Since there are a few separate base areas to choose from when visiting St Moritz, it is essential to check the exact location of a hotel before booking a holiday here. St Moritz Dorf is home to most of the five-and four-star hotels, while Suvretta has the palatial Suvretta House hotel and a couple of more modest places. St Moritz Bad is a quieter and less showy place to stay.

There is also the option of a five-star and a four-star hotel in the separate village of Celerina 3km from Dorf, plus several apartments. Each village, including Celerina, has access into the main area of slopes at Corviglia.

Unless stated otherwise, prices are per person, based on two sharing a double or twin room, half-board for seven nights, including flights and transfers.
