Iconic address in the heart of one of Europe's most prestigious alpine resorts, the five-star The Park Gstaad will welcome guests back for the 2026-2027 winter season, under a brand new name: The Park Gstaad, A Four Seasons Hotel. Following the renovations, the property will boast 75 rooms and suites, including a collection of luxury penthouses, managed by Four Seasons and available for purchase.

The complete renovation, which preserves the historic Alpine environment with modern touches, will be overseen by Squircle Capital and French interior designer Joseph Dirant, also responsible for the interiors of the Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club. Bars, restaurants, a spa and fitness center with luxurious treatment rooms, as well as indoor and outdoor pools, will be featured. Meeting and event spaces, a tennis court, ski and bike services and children's facilities will complete the service offering for guests who come to enjoy Gstaad's exceptional setting in winter and summer alike.
