We spent a couple of nights at Huus Hotel to escape the foggy valley and enjoy some much‑needed sunshine, and overall it was a lovely stay. The atmosphere is very “alpine chic,” with a warm, stylish lobby that flows right into the bar—the social heart of the property. In the evenings there was a DJ, and although some reviews mentioned the music being too loud, we found the volume perfectly reasonable, especially considering the bar shares the same space as reception.
We enjoyed the Sushi .. great presentation and the Itamae was located such as to add to the bar atmosphere .
Our room was quiet and comfortable, with a beautiful view of the mountains. The hotel grounds were also a pleasant surprise, offering nice walking paths that were perfect for our two small dogs. Breakfast was another highlight: a fantastic buffet where nothing felt overlooked.
Where the experience fell slightly short for us was in the consistency of the service. For a hotel aiming at a five‑star feel, staff attentiveness is everything. We consider ourselves low‑maintenance guests, but on a couple of occasions when we had simple questions, the front desk attendant seemed a bit “put out” by the interruption. It wasn’t enough to overshadow the stay, but it was noticeable.
One practical note for future guests: the hotel shuttle is only for arrival and departure to the train station. It’s not a general shuttle service, so plan on taxis if you want to visit the Gstaad promenade—an area full of great shops, food, and energy, but not within walking distance from the hotel.
Overall, Huus Hotel offers a stylish alpine escape with great views, excellent breakfast, and a vibrant lobby atmosphere. With a bit more consistency in guest‑focused service, it could easily reach the next level.
