  1. Bürgenstock Resort Lake Lucerne

    Stay 86

    A cherry-red funicular delivers you to two very different buildings perched above Lake Lucerne: a glass-fronted modern structure and a Belle Epoque holdout that looks like it never got the memo. This Swiss Alps resort spreads across 148 acres with ten restaurants and bars, five pools, a spa, and a golf course, though the lake views are so relentless that guests have been known to abandon all of those plans entirely. It holds a Forbes Four Star.

    One honor, in evidence:

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country: how people there rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, and what they breathe. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
