What makes it special
Its 1864 building and neo-Baroque towers give guests a tangible connection to St. Moritz's grand-hotel history beyond the mountain setting.
Room to consider
Check occupancy and living-area layouts before selecting accommodations; the published options differ, which matters when traveling with children or sharing space.
Insider tip
Allow enough spa time to use the indoor and outdoor pools plus the Kneipp stream; a quick swim misses much of the water circuit.
Free membership gives you access to preferred rates, exclusive benefits and current promotions for your stay.
Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski St. Moritz is a practical grand hotel choice for travelers who want to spend time in the mountains. The hotel sits in St. Moritz Bad, at the foot of the Signalbahn cable car, a starting point for Corviglia's ski slopes and hiking trails.
A large Alpine Spa, indoor and outdoor pools, restaurants, a lobby bar and event space accompany a history tied to the mineral springs that first made this part of town famous. As a luxury hotel in St. Moritz, it suits skiers, spa users, families and guests who value mountain access over a central village address.

The location sets Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski St. Moritz apart. Its address is in St. Moritz Bad rather than St. Moritz Dorf, placing the stay in the town's historic spa district. The Signalbahn is the immediate mountain connection, while the hotel's grounds and leisure facilities give guests reasons to spend time back at the property.
The Signalbahn connects guests to Corviglia, the main ski area above St. Moritz. For guests spending several days on the slopes, the proximity keeps the mountain central to the stay. The in-house ski school and sport shop add practical support for equipment and lessons.
Summer has a different rhythm, with hiking, biking, lakes, and Engadin walks replacing piste access. Walking paths around the hotel lead towards the valley's lakes and forests. The same mountain setting can support an active stay without a ski itinerary, with the pools and spa remaining part of the hotel's appeal.
The hotel's 2026 press kit lists 100 rooms, 61 suites and 44 residences, a total of 205. Room design varies by category, but the overall mood is Alpine comfort. Mountain views feature across the collection, with the precise outlook depending on the room. The range includes renovated rooms as well as larger suites and residences.
Suites are worth considering for families or longer stays. St. Moritz trips often involve ski gear, spa time, changing clothes several times a day, and quiet evenings after early starts. Extra space is not only a luxury detail here. It makes the stay easier. The Alpine Suites and residences add living and dining areas and open-plan kitchens, giving longer visits more of a residential feel. The one- to five-bedroom layouts allow family members to gather in a shared living area while keeping separate bedrooms.
The building itself has historic weight. Grand Hotel des Bains dates to 1864, when St. Moritz Bad was known for its mineral springs and spa tourism. That heritage still matters. The hotel does not feel like a small chalet. It feels like a large historic alpine house adapted for modern ski and spa travel.
The Alpine Spa is one of the main reasons to stay. Its 2,800 square meters give wellness a substantial place within the hotel. The natural spring heritage gives the setting more depth than a standard hotel spa. St. Moritz began as a spa destination before it became a winter playground, and Kempinski still carries part of that older identity.
This is especially useful for skiers. A hotel near the lift is convenient in the morning, but the spa matters in the afternoon. Treatment rooms, saunas and places to relax offer a change of pace after time outdoors. Families also benefit because not everyone may want the same amount of time on the slopes.
The indoor and heated outdoor pools offer two ways to spend time in the water. The spa also has a gym, a steam bath and relaxation rooms, so a rest day need not revolve around a treatment appointment. For a mixed group, that creates room for different plans within the same hotel.
Neora brings modern Greek cooking to the hotel, adding a Mediterranean note to a region often associated with alpine classics. Its food is made for sharing, with hand-shaped pitta bread, olive oil and souvla cooked over an open fire among the references to Greek culinary tradition. A meal here can be a sociable part of the stay as well as a change from mountain fare.
The Lobby Bar gives the hotel its informal heart, with wine, cocktails and a place to meet before or after dinner. Friends can gather here after spending the day on different slopes.
St. Moritz has restaurants across town, and guests may dine outside the hotel often. There is room for both approaches: exploring the resort's dining scene and spending an evening closer to the room. The in-house options are useful on nights when guests do not want to leave St. Moritz Bad.
Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski St. Moritz also works well for meetings, incentives, weddings, and private events. The Corviglia, Guarda and Cresta meeting rooms give planners a range of spaces, supported by audiovisual equipment and catering. That gives it a second identity beyond leisure travel, with mountain activities available as part of a wider group itinerary.
Families are another natural fit. Suite options, pools, ski access and the Kempinski Kids' Club bring several parts of an active family trip together. Connecting rooms are available in selected categories, while suite occupancy depends on the accommodation chosen. The mix of facilities leaves room for children and adults to have different plans, rather than requiring everyone to spend each day on the slopes.
The location also suits guests who plan to move through the Engadin. Lake outings, valley walks and visits to the surrounding mountains can all be part of the wider trip. In summer, the hotel becomes a base for hikes, cycling and days by the water. Corviglia and Corvatsch give winter visitors different mountain areas to explore.
Book Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski St. Moritz if you want a 5-star hotel in St. Moritz with the Signalbahn nearby, a substantial Alpine Spa, pools, and a practical St. Moritz Bad location. It suits skiers, spa-focused travelers, families, groups, and guests who want the infrastructure of a large international hotel.
This is a substantial hotel with shared leisure spaces and an events business, rather than a small alpine chalet. The range is useful when a family or group wants to spend the day in different ways, with some heading outdoors while others stay for the spa or a longer lunch.
The main reason to choose the hotel is its balance of mountain convenience and spa scale. It brings skiing, time in the water and dining into one St. Moritz Bad stay, with the Engadin beyond the hotel providing plenty of reasons to go out. For many travelers, that practicality is exactly what makes the stay work.
The dedicated kids' club makes a grand-hotel stay more appealing to families, giving younger guests their own space for play and creativity.
Alpine Suites with one to five bedrooms give couples, families, and larger groups residential space within the hotel’s full-service setting.
Built beside the Mauritius Spring, the hotel connects its Alpine Spa to St. Moritz Bad’s long-established wellness tradition.
