From hotel rankings to individual accolades, our team garnered recognition for its outstanding service, refined savoir-faire, and exceptional gastronomic experiences. Our commitment to distinction was celebrated with a series of prestigious awards, solidifying The Alpina Gstaad’s status as one of Switzerland’s premier hospitality destinations. Falstaff named us the Best Hotel in Switzerland, commending our seamless blend of elegance and impeccable guest service. Adding to this honour, Die 101 Besten Hotels awarded us Best Hideaway Hotel, praising the tranquil, discreet atmosphere that makes The Alpina Gstaad a preferred escape for those seeking privacy and luxury. Ranked sixth in Karl Wild's “Holiday Hotels Ranking”, The Alpina Gstaad stood out for its superior guest experience and leisure offerings, underscoring the hotel’s dedication to providing a world-class stay.
Our General Manager, Nadine Friedli, was recognised as the Rising Star of the Year by the Karl Wild Hotel Rating, marking her as one of Swiss hospitality’s most promising leaders, thanks to her visionary leadership and dedication to unparalleled quality. Culinary mastery also took centre stage, with Megu, our renowned Japanese restaurant, earning 16 points from Gault&Millau for its precision and refined dining offering.
Crowning a remarkable year, we ranked 3rd in Best Holiday Hotels Switzerland by BILANZ and became the only hotel in Gstaad to receive Three Keys in the MICHELIN Guide 2024, joining an elite group of just nine Swiss hotels honoured for their exceptional standards.
We are deeply honoured to have received Three Keys in the MICHELIN Guide 2024, the highest recognition in its new hotel ranking. As these prestigious keys make their debut, The Alpina Gstaad is proud to be amongst the first to earn them, standing out in the guide's new selection of over 5,000 exceptional hotels across 120 countries. Similar to the stars awarded to restaurants, these keys are dedicated to hotels and reflect a rigorous evaluation process, conducted by experts who anonymously test each property. They are granted based on five key criteria: serving as a gateway to the destination, excellence in architecture and interior design, consistent quality in service and comfort, a distinctive personality that sets the hotel apart, and a seamless balance between the experience offered and the price paid. This accolade highlights The Alpina Gstaad's dedication to redefining refinement, from its thoughtful design that captures the essence of the region to its commitment to impeccable service and attention to detail. Being granted Three Keys is a testament to our consistent pursuit of excellence, continually setting new benchmarks in hospitality.

It is built upon a robust evaluation system, incorporating guest feedback from leading review platforms, accolades from esteemed publications like the MICHELIN Guide and Forbes, and expert assessments conducted by industry professionals. This comprehensive approach ensures a fair and transparent selection process that highlights exceptional properties. Receiving this prestigious nomination is a testament to The Alpina Gstaad’s commitment to creating unforgettable experiences for its guests, with a focus on bespoke service, distinctive design, and an authentic sense of place.
