Badrutt's Palace Hotel

Badrutt's Palace Hotel, a historic benchmark of Alpine luxury in St. Moritz

Badrutt's Palace Hotel is a luxury hotel located in St. Moritz, Switzerland. It was founded in 1896 by Caspar Badrutt and, according to its own presentation, has established itself over more than a century as a symbol of luxury hospitality and innovation in the Swiss Alps. The hotel describes itself as a benchmark against which other great hotels of the world have compared themselves.

Throughout its history it has welcomed international figures and members of royalty. Among the names the company itself cites as former guests are Coco Chanel, Charlie Chaplin, Alfred Hitchcock and Marlene Dietrich, as well as celebrities, fashion personalities and contemporary visionaries.

Accommodation: rooms, suites and the Serlas Wing

The hotel's rooms were designed by Champalimaud Design and, according to the company, present a restrained elegance that blends heritage with contemporary sophistication. The property recently unveiled the Serlas Wing, a wing designed by the international studio ACPV Architects (Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel) that incorporates 25 contemporary luxury suites and rooms, discreetly connected to the historic Chesa Veglia and crafted with oak, Dorato Valmalenco stone and Loro Piana fabrics.

Eleven restaurants and a diverse culinary scene

The hotel has up to eleven restaurants, including Matsuhisa by Nobu, King's Social House and the legendary Chesa Veglia. The culinary offering is completed by classic afternoon tea in Le Grand Hall and seasonal proposals that bring together internationally renowned chefs in exclusive pop-up restaurants and bars.

Bars, clubs and social life

The property's social offering includes the Renaissance Bar, with a wide selection of whiskies, a carefully curated collection of cigars and an exclusive selection of Champagnes, and Paradiso, set in an elevated position with views, which offers more than 500 wines, one of the largest selections in Switzerland according to the company.

Wellness, sports and Alpine activities

Badrutt's Palace Hotel presents a wide range of outdoor and indoor activities in the Swiss Alps, as well as wellness facilities. Its spa offers wellness and beauty treatments, and the hotel has a new infinity pool, a fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment and personal trainers. The complex was redesigned between 2008 and 2010 with an investment of 70 million Swiss francs to update the Palace Wellness centre. In 2024 a completely redesigned outdoor pool was added, which according to the company is currently the largest outdoor pool in St. Moritz and is heated with water from Lake St. Moritz. This was the first in a series of major investments in this area.
