GRACE LA MARGNA ST MORITZ

At GRACE LA MARGNA ST MORITZ, the historic façade rises beneath a pitched roof, its windows framed in white.

A week here, month by month

I choose Grace to combine a rail journey with contemporary rooms. For a stay focused on skiing, though, I would prefer an address on the slopes.

Is it for you?

For 2, I would choose the Grace Deluxe Junior Suite for its covered lake-facing balcony.

I’d ask for
The bathroom with separate bath and rain shower.
Worth knowing
After 5pm is the adult period; the spa may allow children to stay longer when it is quiet.

11 min readHow we write the guide

  1. The minibar on arrival

    The minibar is stocked and complimentary on arrival. Room service runs around the clock, with a reduced menu after 11pm: I would choose it for a quiet evening indoors.

  2. Transport from 2 nights

    From the second night, public transport in the Upper Engadin is included in the stay. In summer, mountain lifts are included too: I would use them to explore without driving.

  3. At the pool and sauna

    At the pool, swimwear is required; mobile phones stay outside the sauna. Drinks are served in plastic containers, and glass is kept out of the spa.

  4. The stay’s ski pass

    With Sleep+Ski, a ski pass costs CHF 55 a day from the first night: ski days match the number of nights stayed. The package also includes public transport in the Upper Engadin.

What GRACE LA MARGNA ST MORITZ is

Grace is a 5-star Superior hotel with 74 rooms and suites. Its listed 1906 façade meets a contemporary wing by Divercity Architects. N/5 combines marble, velvet and brass; upstairs, the bedrooms retain windows from different periods. The hotel opens year-round, including the quieter months between seasons.1231

One Lume

Lumina Guide 2027

Gives more than the other hotels of its place and price range.

In the guide for the Sonnenwiese: a swinging lounger for a pause after the mountains.

Its badges

What makes it rare

  • Guests (exceptional)

    267 reviews read: the room pleases more than 9 guests in 10 who mention it, breakfast more than 9 in 10.

  • Critics

  • Ours

    The counter-current pool appeals to me for a stay that combines the mountains with training.

What makes it rare

A badge is an experience travellers look for, that is really here and that few hotels in the guide have.

What the badges are

The 5 things that matter, as guests tell them

What do GRACE LA MARGNA ST MORITZ’s guests say? They write it in their reviews, even those who only came for a drink or dinner: we read every one and tell the 5 things that matter, from the location to the bill.

  1. Location

    9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. One guest describes reaching the platform within minutes for excursions. Another finds the station convenient but would prefer more direct access to the centre.

  2. Room

    One guest describes a spacious suite and lake views through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Another notes that trees in front of the first floor obscure part of the outlook.

  3. Staff and service

    One guest finds skis and lift passes ready on arrival. Another describes having to ask again for coffee promised to their room.

  4. Breakfast

    One review fondly recalls the croissant trolley. Another says that, depending on who was on duty, some breakfast items were not replenished after 9am.

  5. Price

    One guest feels the thoughtful touches justify an expensive stay. Another finds the prices difficult to accept for visitors from Germany.

267 guests said so on Google, from 28 October 2024 to 7 October 2026. The reviews also include visits to the spa, bar, afternoon tea and restaurants without an overnight stay. The other hotels are assessed on the same 5 themes. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.

The hotels we weigh it against in St. Moritz:

  • Badrutt's Palace Hotel
  • Kulm Hotel St. Moritz
  • Carlton Hotel St. Moritz

Price: for 2, the night of 17 November 2026, from 471 CHF on Google Hotels on 28 October 2026.

What a night costs, period by period

For a lower-priced stay, I would look at April; winter shows higher bands and several nights without a quote.

PeriodCHF a night
2 November to 3 December 2026461–827
4 December 2026 to 3 April 2027848–3,245
4 April to 29 April 2027471–1,023
30 April to 24 September 2027522–1,262

One night for 2 adults, at the lowest seller on Google Hotels; room category, meals and taxes unspecified. The calendar shows CHF 9,337 on 3 January 2027 and CHF 8,702 on 4 January, above the table’s winter band. It ends on 24 September 2027 and does not show prices for every night. Booking 18–25 January 2027 together as 7 nights for 2 adults, the lowest seller quoted CHF 3,326 a night, the same as the hotel’s listing. The named offers for that week were all suites.

Where to linger

The blue indoor pool between windows and loungers

Swimming in blue

The spa covers 700 m². The 20-metre pool is kept at 26°C; the separate whirlpool is at 34°C. The saunas include a Finnish sauna at 90°C and a salt sauna at 70°C, alongside a steam room at 44°C.12

Scones, pastries and cups before the lit fireplace

The Living Room fireplace

In the Living Room, Mariage Frères tea accompanies pastries before the fireplace. I would settle here as the light fades over the lake, trading the bedroom for a sitting-room armchair.1
