Kulm Hotel, hotel in St. Moritz, Switzerland
The Kulm Hotel is a large hotel in St. Moritz, Switzerland, with over one hundred rooms that face the village, the mountains, or the lake. The interiors feature wood floors and are decorated in shades of blue and red.
The hotel was founded in 1856 and was the first building in St. Moritz to have electric lighting. It is widely regarded as one of the starting points of modern winter tourism in the Alps.
The Kulm Hotel is closely tied to the tradition of winter tourism that took root in St. Moritz during the 19th century. Its Sunny Bar is a gathering spot where guests and locals come together after a day on the mountain.
The hotel is within walking distance of the main ski lifts, and a shuttle is also available for guests who prefer not to walk. Staff can help arrange activities, ski transport, and connections to the train station.
Inside the Sunny Bar, there is a long-standing tradition where guests try to hang from rings suspended from the ceiling for as long as they can. This custom comes from the Cresta Club and has been part of the hotel's daily life for generations.
