Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Gstaad cost?
Budget hotel prices in Gstaad vary, but you can find a great deal from £240 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
When is the most affordable time to visit Gstaad?
The most affordable time to visit Gstaad is generally during the "shoulder seasons" – late spring (May to early June) and autumn (September to October). During these periods, the peak winter ski and summer hiking crowds have dispersed, leading to lower prices for accommodation and some activities.

For solo travellers, visiting in autumn offers a particularly serene and cost-effective experience. The stunning alpine scenery is still vibrant with changing colours, and the weather is often crisp and pleasant for walking or cycling without the summer heat. Many hotels offer attractive off-season rates, and you'll find fewer queues for cable cars or attractions.

Families might find late spring appealing, just before the main summer season kicks in. The snow has largely melted, revealing lush green pastures, and many hiking trails become accessible. While some higher-altitude facilities might still be opening up, the lower valley offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor exploration, and you can often secure better deals on self-catering chalets or apartments.
Is Gstaad a budget-friendly destination?
While Gstaad is generally considered a luxurious destination, travellers can absolutely experience its Alpine charm on a budget with some smart planning.

For accommodation, consider staying in nearby villages like Saanen or Schönried, which offer more affordable guesthouses and holiday flats while still providing easy access to Gstaad via the excellent local bus and train network. Solo travellers can also look for budget-friendly rooms in smaller, family-run establishments just a short distance from the main village.

Couples can save on food by opting for self-catering. Local supermarkets offer fresh produce and regional specialities, superb for preparing meals in your accommodation. Many hiking trails and natural attractions, such as the stunning Lake Lauenen, are free to explore, offering breathtaking scenery without an entrance fee.

What free activities should we do in Gstaad?

Many of these are open to the public and provide a quiet space for reflection. Additionally, the region often hosts local markets or small outdoor events, especially during warmer months, where you can browse and enjoy the ambiance without any pressure to spend.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Gstaad as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
