A hotel by Audemars Piguet, designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, in the heart of the Vall\u00e9e de Joux: at H\u00f4tel des Horlogers, watchmaking, architecture and a landscape you would almost like to keep to yourself like a precious jewel come together.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the Vall\u00e9e de Joux, time has been measured with particular precision for generations. Audemars Piguet was founded in Le Brassus in 1875. Today, the manufacture also owns a hotel here. At first, this may sound like an unusual extension for a watch brand. At H\u00f4tel des Horlogers<\/a>, however, it feels surprisingly natural: those who pay such close attention to proportions, materials and the smallest details can translate the same approach into spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Hotel with a Sense of Its Origins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The history of the hotel dates back to 1857<\/strong>. Back then, it was called H\u00f4tel de France; in 2003, Audemars Piguet took over the property and gave it its current name. The new building constructed later continues this story without turning the building into a hotel-sized watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bjarke Ingels Group designed an architecture that descends towards the valley in staggered lines. <\/strong>Together with the Swiss firm CCHE, they created a hotel whose 50 rooms and suites overlook the Risoud forest. Inside, the design by AU*M incorporates forms and materials from the surrounding landscape. What has been precisely planned feels effortless upon arrival: the eye travels through the space and out into the landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Valley Is the Real Jewel Box<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As beautiful as the hotel is, its greatest treasure lies just outside the door. Lac de Joux, the forests of Risoud and the peaks of the Vaud Jura give the valley a different character with every season.<\/strong> You can walk along the water, venture deeper into the forest or visit the Mus\u00e9e Atelier Audemars Piguet to discover just how closely this place is connected to watchmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Back at the hotel, the focus on the region continues at the table. The kitchen works with products from the valley; Emmanuel Renaut is responsible for the culinary concept, while the on-site kitchen team is led by Alessandro Cannata. Afterwards, the Spa by Alpeor<\/strong> with its sauna and hammam<\/strong> may be calling. Or perhaps you simply stay by the window and watch the light change over the forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Because this is where the most beautiful connection between Audemars Piguet and the hotel can be found: precision is not about planning every minute. It creates a place where you are happy to simply let time pass.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
