Le Grand Bellevue
Updated elegance in Gstaad
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

The only grand
palace hotel sitting on Gstaad's chalet-lined main street, Le Grande
Bellevue dates back to 1912 and helped turn the town into an alpha alpine ski
resort. But when the property underwent a year-long renovation and reopened in
2014, it suddenly emerged as something fresh and inspired.
Now popping
with bright colors and exuding an air of easy elegance (with an emphasis on
quirkiness), the refreshed luxury hotel is is ready for its next chapter. A
newer alpine crowd will be lured by Le Grand Bellevue's high notes of
playful humor and its fully stocked 21st-century list of amenities, including
everything from a monumental spa to an in-house cinema and club bar.
That doesn't
mean the grand dame’s past is buried, though. Traditionalists will still
appreciate haute touches like a Murano glass chandelier anchoring the central stairwell,
two grand Steinway pianos nudged into the bar and lounge, and the hotel's façade
colored a classic buttercup yellow, the shade of just-churned Swiss
butter.
