Leading Hotels of the World in Western Europe: The Full List

Western Europe is where LHW was born, and its 97 members here remain the collection's spine. Paris brings the Ritz and La Réserve; Switzerland alone fields 35 members — Badrutt's Palace, Baur au Lac, the Dolder Grand, Gstaad Palace — the deepest alpine line-up under any flag; Vienna and Salzburg answer with the Sachers; Monaco with all three of Monte-Carlo's palace hotels.

Every hotel below carries Leaders Club benefits — breakfast for two, upgrade requests, points toward free nights — and Biirdee stacks partner perks on top where we hold direct relationships. "Check live rates" links open each property on our booking site.
