Become part of the Gstaad Palace's story
The Gstaad Palace has enchanted guests from near and far for over a century. Not with spells or magic, but with authentic hospitality, genuine family spirit and a long tradition. Our hotel is one of the Leading Hotels of the World. Part of the Palace's charm is the beauty of the Saanenland region that constantly amazes our guests. The Gstaad Palace has been owned by the Scherz family for three generations. We invite you to join us and become part of our history in the making!
