Victoria-Jungfrau Grand Hotel & Spa

The graceful and grandiose Hotel Victoria Jungfrau sits at the centre of Interlaken, overlooking the perennially snow-capped peak of Jungfrau and the surrounding mountains of the Bernese Oberland. Dating back over 150 years, this hotel is bedecked with chandeliers, dazzling gilded mirrors, stucco and trickling fountains, in homage to its Belle Époque roots.

224 elegant rooms and suites are spread across two vast wings. Rich fabrics, heavy drapes, antique furnishings and muted colours set the tone for most of the accommodation, unless you opt for the individually themed suites with their uniquely styled interiors. The vast Tower Suite with its private terrace offers sweeping views of the Bernese Highlands, whilst the Yash Chopra Suite exudes Bollywood glamour with a backdrop of the Jungfrau. For guests on a wellness journey, opt for a Bel Air Suite, offering direct access to the Spa.

At the heart of the hotel is the vast and pioneering Spa Nescens, where science fuses with luxury to create a holistic wellness experience. The very best Swiss anti-aging science has been combined with a myriad of body treatments, osteopathy, physiotherapy and cosmeceutical procedures to form their signature ‘Better-Aging’ programme, developed by Professor Jacques Proust.  Traditional fitness facilities are also on offer, alongside expert sports coaching and relaxing SENSAI treatments (more akin to traditional spa therapies) to provide the ultimate wellness journey in the heart of the Swiss Alps.

Alongside the spa and wellness therapies, Hotel Victoria Jungfrau is extolled for its fine dining establishments. Inspired by a Provençal orangery, La Terrace’s light and bright interior offers spectacular views of the perennially snow-capped Jungfrau whilst serving up a delicious French-Mediterranean inspired menu. For laid back Italian fare, including pizza, pasta and the finest grilled meats, head to Ristoranti Sapori, and indulge in an opulent breakfast spread at Jungfrau Brasserie. The hotel’s summer terraces are the perfect place to enjoy afternoon tea with a view, whilst the Victoria Bar boasts a wide selection of fine wines, champagnes and cutting-edge cocktails. For guests focussed on a wellness experience whilst at Hotel Victoria Jungfrau, the healthy menu at the Spa Bistro is the perfect complement to your wellness journey. 

The hotel’s position at the heart of the Bernese Oberland makes it perfectly placed to enjoy the mountain pursuits that Interlaken is so famous for. Allow the hotel’s concierge to arrange any manner of adventure activities, from hiking and mountain biking to paragliding and canyoning, before returning to the hotel to rest your weary muscles at the heart of the spa.
