Krone Säumerei am Inn

Pleasure with History

The traditional house, Krone Säumerei am Inn in La Punt Chamues-ch, whose roots trace back to the 16th century, tells the story of the muleteers who once transported goods, ideas, and stories across the Alpine passes. Today, the Krone presents itself as a stylishly renovated boutique hotel, combining historical charm with modern design.

The individually designed rooms impress with local wood, natural stone, fine fabrics, and great attention to detail. The house also connects to its history culinarily: In the restaurant “La Chavallera,” James Baron combines the culinary treasures of the Alps with ingredients that were once brought to the Engadine by muleteers. Thus, the Krone becomes a place where heritage, hospitality, and indulgence come together in a special way.
