Three Michelin Keys

Also in Forbes Travel Guide, Condé Nast Traveler, Wallpaper* and AFAR.
Grand Resort Bad Ragaz’s wellness program goes well beyond the baths, incorporating every element of modern spa culture, from beauty treatments to medical consultations.
“Grand Resort Bad Ragaz has been welcoming guests since 1869. (Less than three miles away lies the ancient thermal spring of Tamina Gorge.)”
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Nestled in the Rhine Valley foothills, walking paths lead to the dramatic cliffs of Tamina Gorge and nearby Bündner Herrschaft vineyards.
The rooms
Spa Suites feature thermal spring taps and private saunas, while historic Quellenhof quarters balance walnut parquet with freestanding marble soaking tubs.
The thermal pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Neoclassical pillars line the 19th-century Helena Bath, and Tamina Therme opens beneath twelve-meter timber arches.
The spa and gym
Beyond private treatment suites and Pilates reformers, an outdoor pool steams against the backdrop of Alpine peaks.
At the table
Dining spans six Michelin stars across three restaurants, alongside traditional pine-panelled fondue parlours and cocktail bars.
Comprised of four interconnected hotels, the resort offers guests two thermal spas, saunas, steam rooms, and hammams, as well as its signature NEWYOU Method.
How it began
Hunters discovered the natural thermal spring in the rugged Tamina Gorge in 1242, establishing a centuries-old Swiss bathing cure tradition.
“The white-painted columns create a richly atmospheric interior, almost Moorish in its intricacy, and a perfect backdrop for relaxation.”
