Choose from staying in cosmopolitan cities through to remote Alpine villages with awe-inspiring mountain views...

Switzerland offers a wide range of accommodation, from slick modern hotels through to more traditional chalet-style properties. 

In the cities the choice ranges from business-oriented to more tourist-style hotels at every price level - from eye-wateringly high to budget hostel-style beds for the night. While the top end hotels are pricey compared with many other cities in the world, standards are high and the level of hospitality is renowned. All of the big hotel brands are represented in the country, with properties in the major cities.

Outside of the cities, many hotels cater for both winter sports enthusiasts and people on walking holidays and other summer breaks. Many rooms are sold on a half-board basis, which can provide excellent value as eating out in Switzerland is often expensive.

To keep a lid on food costs, you can also find self-catering properties in some of the mountain resorts and villages. There are fully catered chalets for people wanting to be completely cosseted on their skiing holiday.
