Badrutt's Palace Hotel is one of the defining addresses of St. Moritz. Since 1896, it has stood above Lake St. Moritz with the kind of presence that makes a hotel part of a destination's identity. Founded by Caspar Badrutt, the Palace brings alpine scenery into a grand-hotel setting where afternoon tea, mountain outings and evenings at the table all have their place.
The building itself is part of the town's skyline. Its tower and lake-facing position make it instantly recognizable, while the Via Serlas address puts boutiques close to the front door. This is a hotel for guests who enjoy public rooms with ceremony and a lively dining scene. There is also room to withdraw, particularly in the spa or a suite with its own living space.
Soft grey walls, white mouldings and a shaped headboard give this compact room a classic feel. A cushioned chair sits beside the bed, with a reading light and a small table within reach.

The bathroom includes a shower and a lighted makeup mirror. An espresso machine and minibar keep refreshments in the room, while the pillow menu offers a choice for the night. Blackout curtains and optional hypoallergenic bedding complete the sleeping space. Room service is available around the clock.

Room choice begins with the outlook. Village-facing rooms connect you to St. Moritz and the Corviglia mountain, while lake-facing accommodation looks toward the water and surrounding peaks. Superior Double Rooms have king or twin beds and individually arranged interiors. Deluxe Village View Rooms add space for a third guest.
Classic Palace character sits alongside more contemporary touches in the main house, where Champalimaud Design has shaped the guestrooms. For outdoor space, the Signature Double Room Lake View with Balcony makes a clear distinction. Its private balcony looks toward the lake, with room indoors for up to three guests.
The Serlas Wing adds a more contemporary layer. Designed by ACPV Architects, Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, it comprises 25 rooms and suites with oak, stone and Loro Piana fabrics. Wool and cashmere bring warmth to the restrained interiors, alongside furniture by B&B Italia and Flexform. Underground passages connect the extension with the historic hotel complex and Chesa Veglia, keeping this distinct building closely tied to Palace life.
A Serlas Room measures 44 square meters, with a king bed, walk-in closet and a bathroom containing double sinks, a soaking tub and separate shower. The 46-square-meter Serlas Grand Room offers a similar arrangement with large windows and Loro Piana upholstery.
Separate living and bedroom areas make the Serlas Suite more suitable for an extended stay. Its 93 square meters include B&B Italia furniture, a walk-in closet and a double-vanity bathroom. The Serlas Prestige Suite measures 98 square meters and has a living room lit by two large windows, plus an additional guest bathroom. There is somewhere to receive visitors without using the bedroom.
The named suites express the hotel's history in more individual ways. Original furniture and a lake-view balcony give the Hitchcock Suite its character; Alfred Hitchcock stayed here repeatedly. The Hans Badrutt Suite has a grand piano in its living room and an Engadin-style library. Helen Badrutt's namesake suite pairs a drawing room and kitchenette with a balcony, Jacuzzi and steam bath.
For a larger household, the Tower Penthouse Apartment occupies the top three floors of the Palace tower. Four individually decorated bedrooms each have an en-suite bathroom, with living and dining areas, a kitchen and balconies beyond. Pinewood furnishings and ornate paneling give it an alpine residential character.
Family stays on a smaller scale can look to St. Moritz Suites, where an extra bed can be added in the living room and most have connecting options.
Le Grand Hall gives the hotel's social life a recognizable setting. Afternoon tea arrives with sandwiches and tartlets, accompanied by piano music and views toward the lake and mountains. Its wood-paneled grandeur makes an afternoon indoors feel like part of the trip, rather than an interval between outings. At Le Restaurant, breakfast has its own sense of occasion beneath tall windows facing the scenery.
Le Relais carries the more theatrical dining tradition, with Belle Epoque interiors and dishes prepared tableside. La Coupole - Matsuhisa takes a different direction. Japanese-Peruvian cooking by Nobuyuki Matsuhisa fills the hotel's former tennis hall, where a glass dome frames the room above the sushi and cocktail bar. The contrast gives a longer stay variety without relying only on different menus in similar dining rooms.
King's Social House moves between bistro dining, cocktails and dancing, with Jason Atherton's food and a program of international DJs shaping the evening. The Renaissance Bar is a more conversational setting for drinks, with classic cocktails and a cigar selection.
Chesa Veglia is essential. The historic Engadin farmhouse dates from 1658 and sits across the street from the Palace. Its restaurants bring a different scale and atmosphere to dinner. Pizzeria Heuboden occupies the former hayloft, serving brick-oven pizzas and Italian specialties; Patrizier Stuben concentrates on Swiss cuisine. The old house gives these meals a setting distinct from the hotel's grand public rooms.
Grill Chadafö focuses on grilled specialties, while Carigiet Fondue Stübli offers a more intimate setting for Swiss fondue. The Polo Bar adds somewhere to gather over a drink. Together, these farmhouse rooms make Chesa Veglia an interesting alternative to another evening in the main hotel.
Palace Wellness provides a quieter counterpoint to the dining rooms and late evenings. The 25-meter indoor infinity pool is accompanied by a distinctive granite rock, while the heated outdoor pool takes swimming into the mountain air. A Jacuzzi, saunas and salt steam complement the pools. These are substantial hotel facilities for a swim after skiing or an unhurried afternoon close to your room.
Massage, beauty treatments and Ayurvedic therapies broaden the choice beyond the water. Private spa suites offer a more secluded treatment setting, and the fitness center has Technogym cardio and strength equipment with personal training. La Diala, within Palace Wellness, serves lighter dishes. It lets a spa-focused afternoon keep its own pace instead of requiring a return to the more formal dining rooms.
Winter days draw guests toward the slopes, with an in-house ski rental shop and a hotel shuttle to the cable car helping with the practical arrangements. On Corviglia, Paradiso Mountain Club & Restaurant serves alpine comfort food alongside cocktails and music. Its mountain setting gives lunch a social character that fits naturally with an active St. Moritz stay.
Summer brings hiking from the hotel's doorstep, regional cycling routes and sailing on the Upper Engadin lakes, which the concierge can arrange. Tennis and padel keep sport closer to the hotel. For families, Palazzino Kids Club has programs for children aged three to twelve, while teens have the Palace Arcade. Those different pursuits allow a family day to take several directions before everyone returns to the same table.
The Palace's 1896 heritage and distinctive tower make it a St Moritz landmark, giving guests a strong sense of the town's hotel history.
Le Grand Hall's carved ceiling and broad lake views give afternoon tea a genuine sense of occasion without leaving the hotel.
Palace Wellness balances the hotel's social energy with indoor and heated outdoor pools, giving guests a quieter place to unwind after a busy day.
