Read on - our family saga


Our legendary "VIK parties", for our "very important kids", take place between Christmas and New Year.

The disco parties are for youngsters only – no parents allowed – and always inject a healthy dose of oomph into our venerable establishment.
Equally popular is the winter wonderland in the Salle Baccarat – you could call it our VIK lounge, where the youngsters can be among themselves.
Plenty of exciting experiences also await in our Palace garden, including encounters with the visiting St. Bernhard dogs and pony rides. It's a dream come true for every little prince and princess.
And for those with a sweet tooth there are special baking sessions. Juniors get to make their own cinnamon stars and vanilla moons under the guidance of head chef Franz W. Faeh.

Our Kids' Club
- play safe
It's child's play: Young hotel guests from 5 to 12 years can join in the fun and games with their peers at our Kids' Club. The program changes weekly and is also suitable for 3 to 5-year-olds accompanied by an adult. Please note that some activities, especially those involving sports, are only for children aged 5 and over.
Worldwide Kids proudly partners with Gstaad Palace ensuring that families enjoy exceptional and secure holiday moments in paradise. The world’s leading provider of family and childcare services in the luxury hospitality sector, awards the Seal of Young Guest Excellence to properties that meet stringent childcare health and safety standards and demonstrate an unwavering commitment to creating family-friendly, imaginative environments.


Dive in with both feet: Children in the spa
Everyone is welcome to our spa - including our youngest guests as of 3 years old. Our indoor pool is open for the whole family every day from 8.30 am – 8.00 pm. Our Jacuzzi is open to children every day from 9.30 am – 5.00 pm.
The Palace Spa is a place to unwind and enjoy some quiet time. As a result, we respectfully request that you avoid bringing laptops or mobile phones. Strollers are not permitted at the Palace Spa to ensure that everyone can walk around freely.
Children under 14 years should be always accompanied by an adult.

Saaniland - for explorers of all ages
The little white goat Saani is Saanenland’s mascot. She takes our youngest guests to her favourite spots: to playgrounds, sandpits and cable cars in summer, and to toboggan runs, swimming pools, ski school and much more in winter.
