A modern alpine retreat framed by the Swiss Alps 

Tucked away in Adelboden, The Brecon captures the spirit of the Swiss Alps without slipping into cliché. From the outside it recalls the archetype of an Alpine lodge, but step inside and the transformation is immediate: the interiors, reimagined by Amsterdam studio Nicemakers, mix mid-century lines and modern design pieces with the natural warmth you’d expect from a mountain retreat.

With just twenty-two rooms, the atmosphere feels intimate and unhurried, like a private club that doesn’t need to announce itself. Here, the all-inclusive philosophy adds a rare sense of ease — meals and drinks appear when you want them, in the open-kitchen restaurant or curled up in one of the cosy lounges, where fires crackle and windows frame the peaks.
