Grand Hotel Kronenhof

The Grand Dame

The listed Grand Hotel Kronenhof in Pontresina, whose history dates back to 1848, preserves one of the most intact neo-baroque architectural ensembles in the Alps. Surrounded by the Engadine mountain and glacier landscape, the hotel creates an impressive connection between architecture, landscape, and tranquility. The 112 rooms and suites offer views of the mountains and the Roseg Glacier. The Kronenhof Spa, spanning over 2,000 m², integrates seamlessly into the hotel as a modern retreat.

The Grand Hotel Kronenhof also demonstrates culinary versatility. In the Grand Restaurant, one of the most remarkable neo-baroque dining rooms in Swiss hospitality, a carefully curated wine list accompanies the hotel’s cuisine. In the gourmet restaurant Kronenstübli with 16 Gault Millau points, a refined fine-dining experience takes center stage, while Le Pavillon serves light dishes in a sunny atmosphere on its wooden terrace. The Grand Hotel Kronenhof demonstrates how vibrant a historic grand hotel can be.
