Making hotel history!

The history of the Swiss hotel industry is unique. The historic hotels of Switzerland in particular are an impressive testament to this history.

But the conservation of these hotels is at risk. Economic pressure and a lack of succession solutions are causing these valuable buildings to become objects of speculation and to lose their originality through careless renovation.

Our association assists affected businesses by providing financial contributions for restoration, and it also works to ensure that the buildings do not lose their historic authenticity and architectural significance.

A historic hotel only truly lives up to its history when it opens up and becomes a place full of life and enjoyment.
