Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A family-run four-star at the foot of the Eggli lift, a short walk from the centre of Gstaad, with a restaurant and pizzeria, a private spa and apartments as well as rooms. It suits families and relaxed couples who want an easy base for walks and skiing. Dogs are part of the plan here, with a blanket, bowl and towel in the room and a welcome at breakfast and in the restaurant.
