When the sky becomes your ceiling: Thurgau celebrates 10 years of bubble hotels

Romanshorn, February 5, 2026 – People have been sleeping under the stars in Thurgau for ten years now, which perfectly illustrates what this region stands for: the courage to embrace simplicity, quality over quantity, and nature as the greatest luxury. Here, the sky replaces the ceiling, birdsong replaces the alarm clock, and the landscape replaces the decor. Since 2016, bubble hotels have contributed to Thurgau's image as a Swiss pioneer in unusual accommodation. There are places where you spend the night. And there are places where you create memories. Thurgau has long belonged to the second category: surrounded by nature, under the open sky, and far from the ordinary.

Ten years of transparency and closeness to nature
What is now popular throughout Switzerland began early in Thurgau. The region has chosen simple and different types of accommodation in the heart of nature. The idea is clear: not just to look at nature, but to experience it. To feel it. To spend the night there.
Bubble hotels have become the best-known symbol of this experience. For ten years, guests have been sleeping under the stars, surrounded by apple trees, in places offering magnificent landscapes or located near sites steeped in history. The bubbles are completely transparent, protected, and comfortable. Demand has been very high since the beginning, and weekends are often fully booked. Bubble hotels have thus made Thurgau a destination renowned for its exceptional nights.

Nights that are more than just sleep
Beyond bubble hotels, Thurgau offers many other unusual types of accommodation. These include beds suspended above the landscape, nights spent in a beach basket or on a single-axle trailer under apple trees. All of these accommodations are offered in small establishments that provide personalized service and are deeply rooted in the region.
These nights are perfect for taking a break from everyday life or for giving an unforgettable gift to a loved one, a young couple, or a group of friends.

Reservations open for 2026
The dates for the 2026 season are now open and ready to be booked. As experience from previous years has shown, bubble hotels are in high demand and fill up quickly, especially on weekends.
To guarantee your preferred date, we recommend booking as early as possible.
