The 6 best Resorts in Swiss Alps, Switzerland

April 27, 2023 Natalie Tallman

A magnet for skiers and hikers, these dramatic peaks – including the iconic Matterhorn – range from 3,000 to 15,000 feet and spread across three-fifths of the country. Abundant glaciers, scenic valleys and gorgeous alpine lakes add to the region's visual appeal. The Glacier Express train travels the 7.5-hour route through the Swiss Alps from Zermatt to St. Moritz, passing through fairy-tale villages and over 291 bridges along the way.

A nice hotel with a modern touch

I've booked 2 rooms for 4 nights at this hotel from 29 May - 2 June 22 without reading any review from any platforms. I chose this hotel based on its location [ about 350m away from the train station ] and price. I didn't regret my decision. The hotel is super cosy , the furnitures are modern and new plus I get to see the Matterhorn from my balcony [ Room 005 - 1st Floor]. The room is also spacious and I can see the heated pool from my balcony. There are many shops selling food, souveniers and other stuff within walking distance from the hotel. A halal fast food store [ Take It Doner ] is located 1km away and the meals tasted really good. My only complaint is - the pillows are too soft. Other than that, the staff were super nice and friendly. Breakfast was sumptous and tasty. I will definitely recommend this hotel to all my relatives and friends.

Luxury stay in Lugano

Reviewed By krispyk16

We spent a night at the hotel and were lucky to have enjoyed all the amenities they offered. The bus shuttle to Lugano cbd was a great service. The spa offered several choices such as sauna, Turkish hammam, steamy bath, jacuzzi or indoor pool. The outdoor pool area is just stunning and we loved soaking up the sun in front of the serene lake. Staff were exceptionally professional and helpful. Our room on the 4th floor had a fantastic view of the lake. Definitely a wonderful place to kick back and relax.

Great stay close to train station

Reviewed By tangerine211

Stayed here with my aunt. Breakfast was included in the rate. Small balcony with a sitting area for the smokers in your party. Supermarket next door to the property, which is ideal. We had a car that we were able to park in their car park, no additional charge for this. Only down side the car park is small and we got the last space. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Make sure to book a table if you want to eat in the restaurant. As they get busy,they can only take so many tables as they are short staffed as everywhere is nowadays. Food was very good. The Inn is opposite the train station so easy to get onto the train to Zermatt.

Winter holiday

Reviewed By 751ferdiv

We had a very nice stay at the Randolins family resort. The location on the Suvretta hill outside Sankt Moritz is beautiful and the views from the resort are breathtaking. The staff at Randolins is very friendly and the breakfast and dinner are excellent. The daily little newspaper with the weather forecast, the things to do and the menu for the day is very nice. Ski slopes are easily reachable on ski’s from the hotel when the 300 mtr road is snow covered. A very enjoyable holiday and i can only recommend this nice, quiet and peaceful place.

Thermalhotels and Walliser Alpentherme & Spa

The Thermal Hotels & Walliser Alpentherme Leukerbad is centrally located in Leukerbad which is known as the largest thermal area of the Swiss Alps. On a height of 1.411 meters surrounded by the Valais Alps it combines tradition and modern lifestyle. The Thermal Hotels & Walliser Alpentherme consists of 3 buildings: the Grand Bain, the Maison Blanche (built 1625) and Hotel de France (built 1845) which is located directly next to the main building. All buildings possess a long and interesting history.

It invites you with its warm atmosphere to enjoy the evening with traditional meals from Valais or international creations from our chef. The Bar Grand Bain is the ideal place to end your day either in front of the chimney with live piano music during the winter season or on our terrace with an amazing view on the alps during summer season. We offer numerous services as for example free Wifi at our hotel lobby and free luggage and parking service by our porter.

False publicity and scam. Max 2 stars hotel desperately needing some restoration.

Reviewed By Valery B

The hotel is scamming clients with false publicity. All their spa pics are of the Alpentherme, and they are very careful to make you think that that's what you're getting with the terible room you book for a price double the competition. Then you discover what they "mean" is their own local spa, not the fancy one you see on all the pics, the old and crappy one :) it's actually the same enterprise managing both, so the scam is genuinely intentional. The hotel itself is a max 2 stars experience. The breakfast was nice, the personnel very friendly. The rooms are very old and dirty, the bedding horrible, the walls paper-thin. Don't get this hotel. Put your money in any other place :)
