Hotel reviews for hotels in St. Moritz

We had a Junior Suite with Balcony (and charged for that), but the room was not like the pictures shown on the internet. It was not decorated with notty pine, but with old looking white walls and worn out blue furniture. There was no table and ... Read more

We booked The Hotel Languard based on reviews in travel guides and Trip Advisor.

On arrival at the Hotel Languard we were given Engadine Passes good for all local transportation and mountain Cable cars etc. The re... Read more

We stayed at the Sonne but thought the rooms were too small and they had only single beds. We would have loved to have the opportunity to book a familyroom with bathroom but that was not possible.
Great to have the bus in front of the hotel.
Sonne is not in the heart of St, Moritz but very well accessable by bus and only a 20 minute walk into town. Read more
