If you are a stickler for quirky art boutique hotels, then Monopol Hotel, bang smack in the middle of St. Moritz, is for you.
With stylish Giacometti lithographs lining the walls and dancing – and sometimes flying – sculptures by Rainer Lagemann bouncing from here to there, prepare for your aesthetic sensibilities to be well-nourished at Monopol.
The rooms are large, well-proportioned, and unpretentious. We loved the spacious walk-in wardrobe, large bathroom and oh-so soft pillows and duvet – the perfect bed in which to warm your toes after traipsing around the snowy town of St. Moritz.
What is the first thing you think of when you wake up? Alright, perhaps the second. Breakfast, of course! And here, you won’t be disappointed. With mountains of hot, cold, sweet and savoury goods, you really are spoiled for choice. This quiet affair takes place in the restaurant on the lower ground floor – a stylish wood-paneled room with colourful art on the walls. Waiters are courteous and on hand for your requests – be as daring as you like!
And then there is the spa…..Ahh, the spa. And this is no ordinary spa! Delight yourself by ensconcing yourself in the large saunas, take a dip in the jacuzzi with spectacular views over the Engadin lake, or engaging in some me-time in the relaxing area (the more frivolous of you might be tempted to shimmy your behind to the splendid vista of the palace, especially as the spa operates a nude policy). Allow yourself, while there, to be tempted by the array of spa treatments – each comprehensive and indulgent in their own right.
