Ideally located in the centre of Europe, Switzerland is one the world’s most prosperous countries offering an unsurpassed quality of life. Du Parc is less than 3 hours from most European destinations, and only 85 kilometres from Geneva Cointrin International Airport (GVA), access to and from this influential financial capital is fast and easy for work or pleasure.

Switzerland’s stable economy is enhanced by a strict conservation ethic, which preserves one of the country’s most treasured resources—it’s exquisite natural beauty. With strict pollution controls in place, even the larger Swiss cities boast superlative air quality and clarity.

Switzerland is home to three mountain ranges: The Alps, Swiss Plateau and The Jura. No wonder the country is renowned for its world-class skiing, thermal spas, wildflower-strewn valleys and health retreats.

There is simply no question that Switzerland offers a standard of living unrivalled in nearly every way.

Located in the exceptional setting of the Swiss Riviera, Du Parc Kempinski Private Residences at Mont-Pèlerin offers owners easy access to the beauty and tranquility of the region. Mont-Pèlerin is a picturesque haven with exemplary amenities. Given its proximity to Geneva, it has become the primary or secondary home to Swiss and foreign nationals who cherish its quaint feel and the innate sense of security and discretion one experiences when spending time there.

Mont-Pelerin is just one hour from Geneva International Airport, 2.5 hours by car from Zurich, or 30 minutes from the private airports of Lausanne and Bex; it is situated in the Canton of Vaud, tucked between Lausanne and Montreux—and 15 minutes from the pretty town of Vevey.

Lausanne and Montreux provide a full complement of cultural, musical and recreational activities, as well as outstanding educational institutions. Some of the world’s leading schools and universities, such as the Institute for Management Development (IMD), Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne (EHL); Ecole Poytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), which has just started a large research program in neurology; the highly reputable Le Rosey boarding school; and other renowned schools such as Ecole Lemania and Collège Champittet are located nearby.

The Belle Époque era in Europe is considered a golden age when both the arts and sciences flourished. Peace and prosperity predominated and the mansions and grand hotels of this period embodied a glorious sense of art and joie de vivre. Today, overlooking Lake Geneva, stands a number of these grand mansions. Among the most imposing is the former Palace Mont-Pelerin, a legendary structure that for 150 years was graced with many famous visitors such as the author, Victor Hugo, Barons and Baronesses from Paris, and a stream of Russian aristocrats.

In 1906 the Palace was recast into The Palace Pèlerin Hotel Baumaroche and remained as a hotel (though with different ownership) for the next century. In 1931, Hanz Leuenberg, a Swiss German, acquired it and changed the name to Hotel Du Parc. He later left it to his daughter, Daisy Chappex. Daisy and her husband lovingly restored the mansion and it was held and managed by the Chappex family for five decades until its rebirth as a hotel school in 2000.

In 2008, Swiss Development Group (SDG) bought the hotel and in collaboration with the Monuments et Sites du Canton de Vaud, undertook a monumental renovation with the vision of transforming the illustrious structure into 24 private residences, each fully serviced by the world-renowned 5-star Kempinski brand. The roof and façade have been remodeled to reflect their Belle Epoque heritage. The beams, mirrors, paneling, and the dramatic central staircase have been redressed back to their former glory; and the original lobby tiles have been integrated into the space. All painstakingly fitted with Swiss and European joinery and craftsmanship, these residences are the first of their kind in Switzerland offering a sense of effortless living in a setting of iconic beauty both inside and out.

On the ground, parklands and gardens have been re-imagined and designed by the world-acclaimed landscape artists EDSA with the aim of creating the perfect escape from the toils of the world. Upon arriving home, owners and their guests step into an enchanting landscape designed to soothe and captivate any time of day or night.

DU PARC There are 24 Du Parc Kempinski Private Residences, varying in size from 200m2 two bedrooms to 690m2 six bedrooms, including three show-stopping penthouses. Each home offers extraordinary south-facing views of Lake Geneva.

The window treatments have been carefully sourced to reflect the beauty of the original façade and to allow each home to be bathed in a luminous expanse of light. All residences feature outdoor access to terraces, with balconies on the lower floors providing access to private gardens. 

The finish was executed by an international team of joiners and carpenters from Italy along with the best of Swiss engineering. The result is 24 homes of superlative craftsmanship and a complement of world-class amenities that together create a sense of effortless, elegant living.
