BARGAIN HUNTING!
The Park Hotel in Gstaad offers discerning buyers a rare opportunity to own a piece of its prestigious history. As the hotel prepares for a major renovation under the renowned Four Seasons brand, its many exquisite furnishings are available to the public—a chance to bring a touch of elegance into your home while contributing to sustainable practices.

After serving guests with unparalleled luxury, the Park Hotel, as we know it, has closed its doors. Dona Bertarelli still owns the property, and as the General Manager of the Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues in Geneva, confirmed to Hotel Inside the building will be completely remodelled. The renovation work is due to start as early as September this year. The new Four Seasons Gstaad is scheduled to open in May 2026 and will comprise 71 rooms, suites, and five residences.

Before the transformation begins, nearly all of the hotel's inventory is up for sale. It offers a unique blend of timeless pieces and quality craftsmanship. From plush leather armchairs and crystal chandeliers to fine dining tables and artisanal serving trolleys, every item tells a story of the hotel's rich heritage.

Even the iconic 1910 lift, with its ornate wooden cabin, is available, though its size makes it better suited for grander spaces. For those seeking more practical treasures, the sale includes everything from silver cutlery by Christofle to well-maintained hotel beds and fitness equipment—all in excellent condition thanks to the hotel's last renovation in 2010.

Whether you’re a seasoned collector or simply curious, this sale has something for everyone. And with prices ranging from affordable to exclusive, you can find a piece that fits your budget while knowing you're making an environmentally friendly choice by purchasing on auction.

With over 3,000 items available, most of these goods are expected to find new homes quickly. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of the Park Hotel's legacy.
The sale runs from Thursday to Tuesday, 5 to 10 September, from 9 am to 5 pm at Wispilenstrasse 29 in Gstaad (closed on Sundays). Parking is available in the Ober-Gstaad multi-storey car park at Lauenenstrasse 34.
