The suite options begin with the 485-square-foot junior suite and extend to the lavish Hans Badrutt Suite, a 1,885-square-foot haven that includes a marble entrance hall and a wood-paneled library. Beds are adorned with a delightful touch – old-fashioned hot water bottles dressed in cheeky covers that playfully suggest, "If nobody keeps you warm tonight, let it be me." Luxurious marble bathrooms, complete with black granite countertops, rain showers, and soft terrycloth robes, add a further touch of indulgence to the accommodations. The three-story Tower Penthouse Suite, which has been open to guests for two years, is located directly in the hotel`s famous tower and is considered one of the most exclusive suites in the Alps.
