<h2><strong>Vacations in Switzerland</strong>&nbsp;</h2><p>&nbsp;How is it that this small European nation can feel like such a hidden gem, when it’s there in plain sight for all to see? Perhaps it’s because there’s something delightfully unspoiled about Switzerland–something in the clear waters of its lakes and rivers, the pure air, the beautiful backdrops of rolling hills and those snow-topped Alps never far away.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Maybe it’s the magic of its medieval towns and villages, or the way it can feel fantastically French, decidedly Germanic or innately Italian depending on where you go–and still have its own proud culture that feels distinct from these larger, but oh-so-close neighbors.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Whatever the reason, it means Switzerland feels like a discovery to new visitors, and keeps drawing those who have succumbed to its charms back again and again. Our <strong>luxury hotels in Switzerland</strong> showcase its best aspects.&nbsp;</p><h2>&nbsp;</h2><h2><strong>Luxury Hotels in Switzerland in picture postcard settings</strong>&nbsp;</h2><p>&nbsp;Lake-front hotels and mountain chalets; traditional wooden structures and more contemporary designs; cosmopolitan city-center hotels or in more rural settings, ideal for taking advantage of Alpine activities; country estates, that sit among vineyards; all with breathtaking views: <strong>Relais &amp; Châteaux in Switzerland</strong> offers all sorts of settings that each capture a different aspect to the country.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;We have <strong>luxury hotels in Switzerland</strong> in the French-speaking west, such as Geneva, Lausanne and Vevey, as well as charming Neuchatel and Alpine locations like Verbier; in the German-speaking Alpine central region, including St Moritz and Zermatt, its cosmopolitan center Zurich and over to the Austrian border in the east; and in the Italian-speaking south in Lugarno and Locarno. Each of our <strong>boutique hotels in Switzerland</strong> represents an authentic interpretation of the design heritage of these close geographic and cultural influences.&nbsp;</p><h2>&nbsp;</h2><h2><strong>The international flavors of our fine dining restaurants in Switzerland</strong>&nbsp;</h2><p>&nbsp;Those influences also extend to culinary heritage. Our <strong>gastronomic restaurants in Switzerland</strong> include Michelin-starred destination restaurants that epitomize classic and modern interpretations of French cookery and incorporate specific regional French and Alpine variations. Expect Germanic and Mediterranean influences alongside Swiss staples, all bringing to life a locavore list of fresh, organic and seasonal ingredients. Our <strong>fine dining restaurants in Switzerland</strong> exemplify both simple and accessible executions that celebrate flavor as well as jaw-dropping examples of culinary art–journeys for the senses that look almost too good to eat.&nbsp;</p><h2>&nbsp;</h2><h2><strong>All-season activities around our hotels in Switzerland</strong>&nbsp;</h2><p>&nbsp;Switzerland has a justifiable reputation for winter sports, with world-famous resorts and hundreds of miles of powdery runs. Many of our <strong>best hotels in Switzerland</strong> are on the slopes, close to them or with shuttle buses to ski lifts to get you there. Some of our <strong>luxury hotels in Switzerland</strong> even host early morning breakfasts for skiers atop mountains–they’ll take you up in tracked vehicles to 8,800 feet altitude to watch the sun rise before you descend on virgin snow.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;But Switzerland’s central European location also lends it something of a microclimate, so warmer months are also a draw, with long, surprisingly hot summers. That’s why you see so many people in the lakes and rivers in summer–waters that are otherwise glacial-cold at other times of year.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;So think of our <strong>boutique hotels in Switzerland</strong> not just for cozy winter breaks, skiing trips and Christmas markets, but all-season getaways in beautiful locations, ready for mountain biking, paragliding, and of course, hiking. Take gondolas and chair lifts up the mountains on what would normally be ski runs, then hike along ridges, through alpine meadows and past epic waterfalls–spectacular views in glorious sunshine.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Alternatively, enjoy cooking courses, wine tours, play golf or even learn how to build a Swiss watch. Experience life on a Swiss farm, go on boat cruises or even bar tours by boat in Zurich. Seek inner peace in our beautiful spas, breathing in the clean air and gazing over dreamy, tranquil vistas.&nbsp;</p><h2>&nbsp;</h2><h2><strong>Our Eco Hotels in Switzerland revere the great outdoors</strong>&nbsp;</h2><p>&nbsp;As well as a warm welcome, and personal, attentive service, <strong>vacations in Switzerland</strong> with Relais &amp; Châteaux give you a taste of the finer things in life–what we call <i>l’art de vivre</i> (the art of living). That’s also about celebrating the unique surroundings around each property for what they offer–from the seasonal produce we source or grow, to the role we play in our communities, the appreciation we have for local history, culture, food and drink, and the relationships we have with our suppliers– people who are often our neighbors.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;That all lends our hotels a more intimate, human dimension. And that attitude also sees us look after the nature that surrounds us–with hotels in nature, with beautiful grounds and often close to protected national parks. So our property owners, their staff, and our guests by extension all are dedicated to maintaining and protecting nature for future generations. Join us for this example of <strong>responsible travel in Switzerland</strong>.&nbsp;</p>
