Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comThe Chenot Palace is a health and wellness resort: guests come here for a week following the method of Henri Chenot, with nutrition, exercise, treatments and plenty of calm by the lake. The minimum stay of seven nights fits that rhythm.
The village center of Weggis, with the boat landing and the cable car up the Rigi, lies on the same shore; in the other direction begins the Hertenstein peninsula.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
In Weggis you can book the view of Lake Lucerne on purpose.
Three of the nine categories at the Chenot Palace Weggis face the lake: the Classic Room at 29 to 32 square meters, a Deluxe Room at 40 to 49 and the Suite at 56 to 77.
Why it matters: you stay here for at least seven nights – for a whole week, the lake is the first thing you see in the morning. Secure the view through the category, and it is part of your booking.
Our advice: the Deluxe Room comes in both versions with the same floor area. Choose the lake-view version there – you get the lake with the same space.
Where to stay in Weggis: on the lakeshore in Hertenstein
For travelers, Weggis comes down to three directions.
The lakeshore is the place for the week itself: walks by the water, swimming in summer, calm in the evening. Our recommendation: the Chenot Palace Weggis, because you live right on the lake and your program takes place in the hotel.
The Rigi rises right behind the village. From Weggis the cable car glides up to Rigi Kaltbad, and from Vitznau the rack railway, the oldest mountain railway in Europe, has been running since 1871 up to Rigi Kulm at 1,797 meters. Our recommendation: go up on a clear morning, hike along the grassy ridges and take the train down the other side.
You reach Lucerne across the lake, with the Chapel Bridge and the old town on the banks of the Reuss. Our recommendation: the trip on one of the five historic paddle steamers that serve Lake Lucerne on scheduled routes.
For orientation: from Zurich airport a transfer brings you to the door, and from Weggis, Mount Pilatus, the Bürgenstock and the passes of central Switzerland are within reach.
Rooms and suites with a lake view: the best hotel in Weggis from the inside
The Chenot Palace Weggis offers nine categories, two of them suites, from 21 to 85 square meters.
To start with, there is the Nest at 21 to 26 square meters, the Superior Room at 22 to 37 and the Classic Room with lake view at 29 to 32. In the middle are two Deluxe Rooms at 40 to 49 square meters each, one of them with a lake view, plus the Executive Room at 48 to 56 and the Classic Room at 50 to 54.
The largest units are the two suites: the Suite at 68 to 85 square meters and the Suite with lake view at 56 to 77. So you have the lake in three sizes, from the Classic Room to the Suite.
If you need a certain size, tell us: our travel advisors confirm it with the hotel before you book.
What a week at the luxury hotel in Weggis costs
Your travel advisor will give you the current price for the Chenot Palace Weggis – for your dates, from seven nights and with the suitespot benefits.
These come with every stay: a hotel credit of 100 Swiss francs and fresh fruit every day.
When it is at its best: from May to September: the lake is warm enough for swimming, the paddle steamers are running, and the hiking trails on the Rigi are open.
In October and November fog often lies over the lake, and up on the Rigi you stand in the sun above a white sea with the Alps rising out of it. In winter there is snow on the Rigi for sledding and winter walks, and at the mineral baths in Rigi Kaltbad you swim with a view of the mountains. In spring the shore blossoms first, and Weggis is quiet and green.
And whatever the date: the suitespot benefits apply in January just as in July.
How long to stay: a week. You book the Chenot Palace from seven nights, and the suitespot benefits apply from the first day of your stay.
Points and membership: the hotel sits outside the points programs of the big hotel chains. In return, you receive the suitespot benefits without any membership.
