Bürgenstock Hotel & Alpine Spa

Lucerne, Switzerland

Bürgenstock Hotel & Alpine Spa

Sometimes, you need to go higher to better appreciate the world. From the summit of the Bürgenstock, 450 metres above Lake Lucerne, it seems at its gentlest, where the understated charms of mountain life can unfold. Take a dip in the outdoor infinity pool, ‘fly’ (on a funicular, but we can dream a little) from one to another of the four hotels that make up the complex, slip into the 10,000-square-metre spa, play tennis under the watchful eye of Martina Hingis, the hotel’s ambassador, or journey from dish to dish with flavours drawing on Asian, Swiss and hearty, meat-based cuisine. So many possibilities that shape a certain ideal of an Alpine holiday.
