It’s all too easy to lose yourself at the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz, both literally and figuratively. The resort began as the Quellenhof hotel, built in 1868 in the spa town of Bad Ragaz, in the foothills of the Swiss Alps and close to the border with Liechtenstein. 

Over the decades, it grew in fits and stages. What is today the elegant Grand Hotel Quellenhof, the biggest building on the property, still stands, but it has been joined by the boutique Grand Hotel Hof Ragaz and Hotel Palais Bad Ragaz.
