History & Story
Le Grand Bellevue re-launched in January 2014 after a year-long renovation by dynamic young owners, Daniel and Davia Koetser. In the heart of Gstaad village, the hotel was originally built in 1912 as a Cure House and Spa. Family-owned, managed and designed, the hotel comprises 57 bedrooms. Bold colours, eye-catching prints and elegant furniture make up the interiors. The hotel’s signature restaurant LEONARD’s offers exceptional cuisine by Executive Chef Francesco De Bartolomeis whilst the more inti¬mate Le Petit Chalet serves up a menu of hearty Swiss dishes. The Sushi Bar serves up the freshest sushi in the Alps, and Le Grand Catering offers a range of fine dining options. Other features include an art-deco bar and cocktail lounge, cigar lounge, private cinema and the Gstaad Yacht Club. Le Grand Bellevue is home to the 3,000 square metre Le Grand Spa featuring a Thermal Oasis, indoor swimming pool and outdoor relaxation pool, well-stocked fitness suite, comprehensive roster of complimentary fitness classes and expert in-house personal trainers and physiotherapists.
