The Alpina Gstaad redefines alpine chic in the heart of the Swiss Alps

The Alpina Gstaad emerges from the mist, a beacon of refined seclusion amid the Swiss Alps' timeless grandeur. Here, where crisp mountain air mingles with the faint chime of distant cowbells, winter unfolds as a symphony of serenity and sophistication, inviting the elite to surrender to its elegant embrace.

A Legacy of Alpine Innovation

‍

Nestled on five acres in the exclusive enclave of Oberbort, The Alpina Gstaad opened in 2012 as the first luxury hotel built in Gstaad in over a century, redefining Alpine chic with its seamless blend of tradition and modernity. Owned by Jean Claude Mimran and Marcel Bach, it transformed the site of the former Grand Hotel Alpina into a cosmopolitan icon, overcoming local opposition to embody mindful luxury.
