Dining: Four restaurants for every mood (and every diet)
Great days on the mountain start—and end—with good food. At Hotel Schweizerhof St. Moritz, you’ll find four distinct on-site dining experiences:
- Restaurant Segantini: A historic setting where the ceiling painting by Gottardo Segantini (completed in 1904) sets a unique tone. Don’t miss the curated Segantini Breakfast Experience, and note that à la carte dining is also available for guests not on half-board.
- Acla: A casual, all-day venue known for homemade pasta and pinsa—perfect for relaxed, flavour-forward meals.
- Fondetta: Cosy and convivial, ideal for alpine classics.
- Alphütte Clavadatsch: Perched above St. Moritz with panoramic terrace views. Signature dishes include the Zigeunerspiess and half chicken roasted over an open fireplace. The team pauses in the shoulder season and reopens on 27 June 2025, but the hut remains available for private functions by arrangement.
Dietary preferences are well covered: menus explicitly include vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options. Prefer meals with a view? Several venues—including Clavadatsch—offer al-fresco dining on their terraces when weather allows.
Planning ahead helps:
