Spedition Thun

Bernese Oberland


A breath of fresh air to Thun’s hotel scene, the new Spedition has been designed with a razor-sharp eye for detail – for which it snapped up the Unesco Prix Versailles for Europe’s best hotel interior in 2017. The 15 rooms seamlessly fuse the character of a century-old listed building with rich, earthy colours, luxurious textures, vintage furnishings, clever lighting and ultra-modern bathrooms.

From the forest scenes on the stairwell to the restaurant with show kitchen, it’s clear that a lot of love and attention goes into making this place tick.
