At the Hotel Schweizerhof Bern & Spa, we strive to create unforgettable experiences for our guests while actively taking measures to minimize our environmental impact. Through sustainable practices and a conscious use of resources, we are committed to an environmentally friendly future. At the same time, we care about the well-being and development of our employees, as they are the key to our success.

With passion and commitment to global climate protection, we actively invest in internal resource and energy efficiency. One outstanding example of this is the care of up to 150'000 bees on the roof of our hotel. This measure not only helps to combat bee mortality, but also provides 85 kg of organically produced honey every year - which is used at breakfast and in our fascia massage in the spa. These sustainable practices reflect our commitment to excellence in hospitality and a positive contribution to the environment.

Since 2017, we have been cooperating with the myclimate foundation to make a joint contribution to climate protection. When booking or checking in, our guests have the option of deciding whether they would like to offset their CO2 emissions. By making a donation of CHF 4.00 per person per night, they can offset their entire stay, with the amount donated by guests being doubled by the hotel. Our primary goal is to reduce deforestation in Madagascar. We use the funds raised to purchase solar stoves, replant trees and promote environmental awareness among locals to encourage sustainable use of our resources.

From the day the first hotel in Bürgenstock Collection opened we had ambitious environmental designs. By 1888 we introduced a groundbreaking electric funicular and hydroelectric power to our 500-metre-high Bürgenstock mountainside. Our story began with two entrepreneurs from local villages, creating a legacy of community spirit, while Switzerland’s snow peaked Alps are a constant reminder of our responsibilities to the planet. Sustainability is a true pillar of the Bürgenstock Collection and our vision begins with our guests’ desire to travel well in this precious world.
