Via Veglia 18, 7500 St. Moritz, Switzerland - View on map
Description

A Historic Alpine Legend

Founded in 1856 by Johannes Badrutt, Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is often credited as one of the founding pillars of winter tourism in the Swiss Alps. Its name, “Kulm,” derives from the Latin culmen meaning “hill” , an apt nod to its elevated and commanding presence.  

The hotel has stood sentinel through centuries of change, witnessing the rise of alpine sports, hosting dignitaries, and maintaining its role as a bridge between St. Moritz’s storied past and its modern luxury appeal.  

Setting & Atmosphere

Perched on a prime vantage overlooking Lake St. Moritz, with sweeping views of the Engadin Valley and the Albula Alps, Kulm occupies a position of both prestige and serenity. It sits near the St. Moritz–Corviglia funicular, allowing guests convenient access to the slopes, promenades, and alpine trails. 

Within, the hotel fuses heritage and refinement high ceilings, marble pillars, chandeliers, and plush fabrics meet curated art, historical memorabilia, and modern accents.  

Rooms, Suites & Comfort

With over 150 rooms and suites, Kulm offers a variety of accommodation categories, each distinct, yet unified by elegance and alpine warmth.  The interiors favor wood, rich upholstery, and vistas that frame snow, pine forests, or shimmering lake reflections.  

Room amenities include:

• Bathtub and/or shower

• Seating areas & writing desks

• Flat-screen TV with international channels

• Minibar, safe, and Asprey bath products

• Free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel

The Kulm Spa is an expansive retreat, fully renovated, stretching over ~21,500 ft², and boasting:

• Indoor and outdoor pools

• Whirlpool, steam and sauna suites

• Children’s pool

• Open-air pool with lake views  

Sports and leisure options are abundant:

• Three outdoor tennis courts

• A natural ice rink in winter for skating and curling

• Winter-era legacy sports: the Olympia Bobrun and Cresta Run originate on Kulm grounds

• Kids’ club (“Wunderwald”) offering professional childcare and activities for children aged 3+  

Culinary Excellence & Social Hubs

Kulm features multiple dining venues, from casual to formal. Among its highlights:

• Le Grand Restaurant: A grand ballroom-style restaurant where evening wear is recommended. 

• Casual venues, pizzeria, and slopeside dining complement the formal fare. 

• The Lobby Lounge, also known as St. Moritz’s “living room”, is designed by Renzo Mongiardino with elegance and a welcoming aura. It’s perfect for afternoon tea, cocktails, and social moments against alpine panoramas.

Legacy, Innovation & Future Vision

Kulm is not just about history, it’s evolving. In 2025, the hotel initiated a CHF 125 million renovation project, led by architect Norman Foster, aiming to blend historic preservation with modern design and sustainable materials. 

Despite modernization, it retains core identity: a venerable hotel that continues shaping alpine hospitality.
