10 Of The Best Alpine Foodie Hotels
Here are 10 Must-Visit Hotels for Foodie Travelers in the Alps. From Austria's Bregenzerwald to the Haute-Cuisine in France's Savoie.
Ansitz Steinbock
Ansitz Steinbock is a castle-like building in the midst of a rural idyll dating back to the 15th century. Offering twelve contemporary suites and two exceptional restaurants, the Ansitz Steinbock is located in picturesque Villandro in the very heart of South Tyrol. A perfect base to explore some of the best wineries, architecture and natural beauty of the surrounding area.
Berghotel Ladinia
Sister to the iconic La Perla, the Ladinia is the quintessential mountain inn and Corvara’s first. Opened in 1930 in one of the oldest properties in this Dolomiti village, it still has the same beautiful views of Mount Sassongher and traditional interiors that hold centuries of stories in its beautifully aged walls.
Chesa Grischuna
Synonymous with the glamorous Swiss ski resort of Klosters, Chesa Grischuna is a simple but charming hotel that has remained true to its roots since it was opened by Hans Guler in 1938. A feat of Landi design and craftsmanship, it became a place of refuge for American GIs during the Second World War, as well as film stars, directors, and writers— earning it the name “Hollywood on the Rocks.” Greta Garbo, Gene Kelly, and Rex Harrison have all signed the guestbook in this historic house.
Hotel Hirschen Schwarzenberg
The Hirschen in Schwarzenberg is a very special place full of character, art, music, 26 individual rooms, and a dining experience second to none.
La Perla
Surrounded by a ring of mountains known as the Sella Massif, La Perla is a jewel in the crown of Alta Badia, a unesco-rated region of the Italian Dolomites. Tucked away in the picturesque village of Corvara, this family-run hotel has been renowned for its exceptional service and for being a slice of la dolce vita in the mountains since it opened in the fifties.
LeCrans
Perched above the resort of Crans-Montana, LeCrans is notable for its swoon-worthy views of the Valais region’s extraordinary peaks. It is a grown-up place to switch off and enjoy one’s splendid isolation, cosseted by the tranquil alpine forest that borders the hotel.
Les Fermes de Marie
Up a quiet lane from Megève village, you will find Les Fermes de Marie, a clutch of centuries-old mountain farmhouses with rustic-luxe interiors. High up in the French Alps, this fashionable ski resort was put on the map back in the early 1900s by the Rothschild family, and this five-star hotel is one of its institutions.
Schgaguler
Located in the UNESCO World heritage site of the Dolomites, the boutique Schgaguler hotel is the centrepiece of town in Castelrotto (Katelruth), one of the five villages that make up the Alpe di Siusi (Seiser Alm), Europe’s largest mountain plateau. After extensive renovations, Tobias and his family reopened in 2020.
Valrose
In the early 1900s, a new railway line and miniature train station opened up the Gstaad Valley to mountain tourism, signalling the start of Le Valrose’s story. The storied hotel rests at the base of the Rubli mountain in the Vaud Alps, with the Sarine River gliding by and flanked by arcadian pastures, in the charming village of Rougemont. Since it opened in 1904, Le Valrose has been a stalwart of village life, with local families meeting around the fire or on its sunny terrace.
Gasthaus Traube
A 14-room design hotel in the heart of Buchs in the St. Gallen Rhine Valley, Gasthaus Traube is a modern urban alpine retreat offering a sophisticated base for exploring Switzerland and Liechtenstein. As a new member of 84 Rooms, it stands out for its serene atmosphere, refined style, and a deep commitment to regional discovery, offering a curated experience far beyond a simple stay.
