Park Gstaad
Located just 5 minutes from the pedestrian center of Gstaad, this Five Star Chalet style hotel embodies the sophisticated yet relaxed style of this picturesque world-renowned mountain village. The Park Gstaad was the first luxury hotel built in Gstaad, and it has deliberately adopted a mindful approach to the use of local resources and stands out through its authentic and all-encompassing well-being concepts.
Grand Powers
Located in the heart of the Parisian Golden Triangle, yet safely tucked away on a quiet street, Hotel Grand Powers stands as the premiere Five Star Boutique hotel choice on the Right Bank. After a $20 million complete renovation, the design beautifully blends the modern traits of a contemporary hotel with the elegance of a traditional Haussmann style building.
