Discovery of a little gem - majestically and impressively tower the summits of the Bluemlisalp behind the gardens and lawns of the Royal Park Hotel. Just about in the perimeter of the UNESCO protected Jungfrau-Aletsch area, Kandersteg welcomes its guests in the charming tradition of an un-spoilt Bernese alpine village surrounded by snow covered peaks, merely between Grindelwald and Gstaad. Only 50 min. by car from Bern (or 1¾ h from Zurich or Basel) Kandersteg is just as easily reached as many other resorts, yet convinces by its cosiness and authentic charm. The sunny platform, the unique nature reserve of the Gastern-valley with it many rare orchids, one of the alp’s most beautiful mountain lakes, the Oeschinen-lake closeby, or the mysteries of the Blausee are just some of many arguments that Kandersteg has to offer. In the heart of the village, one finds the Royal Park Hotel, belonging to the Rikli family since over 135 years; from the outside resembling the typical timber clad Chalet style, the hotel surprises from the inside with the tasteful and elegant interior of an aristocratic Bernese Country House from the 18th century. A lovely collection of genuine antiques, furniture and carpets enhances the special and refined atmosphere of the past times of Bern’s golden age, the Ancien Regime. The Hotels’ 24 bright and friendly rooms and Suites, too are set in the style of Louis XV and Louis XVI, the spacious restaurant offers an creative, fresh regionally inspired cuisine using lots of local and mountain ingredients. Outside, the terrace gives way to breathtaking views over the glaciers of the Altels and the Blümlisalp. The small cosy Alpenhof-Stuebli offers a wide array of Swiss specialties including Fondue and Raclette, which can just as well be enjoyed under mighty fine-trees in the middle of the gardens. The Hotel’s infrastructure offers its own tennis court, in- and outdoor pools, boats on the nearby lake of Thoune, own riding stables, a small Spa and a sheer uncounted number of hiking trails from very easy strolling to very challenging alpine climbing in summer and the whole range of winter sports in winter. The Royal Park Hotel is rated by the Swiss Hotel Association as five star plus and is Member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World – it is also one of the smallest luxury hotels in Switzerland.
