Why Switzerland
Switzerland pairs dramatic alpine scenery with refined cities, pristine lakes and a reputation for quality that runs through almost every aspect of daily life. Snow-capped peaks, historic towns and elegant resorts create a destination where natural beauty and sophistication exist in perfect balance throughout the year.
While the mountains provide the country's most iconic backdrop, Switzerland offers far more than alpine landscapes alone. Cosmopolitan cities, vineyard-covered hillsides and lakeside communities bring their own distinct character, shaped by a blend of French, German and Italian influences that give each region a unique identity.
Journeys often move effortlessly between scenic rail routes, outdoor adventures and moments of quiet indulgence, whether beside a mountain lake or within a grand historic hotel. Across the country, luxury resorts, boutique retreats and elegant city stays provide memorable settings from which to experience one of Europe's most polished and rewarding destinations.

Lenkerhof Gourmet Spa Resort
Lenkerhof Gourmet Spa Resort, a luminous five-star retreat in Lenk near Gstaad, weaves the alpine charm of its Relais & Châteaux heritage with modern indulgence, nestled in the Simmental Valley's breathtaking embrace of snow-dusted peaks and verdant meadows. The hotel's 82 rooms and suites are sanctuaries of serene elegance, where warm wood accents, plush linens, and expansive windows frame sweeping views of the Bernese Alps or the valley's tranquil expanse. Each space offers air-conditioned comfort, sleek furnishings, and bathrooms adorned with luxurious toiletries, with complimentary non-alcoholic minibars adding a thoughtful touch. Select suites boast private balconies, inviting guests to savour the crisp mountain air and the quiet majesty of the surrounding peaks. Dining at Lenkerhof is a culinary odyssey across three distinct venues. Spettacolo, awarded 16 GaultMillau points, crafts gourmet masterpieces—think delicate alpine trout with herb infusions or velvety game dishes—served in a refined dining room aglow with modern elegance. Oh de Vie, with 15 GaultMillau points, channels the French-Italian Riviera with vibrant plates like seafood linguine or citrus-kissed risottos, savoured in a chic setting. Bühlberg, a rustic mountain restaurant, warms the soul with traditional Swiss fare—bubbling fondues and hearty roesti—enjoyed amid stunning views from the winter garden. The hotel's bar pours crisp regional wines and artisanal cocktails, perfect for lingering in the alpine glow. The 7sources Beauty & Spa is a sprawling haven of renewal, where indoor and outdoor pools shimmer beneath soaring skies, and a Finnish sauna, steam baths, and hot tubs melt away tension.
