Seminar hotels
in the heart of Switzerland

Pleasantly far away from everyday working life and yet quickly accessible - this is how the seminar offer in Obwalden can be summarized. After all, the central Swiss canton surrounds the center of Switzerland, which reduces the journey from many company locations to less than an hour.

But the highlight here are six charming, incomparable and personally managed hotels with a colorful range of special experiences, thanks to which planning the supporting program is child's play.

There's no shortage of fresh air to clear your head and space. We would be happy to show you how we can make your seminars, conferences, banquets, training courses, meetings, workshops and incentives a success in a personal meeting.

We look forward to meeting you!

Your Obwalden seminar hotels

Can silence be overrated? Hardly. But it is becoming increasingly rare. Unless you go to the pilgrimage site of Flüeli-Ranft. And check into the art nouveau hotel there. The ideal conditions for events are not only found here in the tranquillity.

Built in 1896 and named "Historic Hotel of the Year" in 2014, the hotel is reached via a unique arcade that resembles an avenue. The façade with its towers is enchanting even from afar. But it is only once you are inside this alpine gem that you are fully immersed in the historical ambience. At the latest when you walk across the walnut-fringed beech parquet floors, are captivated by a neo-Renaissance painting or discover the gold leaf ceiling stuccowork, you know that the event has been a success.

Isn't that what Mark Twain said about seminars? The thunder is good and impressive, but the lightning does the work. "The flash of inspiration", we would say in Sarnen.

Sudden ideas of the witty kind are supported here with ingenious lighting ideas. The lights in all seven seminar rooms can be color-coordinated to suit your individual concept. In the former bowling alley, daylight enters the long room through elliptical windows and in the "freeheit", the multifunctional club in the basement of the building, the disco ball and lighting system ensure that good thoughts find a reflective surface.

Floating is the ideal start to mental work. Meetings and other top-heavy events on the Turren are preceded by six minutes of this state - that's how long the ascent on the orange panoramic cable car takes.

The center of the seminar activities at 1ʼ562 m above sea level is the Turrenhuis, which was only awarded the "excellent" seal of approval as a conference location in 2021 as part of the Swiss Location Award. The highlight of every meeting here - in addition to the personal service - is the view of the impressive mountain panorama and the emerald-green Lake Lungern, which reliably ensures "ahs", "oohs" and photos on the terrace for colleagues who have stayed behind in the office. Floating not only clears the mind - it also creates the vision that no company or organization can do without these days.
