Sonnenberg Health Hotel
A quiet four-star hotel above the Appenzell hills with fully vegan, gluten-free cuisine, mountain-view rooms and space to slow down.
Why it caught our eye
Sonnenberg makes plant-based hospitality part of the whole stay, not an afterthought. Its hillside setting, 16 rooms and calm emphasis create a thoughtful option for travellers who want nature and vegan food in one place.
What you can expect
Rooms use natural materials and large windows, many with balconies facing the Appenzell landscape. The hotel serves vegan, gluten-free meals, including a changing four-course dinner, and offers relaxation stays, occasional retreats, talks and workshops.
