Hint

Intro

Ensemble of two striking hotels, a third is in the planning stage. Huus Bären is a traditional 400-year-old 3-star hotel that has been honoured with the Swiss Location Award. The 4-star Huus Löwen plays with historical elements and modern design. Gastronomy at its best: Appenzell specialities reinterpreted, summer terrace, wine cellar, cigar lounge. SPA area with historic tiled stove. Outdoor hot tub.

Description

The HUUS BÄREN is the origin of the APPENZELL HUUS Resort in Gonten and one of the most traditional inns in Switzerland. In the middle of the power region of Appenzellerland, the "Heemelige" 3-star superior hotel with a history dating back to 1602 offers a unique combination of tradition and modernity. After a comprehensive renovation, the HUUS BÄREN reopened its doors in summer 2020 with 12 single and double rooms, junior suites and suites in alpine Appenzeller chic. A special challenge, but also a great added value, was the installation of the sauna oasis and the day spa under the wooden roof.

A comfortable pleasure: the luxurious box spring beds with a hay drawer at the head end. This traditional detail makes you believe that hay is oozing out from behind the glass – country life at its best. Original is the ceiling height of 1.80 meters in some of the vintage rooms. Each room is individually designed, but no one has to do without a flat-screen TV and radio. Further proof of the attention to detail is the Appenzell mineral water and hiking backpack, which await travellers in their rooms.

In 2023, at the same time as the renovation of the 4-star superior HUUS LÖWEN and the new construction of the 5-star superior HUUS QUELL in the APPENZELLER HUUS, a number of things were embellished and renewed. Since then, the HUUS BÄREN has been in possession of a beautiful tavern in a new look, a generous breakfast buffet and a practical lift, which can now comfortably accompany guests to the 3rd floor.

Wedding

The two wedding venues, Huus Bären and Huus Löwen, can be found at the heart of the village of Gonten, in one of the most romantic areas of Switzerland. Something extraordinary has been created here in Appenzell Innerrhoden. With a wonderfully traditional yet modern architectural language, exclusive premises, culinary delights and 44 richly designed rooms and suites are united under one roof. In the new Huus Löwen, up to 60 guests can celebrate this most special of days for the happy couple. In fine weather, the hotel garden can be used for drinks and the reception.

Boutique & Design Hotels and Lodgings

The neat, Appenzell-style listed building has been one of the most magnificent structures in the region for over 400 years. The hotel with its 25 rooms and suites has been lovingly renovated in recent years. Enchanting wood elements, the finest timber floors and stylish fireplace stoves make up the cosy charm of this boutique hotel. Beneath the eaves, the inviting wellness area includes a Finnish sauna and steam bath, with a rooftop hot tub just outside – the perfect place to relax. The Bärenstobe restaurant is well-known to gourmets from far beyond Appenzell, and the hotel’s historic wine cellar offers an impressive range of the finest wines.

Meeting

New event spaces in Eastern Switzerland. With the Appenzeller Huus, a new MICE destination is being created in Gonten in the Appenzellerland. The Appenzeller Huus comprises two houses. The 3-star Huus Bären has
20 individually furnished rooms, junior suites and residences in
Appenzeller chic. Three restaurants and seminar rooms in a
modern design complete the offer. The team surprises its guests with their creative and regional cuisine. At the end of June 2023, the new 4-star Huus Löwen will open with 22 rooms and suites, a restaurant with garden terrace and the Löwensaal that seats up to 60 people.
