At Huus Gstaad, a porthole window from the dining room looks into the reception area, giving guests a glimpse of the part wood, part stone reception desk made from a boulder found in the nearby Saanen river.

Located on the site of the former Steigenberger Alpenhotel, the chalet-style property is nestled in the rolling hillside, set some 3,600 feet above sea level, overlooking the surrounding Bernese Oberland.

Glass pendants, a reference to ice, hang over a bright orange communal pouf that connects the living room area to the bar and restaurant.

Evoking the location near the mountains, a corridor features an arrow made from rope.

A plaid wall in La Vue restaurant is nod to traditional outdoor clothing, while large windows offer panoramic views of the Alps.

The living room features a curated bookshelf wall built from old oak and hot-rolled steal that surrounds a cozy fireplace.

Wool blankets on guestroom beds, expansive windows, tree trunk table bases, and leather cushions contribute to the hotel’s outdoor vibe.
