"We have had the fortune of visiting St. Moritz many times and admit that if you arrive there for the first time, imagining to find a typical tranquil Alpine village, of wooden and stone chalets with Engadin façades, you may be in for a surprise / a little disappointed. St. Moritz is a world in itself, multi-million franc modern constructions, residential complexes of varying heights, bars, clubs, high end shops and luxury hotels.

 

But this is also part of the allure of St. Moritz : strolling in the center you perceive an exclusive air about this place, it has been a meeting place for the jet set for over 150 years."
