retreat for Families

Gstaad Palace is perfectly placed for families who want refined comfort, outdoor adventure and trusted childcare in one of Switzerland’s most iconic mountain destinations. The hotel’s 90 individually styled rooms and suites offer alpine charm, beautiful views and flexible options for families, including spacious suites and the Tower Two Bedroom Suite.

Days can be shaped around the season – from swimming in the indoor pool, enjoying the outdoor «PISCINE» in summer and exploring the Palace garden, to ski school, tobogganing and winter wonderland activities in the colder months. Families can also enjoy curated experiences such as alpine herb walks, kayaking on Lake Arnensee and cheese tasting in the mountains, while dining ranges from relaxed poolside meals to Italian favourites, fondue at La Fromagerie and memorable moments at the Walig Hut, which can accommodate a family with two children overnight.
