Suite 19, Hotel Olden, Gstaad, Hotel Olden, Gstaad

A two-bedroom proposition above the promenade

Suite 19 occupies 60 m² at Hotel Olden, built around a configuration rare at this scale: two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a terrace that extends the living space outward. This is not a room stretched to accommodate extra guests. It is a suite designed from the outset for three people who want separation, not just square meters. Choosing Suite 19 over a standard double means choosing a layout where privacy is structural, not negotiated.

The space and flow

The 60 m² divide into two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, a configuration that lets two parties share the suite without sharing a sink. A seating area sits apart from the sleeping quarters, giving the suite a living room function distinct from its bedrooms. Soundproofing throughout means the separation is also acoustic: conversations in one bedroom do not travel to the other. Hardwood or parquet floors run through the suite, grounding the space in material consistent with the hotel's alpine character. Note that the upper floors here are accessible by stairs only, in keeping with the building's traditional structure.

Design and finishes

Each bathroom is fitted with both a bath and a shower, along with a bidet, bathrobe, slippers, and the full range of toiletries: shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower cap. Towels and linens are provided throughout, and a wardrobe or closet in each bedroom allows for proper unpacking rather than living out of a suitcase. A coffee machine and minibar sit within the suite itself, supporting the two bedroom, two bathroom logic: everything needed is contained within the unit, with no need to share common spaces with other guests on the floor.

The view and outdoors

Suite 19 opens onto a terrace with a landmark view, alongside a separate balcony and patio. Gstaad's promenade sits directly below the hotel's timber facade, and the suite's outdoor space is built for slow observation rather than passing glances. This is outdoor square footage that functions as a second living room during the day, not an afterthought bolted onto the window.

Who is this for?

You are traveling with your partner and a teenager who wants a door that closes: two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one shared terrace. You are a family taking a long winter stay in Gstaad and want a single, recognisable suite to return to each season, with ski storage and ski school steps from the hotel entrance. You are hosting a small gathering on the terrace before dinner, and need a seating area that does not double as anyone's bedroom.

La Suite's verdict

Suite 19 is the most logical choice at Hotel Olden for anyone traveling as three, or as two couples unwilling to compromise on bathroom access. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom split is rare at 60 m², and it changes how the suite is actually lived in day to day. The terrace, with its landmark view, is the detail that elevates the suite beyond its floorplan: a space built for lingering, not simply for photographs. In a hotel of only eight suites, each with its own identity, Suite 19 reads as the family and small-group answer among them.
