Le Chalet Glacier

Unlike more radical renovations, the owners here chose to preserve the chalet’s traditional proportions and timber framework, gently updating it with subtle touches. The ceilings, beams, and exposed stone are a reminder that this home has carried its style through the centuries.

The result is an atmosphere where old and new come together in perfect harmony.

The décor was curated by the owner himself, who passionately sourced vintage Alpine furniture, modernist pieces, and antiques from Switzerland, Austria, and France. The result is a warm, elegant interior that avoids all the usual postcard clichés.

Comfort was just as carefully considered: a fully equipped open kitchen, spacious dining room, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a Sonos system. For winding down, there’s a bespoke sauna, a hot tub with mountain views, and even an ice bath for the thrill-seekers.

The scenery surrounding the chalet is nothing short of spectacular—snow-covered peaks, turquoise lakes in summer, and hiking trails that start right from the garden. Ski Glacier 3000 in winter, swim in Lake Arnensee in summer, or go for paragliding, canyoning, or a horseback ride. There’s always a new adventure waiting.

When it’s time to indulge, head to Roessli in Feutersoey for poached trout or enjoy a schnitzel on the terrace—just ten minutes from Gstaad. What makes this place special is that no two days ever taste the same. A morning on the slopes, an afternoon at the spa, an evening by the fire.
