A WINTER’S TALE. Hotel Walther is a place where you can do more than just skiing and cross-country skiing in winter. Hotel Walther is a way of life. The building dates back to 1907. Lovingly cared for by three generations of the same family. One of the last family-owned grand hotels in Switzerland. Right here, right now. Designed for your wellbeing in the midst of the winter wonderland Engadine. Love at first sight. Welcome!
Your host family Walther
A BUILDING WITH CHARACTER. Hotel Walther has become an integral landmark of upper Pontresinas, standing and watching over mountain life in this local area for many years. Old-time charm still lives between the grand stairway in the vestibule and the chandeliers of the Grand Restaurant. Retreats like the hotel salon, gourmet restaurant, park and rooms have been renovated over time to meet modern requirements. The priorities have always been to keep the character of the building and creating unique furnishings.
Generous retreat. Beautiful colours, homely wood and cosy interiors create 70 inspiring and charming rooms with generous living accommodation. These rooms are in a world of their own and create a warm contrast to the peaks that display their white splendour outside the windows.
AT THE HEART OF WINTER. Last year saw the celebration of all that was invented in St. Moritz in 1864. And for good reason. The Engadine people are miles ahead in all things relating to winter tourism. They have a unique way of combining quality and nature. Glide down world-famous pistes surrounded by the highest peaks of the Eastern Alps or watch the polo horses thunder across the ice in St. Moritz. Hushed secondary valleys like the Val Roseg and the Muottas Muragl vantage point are places full or romance. Mountains, lakes and light – all of nature's marvels at your feet.
Welcome to Switzerland’s largest snow sports region: 350 km of pistes in six ski regions, 69 cross-country ski trails stretching 246 km, 150 km of maintained winter hiking trails, natural ice rinks, sledge trails, Olympian bobsleigh run, show shoe trails, horse-drawn sleigh rides, curling, large ski tour region, ice climbing, ice kiting and much more.
VARIETY – A DISCRETION. Whatever your plans for your winter holidays, it’s at the doorstep of Hotel Walther. All daily activities start right there at your holiday residence, from cross-country skiing trails to winter hiking trails. And we even chauffeur you personally to the skiing regions in Engadine. Race down the pistes of Diavolazza/Lagalb amongst the imposing mountains of Bernina. Or taste the champagne in the air at the famous world cup races at Corviglia near St. Moritz.

Engadine ski marathon on 13 March 2016 Each year, the nicest reason to stay in shape attracts 13,000 skiers to the trail between Maloja and S-chanf. The world's second largest cross-country skiing event.
THE CROWNING GLORY. You will find art de vivre everywhere, including our restaurants. Both our kitchen and cellar create culinary works of art to tantalise your senses. Hotel Walther has long been a top location for gourmets, loved by connoisseurs who relish its light and elegant cuisine. Culinary art is our passion, that's why we cater for the Grand Restaurant and La Stüva as well as the restaurants of the second family-owned hotel. Next door, at Hotel Steinbock, we dish up Grisons specialities at the Colani Stübli restaurant and Gletscher cheeses at Gondolezza.
