Hotel Palafitte
About
Nestled on stilts just above the shimmering waters of Lake Neuchâtel, Hotel Palafitte is the only hotel built on stilts in Europe. This contemporary retreat blends modern design with whimsical charm, offering 38 private pavilions—both lake and shore—each with a terrace that opens onto the lake or the forest. The hotel’s signature restaurant, La Table du Palafitte, showcases Chef Ludovic Pigeat’s French‑Asian fusion cuisine, served in a warm, lakeside setting. Year‑round events include a lively Christmas market, scenic after‑works at Bar Le Cadran, and seasonal brunches that feature local specialties and champagne. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a nature escape, or family fun, Palafitte provides an unforgettable stay, complete with sustainable practices recognised by EarthCheck Silver.
