Nestled within vast stretches of unspoiled nature and overlooking steel-blue waters, Bürgenstock Resort Lake Lucerne unfolds in an almost surreal landscape. Whether arriving by car, helicopter, or private jet, the options are endless. A particularly unique experience is the arrival by hybrid MS Bürgenstock Catamaran and the historical Bürgenstock Funicular, taking guests directly into the heart of the resort. At the summit, three hotels with a total of 360 rooms and suites await guests for an extraordinary stay.

Bürgenstock Hotel & Alpine Spa

Those who appreciate elegance and stunning panoramic views will find that the five-star superior Bürgenstock Hotel & Alpine Spa lives up to the highest expectations. The hotel presents two distinct styles. The Contemporary, with its 102 rooms, combines modern, daring design with the epitome of luxury hospitality. The Heritage offers 109 rooms set behind a Belle Époque façade and was originally established in 1903 as the resort’s Palace Hotel.

Waldhotel by Bürgenstock

The 137-room Waldhotel by Bürgenstock exemplifies sustainable architecture, combining traditional larch wood construction with a deep connection to nature. All rooms feature south-facing sun terraces with stunning views of the Swiss landscape, while the pool deck is refreshed by crisp mountain air.

Taverne 1879

The charming three-star Taverne 1879, with 12 cosy chalet-style rooms is the ideal retreat to recharge and foster creative ideas.

Seventeen Bürgenstock Residence Suites with full hotel service complete the exclusive offering.

All accommodations are united by a shared commitment to exceptional hospitality. Every guest should find exactly what they need to feel completely at ease. This principle was established by the resort’s founders, Franz Josef Bucher and Josef Durrer, who laid the foundations of one of Switzerland’s most prestigious hotels.

With a focus on impeccable service, Bürgenstock Resort Lake Lucerne provides an exclusive setting for business events, conferences, and conventions of any size, delivered by experienced teams and tailored to individual requirements. The resort offers spacious meeting facilities designed for up to 600 people. The state-of-the-art conference centre offers a total of 2,200 m² and is equipped with the latest technology. Split into 31 meeting rooms and a grand ballroom, the venue can cater from small private celebrations to large-scale international events.

Culinary Diversity

A variety of restaurants, bars, and lounges present culinary highlights and refined dining experiences with international flair — from Pan-Asian, Persian, and flame-grilled specialties, to traditional Swiss and Italian dishes. Every guest will discover flavours to suit their tastes, and every event will find its perfect setting.

Spices Kitchen & Terrace is within a glass cube cantilevered from the side of the mountain. Parisa – Persian Cuisine is on the edge of the cliff with scaling views falling away 500 metres below. Osteria Alpina sits prettily above the rolling golf fairways. Oak Grill & Pool Patio is set by the Hollywood Pool.

Each restaurant, hotel, and event space can be booked individually or in combination with other venues and facilities, allowing guests and event planners to create a fully customised experience.

A Connection with Nature

Beyond accommodations and dining, the resort offers extensive leisure and wellness options. More than 70 km of scenic walking and biking trails along panoramic routes invite guests to recharge, reflect, and find inspiration in the surrounding Alpine landscape.. Just nearby, the Hammetschwand Lift stands out as truly one of a kind as the highest outdoor elevator in Europe. After hikes and bike tours, guests may enjoy well-earned relaxation within the resort’s exclusive spa facilities, which set new standards in both design and service. The 10,000 m² Bürgenstock Alpine Spa with five pools,15 treatment rooms, and three Private Spa Suites, provides a wide array of body and beauty treatments. Sauna areas, hammam, showers, whirlpools, Kneipp Pools, and a 24/7 fitness centre ensure a holistic wellness experience.

Those seeking a completely different way to unwind after a conference can enjoy a tennis match or training session in one of the two 850 m² tennis halls, the Bürgenstock Diamond Domes, which may also be transformed into event and conference venues for approximately 600 participants each.

In addition, numerous indoor and outdoor spaces are available for events, including the Bürgenstock Cinema with 69 seats, the chalet-style Spycher, and the historic Simmentaler Stube, built in the 16th century.

A Heritage of Hosting Excellence

Hosting conferences has a long tradition at the Bürgenstock Resort. A remarkable example was the Summit on Peace in Ukraine 2024, the largest diplomatic event in Swiss history, which brought together 57 heads of state, 92 delegations, and 2’000 staff, security personnel, and media representatives.

The resort offers a place that allows for both retreat and perspective. Its surroundings provide fresh impulses after intensive discussions. The unique combination of tranquility, nature, and unparalleled professionalism creates ideal conditions for sustainable decisions and successful collaborations. State-of-the-art technical infrastructure, flexible room concepts, and an experienced event and convention team ensure that every detail is perfectly curated. Personalised service, discretion, and the highest safety standards guarantee seamless execution.
