Gender in Switzerland: “Royal Savoy Lausanne” and “Schweizerhof” in Bern

Die Schweiz has become a journey. Ob am Geneva See also located in the Bernese Altstadt, our Columnist is from these two Houses of the “Bürgenstock Collection” in detail

Spectacular mountain panorama, crystal clear views, rich cultural traditions and exquisite luxury shopping: no one is surprised, why Switzerland itself is so much bigger. There are no more ‘Expats’ with King Victoria, Tina Turner or Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel. Auch mache mal wieder Station im Nachbarland, clean, and black in two additional hotels: in “Royal Savoy” in Lausanne and the “Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa” in Bern. Both Häuser are affiliated with the Bürgenstock Collection, with the Luxushotel “Bürgenstock” in Lucerne and “The Adria” in London, and are still – über die Katara Hospitality Switzerland AG – in the Besitz der Königsfamilie von Katar. If you did last time, you can take a test trip.

Lausanne is one of the most exciting places I have ever seen. The city, in the International Olympic Committee during the Sitz-hat, will be magnificent at Lake Geneva and the view of the pompous advance of the “Royal Savoy Lausanne” is a first high point of the Aufenthaltes. In the autumn of 1909 the often turbulent connection of the betagten Haupthauses died, and new constructions in the framework of the surrounding restoration for the new year have been lost.

From summer cocktails and winter würstchen

From the thought-out “SkyLounge” of the hotels with 196 rooms and suites I enjoy the view over the sea. These fantastic days are played 365 days a year, soft drinks in the summer of a cocktail with sunshine during the see and city right during and in the winter, in one of the bright Alpine huts, you can roast your own sausage. All to Swiss Sitte. Try the “Fluffy Cauliflower Fritters”.

When you spend the day that the house nachlegen: a coffee machine for self-service and a buffet to set, you will find ich gewöhnungsbedürftig. For the Fleischliebhaber in a kopfsalat a with Nüssen angereichertes Tatar very original present. Many people have a better fish, so it is an exciting event with a blutorange in the postcard – an interesting arrangement.

In Bern there is a bus and train at Haus

I travel further to Bern. Hotel „Schweizerhof Bern & Spa“ is located in a very best Lage. Here it is not that the Bundesstadt works miraculously and man ist quickly in Lausanne, so that others can also shop in Schweiz. The historical history of the 165s has houses miraculously in a feeling of trust, from “Man erwartet mich”, and both will only be strengthened by the heartfelt Recommendation and the Reception. I can assume that the name and the room are used, where the fresh Blumen – their teuer in der Schweiz – and the Love for Details these hotels are not available. The Original parquet is one of the most popular renovations in the form of a lightning-sharp tile in the other areas. So a first final rush must fall out, I finde.

Neben de regular Columnen „Rath checks ein“ veröffentlicht Capital zammen met de Hotelexperten en Herausgeber der „101 Besten“, Carsten K. Rathden Sammelband “The 101 best hotels: Switzerland, Austria, South Tyrol and Germany 2024”. The book costs Euro 59.90 and can be ordered here.

Johanna Schmude set off with a colleague from university, Johanna Schmude, who lived at the “Grand Elysée” in Hamburg, and who works at “Schweizerhof” as Marketing & Communications Manager. I live in the house and see the 21 conference room on the Belle Etage with an insulated 800 quadratmeters for meetings and receptions.

If you are a hotel guest who takes over the costs of the Berner Hotels, it is often used. During the leisurely run I think: What for a sympathetic, historically grown city. Back in the “Schweizerhof” had a massage with Paula, a Spaniard in Galizien, which opens in the Spa. With my research into a grand way of dealing with another house of the “Bürgenstock Collection” underlying medical data, a horror is based on that basis. It is a personal service.

Meisterwerke from the kitchen – from Texas to Tokyo

Since 2011 Andreas Haseloh is head chef for the two restaurants of the responsible houses. Next to “Jack’s Brasserie” with the most modern French cuisine is the pop-up kingdom “Kyōyū” and the modern Japanese cuisine with “Sky Terrace” from the late American combination. The name also means “parts”, and on that basis the colorful selection of the suggested dishes and light main courses.

Wolfgang Schmidt, the kitchen chef in “Jack’s Brasserie”, is a Superstar and more men gain an individual Wünsche experience. The beef 48 Stunden long cooked Spareribs dared the best außerhalb of Texas sein. Auch Marcus Cembranos, the Food & Beverage Manager, served the Abend with. For me, a power of the “Schweizerhof” is: Leadership and operative Führung represent an Einheit. Zudem remembers the diversity of the combined teams and family-run Alpine hotels.

Conclusion: Both luxury hotels, the Hotel “Royal Savoy” in Lausanne and the Hotel “Schweizerhof & Spa” in Bern, have a natural length of the “101 best hotels in the region Germany, Austria, Switzerland and South Tyrol”. That has happened more or less, since 2025, in the new ranking of “101 best hotels in Switzerland”. In both cases, Fall is one of both an uninterested Empfehlung.
