Private Selection Hotels & Tours
We are delighted to introduce a very special partner of FEINE PRIVATHOTELS: Private Selection Hotels & Tours. Based in Switzerland, this hotel association brings together a carefully curated collection of mostly family-run four- and five-star properties in Switzerland and across Europe. These hotels stand for genuine hospitality, individual charm, and authentic travel experiences. Under the quality label “Private Selection Hotels”, around 50 independent boutique and luxury hotels are united — properties that consciously choose not to blend into the anonymous logic of large hotel chains, but instead preserve their unique character while guaranteeing consistent standards in service, atmosphere, and culinary excellence. All member hotels are distinguished by outstanding gourmet experiences with a strong focus on regionality and seasonality.

What defines the brand is the combination of excellence and personal connection: hosts are often present on site themselves, know their properties and regions down to the smallest detail, and create the warm, personal accessibility that many travelers are once again seeking today. Rather than relying on loud effects, the focus is on subtle, tangible quality — in the attention to detail, in carefully curated interiors, in contemporary and responsible management, and in the small gestures that turn a stay into a lasting experience. This philosophy is continued through the brand’s own concierge and service center, which acts as a central point of contact: curating travel experiences, checking availability, handling bookings, and offering advice beyond the booking itself — personally, competently, and with a strong commitment to reliability.

A distinctive strength of our cooperation partner lies in its expertise in curated tours. Beyond classic hotel stays, Private Selection Hotels & Tours designs bespoke “hotel-to-hotel” journeys that bring a region’s nature, culture, and culinary highlights to life — from hiking and e-biking experiences to panoramic train routes, cultural and castle trails, or gourmet-focused short breaks. Guests receive detailed travel documents and recommendations, benefit from insider tips, and can flexibly combine individual modules. The result is a travel experience that clearly stands apart from standardized package tours and gently opens up the diversity of Europe in an authentic and thoughtful way. This approach — the interplay of nature and cultural experiences with time spent at the hotel — is the promise made to guests and, as an “experience guarantee,” forms a core element of the philosophy of Private Selection Hotels & Tours.

In its philosophy, the cooperation sees itself as a network of “real places, real people, real experiences,” aiming to restore emotional depth to travel. Authenticity, sustainability, and selective growth play a central role in this approach: properties are carefully selected, regularly reviewed, and at the same time remain independent in their character, preserving their local roots and individual signature.
