Säntis – das Hotel

Northeastern Switzerland


Säntis – das Hotel offers big mountain views from all angles, chic boutique-style rooms and a spa. The generously sized rooms play up the nouveau-Alpine-chic look, with pale wood floors, lots of light, clean lines and muted colours. And of course the icing on the cake is that you wake up to Säntis peeking through the window.
