The Brecon

The DNA

The Brecon, Adelboden
Where Retro Style Meets Swiss Alpine Cool


Mid-Century Magic in the Bernese Alps

Tucked high in the Bernese Alps, The Brecon isn’t your average mountain hotel. This adults-only hideaway in Adelboden is part vintage daydream, part modern alpine escape—where mid-century design meets the fresh air and slow pace of Swiss mountain life. Whether you’re coming for the snow, the scenery, or just the soothing vibe, this place delivers it all with quiet confidence and serious style.


Design That Warms the Soul

Originally built in the 1960s, The Brecon has been beautifully reimagined by Amsterdam design studio Nicemakers, who kept the soul but turned up the sophistication. Timber walls, stone floors, and wool textures are softened by plush vintage sofas and warm lighting. It’s chalet-meets-Mad-Men, and every room opens up to sweeping mountain views that practically beg you to stay a while.


All-Inclusive, Reimagined

This is a fully all-inclusive stay—but forget bland buffets. Here, it’s à la carte breakfasts, homemade cakes and tea in the afternoon, and relaxed, delicious dinners served from an open kitchen that feels more like a friend’s cozy home than a hotel restaurant.


Alpine Wellness, Minus the Fuss

After a day of hiking, skiing, or exploring Adelboden’s postcard-perfect streets, the spa awaits. A heated outdoor pool faces the mountains, while the sauna and steam room keep things warm and serene—especially when the snow starts to fall.


DNA Hotels Verdict

Understated, stylish, and full of retro charm. The Brecon delivers comfort and character in equal measure, all wrapped in some of the best alpine views Switzerland has to offer.
