Fourth time in a row: Switzerland’s Leading Boutique Hotel

On Monday, November 2, the winners of the 27th World Travel Awards Europe were announced. In the category "Switzerland's Leading" which listed 12 awards, THE OMNIA outperformed as in the previous three years its eight competitors as the "Switzerland’s Leading Boutique Hotel".

Alpine excellence – our new restaurant concept

With his philosophy of using fresh, seasonal products and his clever creations, Executive Chef Hauke Pohl has shifted the focus of gourmets and connoisseurs to THE OMNIA restaurant. Now, he ups the ante and shows that he is not only a master chef but a trend-conscious one at that: with a strong commitment to regional products and to sustainability, Pohl celebrates the taste of local alpine quality products. The ingenious twist? Inherently, all his creations harmonize with each other perfectly without fish or meat. However, should our guests prefer to complement their chosen dish accordingly, Pohl and his team will create a delicately balanced fish or meat dish specifically for them.

Our new food concept thus mirrors not only our philosophy of sensible enjoyment; moreover, the changing needs of our guests were taken into consideration as well: after all, mindfulness about our resources and awareness for their origins have become part of our value system.

Detailed Information

THE OMNIA is voted "best small 5-star hotel" by NZZ!

For the third time the "NZZ am Sonntag" publishes a rating of the best hotels in Switzerland. This time the focus was on small hotels: establishments with a maximum of 30 rooms. These hotels have to cope with the particularly tricky task of reconciling a wide range of offers with their limited space. The jury said: "Small hotels are particularly successful in accommodating the personal preferences of their guests.” 

Leading the category "Best 5-star hotel" is a wonderful honour that sweetens our early end of season. Needless to say, I particularly would like to thank my great team – this credit belongs to you!

Here and there – always yours. THE OMNIA now has its own perfume.

Our exclusively new designed fragrance evokes memories of moments and materials in THE OMNIA – of the soft lighting, of the flickering fire and countless books, combining warm, smoky notes with associations of cool metal and nighttime alpine air.

The olfactory concept comes from the New York creative studio Folie à Plusieurs, which uses fragrances as a means of deepening the emotional engagement with art and has already developed more than 40 contemporary fragrances in collaboration with artists, fashion designers and filmmakers. The famous perfumer Mark Buxton was commissioned with creating the actual fragrance. His daring and distinctive touch was discovered when he designed the first fragrance for Comme des Garçons. He has worked with almost all the major brands in the fashion world and has set new standards in niche perfumery since 2010.

The Matterhorn is and always has been the subject of photographs, illustrations, paintings and drawings in their thousands. Like no other mountain, this iconic peak casts its spell over those who behold it. And yet few images or depictions can truly do justice to this monument of rock and eternal ice.

A dialog between the cultures

THE OMNIA is the contemporary interpretation of the traditional mountain lodge. Here in the Swiss Alps, the mountain lodge, a quintessentially American concept, has been reinvented for its European environment by the New York based architect Ali Tayar (1959 – 2016). This dialogue between two cultures was the starting point for the design.
