About this hotel
General information
Opened in December 2012, The Alpina Gstaad sits a ten-minute walk from the Gstaad Promenade, among mountains and a garden laid out by landscape designer Jean Mus. The boutique hotel blends contemporary European chic with the charm of the Bernese Oberland: interiors by well-known designers bring carved softwood panelling, antique furniture and stone fireplaces, and balconies look out to the Bernese Alps and the Diablerets glacier.
There are fine-dining restaurants, a stylish bar, a wine cellar of rare vintages and a cigar lounge. The Six Senses Spa is a particular point of pride, with indoor and outdoor pools, a hydrotherapy area and a salt room. The hotel also has a 14-seat cinema, a kids’ club, three meeting rooms and a 240 m² ballroom for 170 guests, the Lorenz Bach ski shop, a hair salon and a free shuttle to the lifts.

Its 12 treatment rooms include an oriental suite with herbal steam room, a hammam, an Ayurvedic room with steam, chromotherapy and flotation rooms, a women’s section and a couples’ room. Treatments combine Asian techniques with innovative technology, and there are classes in fitness, yoga, meditation, Pilates and aqua aerobics.
