MORE ABOUT LUXURY TRAVEL IN SWITZERLAND

The clocks run on time. There are three official languages. It plays host to some decidedly Neolithic archaeological sites – great houses of timber whose elevated floors were pummelled into the lake beds of Zurich and Constance. There is a large Hadron collider here, doing unspeakable things to molecules far beneath the earth. This is a tawdry introduction to what is, in fact, a jaw-dropping and effortlessly stylish holiday destination, where the hotels are bright and the food is spectacular. Probably thanks to Switzerland’s handy disposition between France, Italy, and Germany.

A SCENIC TOUR OF SWITZERLAND

A holiday to Switzerland is – by dint of the country’s effortless service and impeccable taste – already high on the luxury scale. To experience the best of the best, we recommend a private Switzerland tour, circling high – by train – across the Golden Pass to Montreux, where each carriage is decked out with belle epoque grandeur. When you arrive at the shores of Lake Geneva, and check in to the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace, you’ll feel as if time has slipped, gently, backwards to an altogether easier time. Sail to bright Vevey for an exclusive candlelit dinner on the shores.

HOTELS OF GRANDEUR AND GLAMOUR

It’s possible that there isn’t a bad hotel in Switzerland. If you want to test that theory, be our guests. However, we have the pulse on the country’s undeniable ‘big ticket’ luxury hotels, from the Grand Budapest Hotel-esque Fairmont Montreux to Zurich’s rustic, arty and effortlessly cool Widder Hotel. The Swiss know how to do a good hotel. And that’s putting it lightly.

A BREATHTAKING ALPINE HONEYMOON

Fondue – the most (or least) romantic of foods, depending on how you look at it. Switzerland makes for a sumptuous, glamorous honeymoon destination, for its sharp Alpine peaks, premium hotels, blisteringly attentive service, and wine cellars which will require a little sit down after viewing. The culinary fortitude of Italy meets the style of Germany and the viticulture of France. High up in the shimmering Alps, there’s only you to enjoy it.
