Arriving at the Kronenhof is like coming home. I always fondly recall our days at the Kronenhof. The Diavolezza, Bernina and Lagalb areas are a magical winter wonderland. It is a particular outstanding Grand Hotel for family holidays.

The oldest part of the house dates from 1849. Along with the Palace and the Kulm (both in St Moritz) the Kronenhof,  the grand old lady of Pontresina, developed into grand alpine hotels. The Kronenhof was the first of them all. A small boarding house with only three rooms in 1849, it became the Gasthof (inn) zur Krone-Post.
All guest records are still kept in the archives of the Kronenhof. Hence, we know that there were 14 guests in the first year, 11 Germans and ‘other’ nationalities, and three English guests. One of them was a certain F. Hugh who brought his dog, Flip.

Between 2007 and 2008 the hotel now underwent a mindblowing renovation adding a sensational spa-area. The high class of exquisite cuisine, the unique locaction and its well preserved old-world charm make this the perfect holiday destination.
