Charming, cozy and indulgent

The "Waldhaus" focuses on hospitality, personal service and an informal but elegant atmosphere. At the heart of it: the gourmet menu with regional classics and seasonal surprises – lovingly prepared and often with a creative twist by the chef. The wine list is highly decorated and the grappa selection legendary: Over 70 exquisite varieties are waiting to be discovered. If you prefer things even more rustic, you can make yourself comfortable in the "Waldhaus" barbecue hut. And for the crowning glory? An excursion in the hotel’s own Morgan Roadster – you’d be hard pushed to conquer the mountains in more style.

What do the guests order, what does the chef love?

When the chef de cuisine has the choice, he opts for the beef "stroganoff" – a classic of the house that has been creating a buzz beyond the canton’s borders for ages. However, when it comes to popularity among guests, another dish is still a slither ahead: the Chateaubriand with Béarnaise sauce. Carved traditionally at the table, it even receives applause when being served. Maybe that’s where it gets its leading edge? Our tip: Try both! For example, during a long weekend at the "Waldhaus".
