What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Rougemont's Romanesque church is a short walk away, and trains from the station square reach Gstaad in ten minutes.
The rooms
Solid fir paneling lines the bedrooms, and ten open onto private balconies looking out across the village or Mount Rübli.
At the table
Wood-paneled dining rooms serve regional dishes with Mediterranean accents, and an illuminated marble bar pours evening apéritifs.
How it began
The local Cottier family opened the inn in 1904, running it as a railway buffet and guesthouse for 110 years.
