Hotel information
A luxurious ski retreat reimagined for the modern explorer, Grand Hotel Belvedere blends timeless glamour with indulgent wellness and sweeping alpine views in the heart of the Bernese Alps.
Perched high above the car-free village of Wengen, this tranquil Swiss sanctuary is steeped in heritage. Originally opened in the early 1900s, the Grand Hotel Belvedere has been exquisitely restored, pairing its Art Nouveau soul with a fresh, contemporary alpine aesthetic. Its 90 rooms and suites are elegantly understated, featuring cosy interiors and panoramic vistas across the Lauterbrunnen Valley.
Whether you're seeking a romantic escape, a solo wellness retreat, or a memorable family adventure, the hotel offers a serene base for exploring the Jungfrau region. At the heart of the experience is a minimalist, onsen-inspired spa - complete with saunas, Turkish baths, and indoor-outdoor pools - complemented by daily Yoga, Pilates, and outdoor meditation sessions to reset mind and body.
Adventurous souls can enjoy glacier treks, e-biking, snowshoeing, heli-tours, and paragliding, while those craving calm will love forest bathing, alpine picnics, and wild swimming. Seasonal activities ensure every stay offers fresh ways to connect with nature, culture, and exhilaration.
Dining is a refined affair: Brasserie Belvedere and Restaurant Waldrand each put a sophisticated spin on classic Swiss and French cuisine. From skiing lessons with the Swiss Ski School to scenic journeys to Jungfraujoch or simply soaking in the mountain stillness, every detail is designed to evoke comfort, calm, and quiet indulgence for your ski holiday.

Activities & Entertainment
Whether you're seeking adrenaline-fuelled mountain adventures or moments of mindful stillness, Grand Hotel Belvedere offers a thoughtfully curated collection of activities for every kind of guest.
Ski
There’s no shortage of inspiring activities at the Grand Hotel Belvedere, each one thoughtfully curated to suit the pace and passions of every guest. Begin with a guided ski tour across the pristine slopes of the Jungfrau region, where panoramic views and powder-soft snow promise an unforgettable alpine adventure. For those newer to the sport, private ski lessons with expert instructors offer a gentler way to gain confidence on the mountain.
Outdoor activities
Prefer a slower rhythm? Join a snowshoe hike through the tranquil forests surrounding Wengen, or embark on a scenic winter walk to the picturesque village of Mürren. These experiences are designed to immerse you in the serene beauty of the Bernese Alps, all while breathing in the crisp mountain air. Depending on the season, guests can also enjoy alpine picnics, guided nature walks, or wild swimming in the nearby mountain lakes during the warmer months. In spring and summer, e-bike tours and glacier treks offer an invigorating way to experience the dramatic landscapes of the region.
Culture
For a cultural twist, hop aboard the iconic cogwheel train to Jungfraujoch – the "Top of Europe" – and marvel at the otherworldly vistas from Europe’s highest railway station. History buffs can explore the charming streets of Lauterbrunnen or discover the traditional wooden chalets and local crafts in the alpine villages nearby.
Wellness and entertainment
Back at the hotel, wellness seekers can unwind with daily yoga and meditation sessions, or relax in the minimalist onsen-style spa complete with saunas, steam rooms, and heated pools. In the evening, cosy up with a glass of wine beside the fire, or enjoy live piano music in the lounge, the perfect way to end a day filled with alpine elegance and enriching experiences.
