Lake Lucerne & Bürgenstock · Swiss Alps
A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because the Bürgenstock is the one Swiss address where the mountain and the lake are the same view — the water five hundred meters below the terrace, the Alps beyond it — and the nine-year rebuild kept the grandeur of the old spa resort while giving it the suites, the spa and the restaurants of a modern one.
- On the Bürgenstock ridge above Lake Lucerne, reached by car, boat and funicular; independent house.
- The Alpine Spa with an indoor pool and two outdoor pools; lake-facing suites; the resort's restaurants and terraces; the funicular from the lake.
- A spa region since the nineteenth century, host to Audrey Hepburn and Indira Gandhi; more than a hundred suites, every one facing the lake.
- Three MICHELIN Keys in the 2025 selection; holds five-star standing.
