Kulm Hotel St. Moritz

The Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is a historic 5-star luxury hotel located in the Engadin valley in St. Moritz, Switzerland. Founded in 1856 by Johannes Badrutt, it played a key role in the development of Alpine winter tourism. The hotel is situated near the St. Moritz–Corviglia funicular and Lake St. Moritz, offering views of the Albula Alps and access to hiking trails such as the Via Alpina. The name "Kulm" derives from the Latin culmen, meaning "hill".

The hotel’s interiors reflect a combination of its 19th-century heritage and modern luxury. Public areas feature high ceilings, marble pillars, chandeliers, and red velvet furnishings, while corridors display artefacts related to the hotel’s sporting history and former royal guests. The hotel grounds were used during the 1928 and 1948 Winter Olympic Games.
