The Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is a large historic hotel in St. Moritz, Switzerland.[1][2] It was founded in 1856 by Johannes Badrutt.[3]

Overview

[edit]

The hotel is a 5-star luxury hotel,[4] located in the Engadin valley in southern Switzerland. It is very close to the St. Moritz–Corviglia Funicular, which provides access to the main skiing area. It is also close to Lake St. Moritz and hiking trails at Via Alpina.

The name "Kulm" derives from the Latin word "culmen", which means "hill". The hotel provides good views of the local lake and the Albula Alps.[1]

In 2018, the hotel was featured on the BBC television programme Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby.[5]
