Welcome to Book It!, our monthly look at a buzzy new hotel or resort we're excited about.

Welcome to a high-altitude sanctuary where wellness, luxury and sustainability meet in the heart of the Alps.

Want to be clued in on one of Europe’s hottest openings of 2025? Huus Quell in Gonten, Switzerland, is it.

Picture

Opening this month, it’s small-batch luxury at its finest; just 30 suites, all with exclusive access to the highly anticipated Quell Spa.

Highlights include a rooftop Endless Vitality Pool with panoramic alpine views, themed wellness zones inspired by nature and cutting-edge treatments including oxygen therapy, cryotherapy, infrared and biohacking.

Sustainability is part of the package, too. Constructed from moon-wood timber that locks away over 2,000 tons of CO₂ and powered by geothermal, solar and spring-water systems, Huus Quell is a rare carbon-storing, zero-energy retreat. Luxury that doesn’t cost the planet a thing? Yes, please.

The suites strike the perfect balance between alpine cozy and modern luxe. Expect picture-perfect views, plush beds and spa-level bathrooms, designed so you can drop your bags and instantly switch into vacation mode.

Just an hour from Zurich, this area is one of Switzerland’s best-kept secrets: rolling pastures, timber villages and old-school traditions that are essentially untouched. To put it simply, Huus Quell is the Alps’ ultimate wellness flex, where nature, luxury and next-level self-care collide. And yes, it totally lives up to the hype.
