Four Seasons, leading luxury hospitality and branded
residential company, will operate The Park Gstaad Hotel in Switzerland once
the property reopens following extensive renovations, which are already
underway. Introducing The Park Gstaad as a Four Seasons experience represents a
perfect opportunity to contribute towards Gstaad's positioning as a world
renowned, picturesque alpine resort.
The
Park Gstaad is an iconic property in one of Europe's best known
mountain destinations, and became the first five-star hotel in Gstaad when its
doors opened in 1910. Owned by philanthropist, investor and sportswoman Dona
Bertarelli, the property is undergoing a full-scale refurbishment led by
Squircle Capital, with renowned interior designer Joseph Dirand. The property
is anticipated to reopen as The Park Gstaad, A Four Seasons Hotel in
time for the 2026-2027 winter season.
"Gstaad
has long been a favourite destination in Europe for luxury
travellers, and we are excited to have the unique opportunity to enter this
exclusive market with such an exceptional property," says Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development,
Portfolio Management and Residential, Four Seasons. "We look forward to
working with our partners to bring together the very best of this legendary
property with the service excellence of Four Seasons to create a world-class
luxury experience."
"We
have found the ideal partners for a property that has been part of my personal
journey in the region," says Dona Bertarelli. "As Gstaad's first
luxury hotel, The Park Gstaad holds a special place in the region's heritage,
and I am excited to unveil its transformation into a Four Seasons experience,
where its legacy meets modern elegance for residents and visitors to enjoy."
