Luxury: also two Swiss hotels in the Top 100

For months, leading luxury travel specialists, writers and executives with canadian travel agency Flight Network examined accommodations based on everything from style to first-class services to the ability to embody local culture and provide access to remarkable environments, according to a news release.

So, after highly vetting a list of nearly 1,000 luxury and boutique hotels, resorts, lodges and inns, Flight Network officially unveiled their most definitive guide to date: the 100 Greatest Hotels in the World. 

Two Swiss hotels were named in the World’s 100 Greatest Hotels list: the Alpina Gstaad ranked third while the Beau-Rivage Palace in Lausanne ranked 24th. The Venice-based Gritti Palace is the best hotel in the world.
The Alpina Gstaad, opened in 2012, was also recently named the best hotel in Switzerland in the TripAdvisor Travellers Choice Awards 2017.

"At Flight Network, we pride ourselves on being a global travel agency, and our goal with this contest is to showcase the world's greatest hotels in a variety of categories: Luxury Hotels, Boutique Hotels, Luxury Resorts, Lodges and Inns," said Neil Bhapkar, Flight Network's Chief Marketing Officer, who oversaw the record-breaking contest. "It's important that our customers know about the most recent advancements in the hotel industry, as well as properties that have remained among the best in the world for decades. We sent our travel experts to each of the properties to get first-hand experiences that we are now sharing with our customers."
