The MUST

Gstaad Palace – Lobby Bar and GreenGo

The Palace is the heartbeat of Gstaad. Start your evening in the Lobby Bar, where a pianist plays softly, champagne sparkles in your glass, and conversation flows easily. It's elegant without trying too hard. Generations have gathered here, and you'll understand why within minutes.

Then there's GreenGo. Step inside and you're transported to another era. Green lacquer, gold accents, mirrors everywhere. It's a disco that feels like a dream from the seventies. This is where Gstaad lets loose. Dance until late, surrounded by people who know this is the only place in town where reserve gives way to pure fun.

The Alpina Lounge and Bar

Come here when you want to truly unwind. Everything about The Alpina whispers luxury. Velvet chairs you sink into, cocktails mixed with precision, lighting that makes everyone look their best. The atmosphere is so calm, so perfectly designed, you'll want to stay for hours. This is après ski for people who appreciate the finer things.

Zuma Gstaad – The New Star

This winter, Gstaad gets even more exciting. Zuma is opening at Ultima Gstaad, bringing world class Japanese cuisine to the Alps. Watch chefs work the robata grill while snow falls outside. It's sophisticated, unexpected, and absolutely worth booking ahead. Everyone will want a table here.

The Mansard Rooftop

High above the village at Gstaad Palace, The Mansard offers something rare in this mountain town. A rooftop experience where Alpine air meets cosmopolitan energy. The views sweep across snow covered peaks while you sip cocktails that could hold their own in any major city. It's Gstaad's answer to the question: can a Swiss village do glamorous nightlife? The answer is yes, especially up here.

On the Mountain

WHY KNOT? Bar in Saanenmöser

Ski right to the door and join the happy crowd gathering as daylight fades. Music plays, people laugh, and the Bernese Alps create a stunning backdrop. It's unpretentious and joyful, exactly what you want after a perfect day on the slopes.

Eggli Terrace

Golden hour was invented for places like this. Order prosecco, find a spot on the sun drenched terrace, and watch the mountains glow copper and gold. Sometimes the simplest moments are the most memorable.

The Surprise

Ultima Gstaad Bar

Before heading upstairs to Zuma, spend time in this intimate bar. Dark marble, touches of gold, a fireplace that crackles quietly. The cocktails are exceptional, the atmosphere hushed and elegant. Perfect for conversations you want to remember.

Après ski in Gstaad isn't about checking boxes or following a scene. It's about finding your own rhythm in this beautiful village, whether that means dancing at GreenGo or sipping wine in a mountain hut. Choose what speaks to you. Every option is extraordinary.
