Grand Resort Bad Ragaz

Before the rise of the luxury ski resort, the classic Swiss escape was a “bathing cure” at one of the country’s spring-fed mountain towns. Bad Ragaz is one of these, and the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz is proof that this tradition is alive and well, right down to the ornate bathing hall fed by a natural hot spring. The original structure dates back to 1868, and much of its antique grandeur remains; additions have been made over the years, however, and today its multiple buildings contain a multiplicity of room styles, from delicately classical to coolly contemporary and even some eye-catchingly modern designs. Disparate as they may be in their aesthetics, they’re uniformly built for indulgent comfort, as befits a hotel that’s made for restoration. Grand Resort Bad Ragaz’s wellness program goes well beyond the baths, incorporating every element of modern spa culture, from beauty treatments to medical consultations. Meanwhile the resort’s restaurants and bars combine for a handful of MICHELIN Stars.
