About the School
EHL Hospitality Business School is a private hospitality and business school in Lausanne, Switzerland, and one of the most recognised names in global hospitality education. Founded in 1893 as the École hôtelière de Lausanne, EHL is best suited to older students seeking a specialist route into hospitality, luxury, service, entrepreneurship, and international business rather than a conventional university experience. Its programmes include pre-university courses, a Bachelor in International Hospitality Management, master's degrees, MBA options, executive education, and Swiss professional diplomas through its wider EHL network. What differentiates EHL is the blend of academic business training with hands-on hospitality practice, industry exposure, internships, and a strong professional network. Families often choose EHL for its Lausanne campus, applied learning model, international reputation, and clear pathway into leadership roles across hospitality, luxury, real estate, consulting, and service industries.
Located in the beautiful Lausanne, VD, EHL Hospitality Business School has been providing exceptional education since 1893. With a student body of 3000+ students from around the world, the school offers a truly international learning environment with instruction in English & French.
