Private parties and celebrations in Switzerland. 

Some occasions call for a special venue

A birthday, a christening, a milestone anniversary, a wedding anniversary, or the company Christmas party – at Hotel Gräpplang and Restaurant Arva, you'll experience moments that deserve the right setting to do them justice, without overwhelming them.

Gräpplang is a hotel amidst its own vineyard. Restaurant Arva serves authentic & seasonal cuisine. Perched above Flums, it features old timber, natural materials and rooms that have character without being ostentatious. A place that carries the occasion – and stays entirely in the background when it should. And where people from all over the world love to come together.

Hotel Gräpplang – The Hus am Weinberg & Restaurant Arva open their doors in autumn 2026. We'll announce the exact date as soon as it's confirmed. Of course, we're already taking bookings for early winter 2026.

Restaurant Arva – for gourmets and connoisseurs

Restaurant Arva serves up authentic cuisine sourced from its own garden and the Alpine region: artisanal preparation, seasonally inspired, using ingredients backed by producers with a name and a story behind them. 

A meal that stays with you, because you know where it comes from and it tastes really good.

Whether it's a small family gathering or a larger party: we adapt to the occasion, not the other way round. The venue can accommodate up to 80 people. And if you wish, you can book the hotel exclusively for yourself and your event.

Celebrating in a sea of lights

As the year draws to a close, our Hotel Gräpplang and Restaurant Arva are the right place to pause and reflect. Together, as a team, with an evening that doesn't feel like a corporate event, but rather like a family Christmas party.

The vineyard in December, the castle ruins in the background, a table laden with local produce: this isn't just a Christmas programme, it's a meaningful way to round off the year. For companies that want to treat their team to something more than the usual December evening.

Heidiland as a stage.

For the day before and the day after

The event doesn't have to start and end in a single evening. The region invites you to stay a little longer: walking trails start right from the hotel, Lake Walen is just a short drive away, and the Tamina Therme in Bad Ragaz is ideal for anyone who wants to take it easy the next day. And anyone coming from further afield will soon realise that Gräpplang is closer than you might think.

  • Zurich is less than an hour away. Close enough that getting there is no issue, and far enough away that you really feel like you've got away from it all.
  • Lucerne: 85 minutes
  • Bern: 150 minutes
  • Stuttgart: 180 minutes
  • Munich: 190 minutes

A place that joins in the celebrations without being intrusive.

Gräpplang lies above Flums, on a hill in the heart of its own vineyard, with a view that feels like a natural extension of the room when you're celebrating.

Anyone wishing to round off the evening outdoors will find the right spot on the new sun terrace, with views of the vineyard and the surrounding mountains. Those who prefer to stay indoors will find it here too.

And the ruins of Gräpplang Castle – a place of power that has kept watch over the hill for centuries – are close enough to make its presence felt, yet far enough away not to get in the way.

Good to Know

What sort of events is Hotel Gräpplang suitable for?

Birthdays, anniversaries, christenings, corporate events, weddings and private dinners.

How far in advance should you make a booking?

As early as possible. 

 

We only have a limited number of dates available for exclusive events – so if you want to secure your preferred date, don't leave it too long. An early enquiry also gives us plenty of time to plan with you and organise the details exactly the way they should be.

Is it possible to hold an outdoor celebration? 

Yes – we offer several options for holding your event outdoors. A drinks reception at the castle ruins, an evening on the terrace, a moment in the vineyard: what’s possible depends on the event, the size of the group and, of course, the weather. We’ll work with you to plan which combination suits you best – and we always have a good solution ready if the weather has other ideas.

Are there any parking spaces for guests?

A limited number of parking spaces are available right next to the hotel.

Are there non-alcoholic alternatives to the wine pairing?

Yes – we treat non-alcoholic drinks as an equal part of the experience, not just an afterthought.

 

Fermented juices, herbal infusions and tea creations from the region can accompany the menu throughout the evening on request – with the same care as our wine selection.

Can the menu be tailored to individual needs – for example, to cater for allergies or specific dietary requirements?

Yes – allergies, intolerances or special dietary requirements are, of course, taken into account during the planning stage. Please let us know your preferences and requirements in good time and we will work with you to finalise the menu.

We'll take care of the details – you take care of the moment.

Every event is different, and that's how it should stay. We'll plan with you, coordinate whatever needs coordinating, and work with partners we trust and who understand what it's about.
