GRAND HOTEL PARK 5*
Gstaad
A few steps from Gstaad’s Promenade, the beating heart of the famous resort, the Grand Hotel Park is nestled in a south facing park, facing towards Mt Wispile and the Diablerets Glacier. A leading luxury hotel in the jet-set’s favorite resort distinguishes itself with a style that is contemporary, yet respectful of the region’s heritage. The atmosphere is entirely devoted to the wellbeing of its guests, to the enjoyment of the far-from-everyday in a totally unpretentious way.
The 84 rooms and 10 suites, spread over 7 floors, introduce guests to both a warm and friendly atmosphere and contemporary design. Most of the rooms have a balcony or terrace overlooking the forest or the mountains towards Mt Wispile and the Diablerets Glacier. They each provide about 40 m2 of space and are dominated by flannel, brushed wood sourced from local forests, wengé and leather, an intentional nod towards the typical chalet style and nature.
The Penthouse Suites are tucked into the eaves of the 19th century building, exquisitely furnished, with sustainable woods and wool products, cozy fireplaces in the master bedrooms, and fabulous views of the Bernese Alps. Some also include private mini spas with hammams and saunas.
SPA & WELLNESS: Set in elegant and minimalist surroundings, the Park Spa consists of a vast saltwater pool, heated to 32°C with Jacuzzi and relaxing areas, state-of-the art gym, saunas and Turkish baths - separate for men and women. In the park of the hotel, an outdoor pool is accessible in summer. 10 treatment rooms are available, offering a full menu of massage and beauty treatments using products from Aromatherapy Associates.
FOOD & DINING:
The Grand Restaurant: Chef Guiseppe Colella offers fine European cuisine with Mediterranean touches in a decor dressed in loden green, with a panoramic south facing terrace.
The Marco Polo restaurant invites you to discover the journey of the famous explorer through dishes from Italy to China and Thailand. A true change of scenery in the heart of the Bernese Alps (only in winter).
Chalet Waldhuus, the small cottage tucked away in the garden, offers an authentic mountain experience to enjoy specialties like Swiss fondue or raclette in a typical setting with cow bells, wood carvings and checkered linens (only in winter).

"Our family spent last Christmas in Zermatt on a bespoke Epic Europe ski trip. The special thought and care that they put into our holiday made it our best yet." - L.M.; CA USA
-
"A day of heliskiing in Italy culminated with a sunset run off the Breuil saddle of the Matterhorn - one of the most thrilling runs of my life - and we left our tracks in a place where they remained for a week afterward, reminding us of the best day of skiing in our life!" - WG, CT USA
-
"I would have to say that Verbier and Zermatt might be the best places I have ever ridden a mountain bike, and I couldn't imagine going without the help of Epic Europe's guides. It was a dream trip for sure." - B.S., PA USA
-
"Epic Europe's custom road biking trip that they put together for my buddy's bachelor party was great - the right combination of killer rides, great hotels, and outstanding restaurants. Great guides, and overall a perfect trip." - A.S., London UK
-
“The team at Epic Europe created the most incredible trip for us, where everything came together seamlessly, and we never had to think about what came next - it just magically happened as if it was meant to be. That takes real talent, and they make it look easy." - B.N., WY USA
-
"Epic Europe has coordinated several corporate events for us over the past 5 years, and I cannot imagine a more professional operation to handle all of the details. From a team-building event for 50 people in a 17th-century castle atop a mountain pass, to marketing conferences and catalog shoots, their knowledge of the best locations in the Alps is second-to-none, and they are as good as it gets at being creative." - E.P., Lugano CH
-
"I have done trips in the Alps and surrounding regions with Epic Europe for the past 4 years, and every one has been unique and surpassed the last. The experiences that they deliver due to their personal relationships are a window into the real life in these incredible locations, and they share these friendships with us." - K.B., CT USA
-
"Hiking in the Alps has always been on my bucket list, but I wasn't sure that a typical trip was my style. Epic Europe designed a custom route for our group, staying in the best little inns and hotels, and we felt like we had the trails to ourselves. I will come back again and again to explore new trails with their guides every year that I can!" - R.B., NY USA
