Bürgenstock Resort Lake Lucerne
Glorious views of Lake Luzern, the mountains, and hilly meadows crown the structurally spectacular Bürgenstock Resort, which appears to balance above the lake. The resort comprises a luxury contemporary hotel, as well as a five-star medical wellness hotel, and some rooms are located in an elegant 1904 structure from the original resort. There are 12 restaurants and bars scattered around the 148 acres, offering everything from traditional Swiss to Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines, some with a sprinkling of Gault-Millau points. Its sprawling spa—a temple-like 10,000-square-meter space—includes a heated infinity pool overlooking the lake and mountains. The historic chalet-style Taverne 1879 has an additional 12 rooms at half the price of those in the main resort. Activities like mountain biking, tennis, curling, and golf ensure that sporty guests can stay active, and the numerous lounge chairs provide ample opportunities to relax.
