Our Story

Built in 1989 on the site of the old Hotel Neueret, Le Grand Chalet has stayed a family affair — Pedro Ferreira in the cellar, Stève Willié in the kitchen — eleven hundred metres above sea level, a kilometre from the Gstaad train and a short walk from the village centre.

Following the 2007 change of ownership, Pedro Ferreira and Stève Willié took over as director and chef de cuisine, combining decades of hospitality and culinary experience. In 2021 La Bagatelle was carefully renovated, restoring its original alpine woodwork under new light. Positioned above the pedestrian centre of Gstaad, the chalet looks out over the Saanenland — a base for walkers, skiers and golfers through every season.
