Description
Hotel Bären is a traditional 3-star hotel in St. Moritz with a history dating back to 1969 and a renovation completed in 2009. It offers 60 rooms ranging from Economy to Double Junior Suites, many with balconies and mountain views. The hotel maintains an old-world charm and a cozy atmosphere, having hosted guests since the 1928 Olympic Games. Guests can dine in two on-site restaurants, including the a la carte Olimpia St. Moritz and Barenstubli, known for local specialties like fondue. Facilities include a covered swimming pool, fitness center, sauna, solarium, and steam room. Free Wi-Fi, parking, and ski storage add convenience, while services like shuttle pick-up from the train station are available on request. The staff receives high praise for friendliness and helpfulness, contributing to a welcoming experience in a quiet part of St. Moritz-Dorf.
Location
Hotel Bären is located on Via Maistra 50, about a 10-minute walk from the center of St. Moritz. It is 700 meters from the Chantarella-Corviglia ski lifts, making it convenient for winter sports. The hotel is near the Olympic bobsleigh track and the Cresta Run, both within a five-minute walk. Zurich Airport is approximately 143 km away, and the hotel offers a free shuttle service from the St. Moritz train station if you notify them ahead of time. Nearby restaurants include Da Vittorio and Romanoff, both around 200 meters from the hotel, providing dining options outside the hotel premises.
Tips
- Book the shuttle service from the train station by emailing your arrival time to avoid a steep walk uphill.
- If you have dietary restrictions, ask about gluten-free and vegan options at breakfast, which are available without extra cost.
- For a better breakfast experience, consider requesting freshly made scrambled eggs to avoid them being overcooked in the buffet.

The hotel from top to bottom was Fabulous. Great staff, friendly and professional. Old World Charm at its best. Daily menus as well as full menu. Buffet Breakfast. Room was clean, spacious (double) with a small balcony. Pool, fitness room, location 5 minute walk to Bobsleigh Track and Cresta Run. Shuttle available at train station if needed. Email train arrival time ahead. I will be back soon!

Beautiful, traditional hotel. Staff all courteous and helpful. Restaurant food excellent. Spa and pool were really enjoyed after a long day of travel. Would like to return again.

It was nice but no room, service and stairs and no one to help

This hotel is quite old, but we adore the old-world charm it possesses. It is about 10 mins walk from the main shopping and restaurant area of St Moritz, and about 5 mins drive from the St Moritz train station. If you're taking the train, contact the hotel beforehand and they can pick you up from the train station free of charge. We booked the most basic room, which was already quite spacious though without a balcony or much view. Though the rooms are dated, they are very clean and comfortable. Our booking came with free breakfast and it has a decent selection of Swiss breakfast stables like eggs (scrambled and soft boiled), cheese, pastries, bread, sausages, cereal, mueseli, yogurt, fruits, etc. If you ask, the hotel also has gluten-free bread and vegan milk (oat or soy) for no additional charge. The service throughout the property is excellent and everyone is friendly and willing to help. We had dinner once at the hotel restaurant and it was delicious and reasonably priced (by Swiss standards). A few points for improvement - (1) the hotel should make it easier for guests to identify and find the driver of the pickup service. The person picking us up was not holding any sign or possessing anything that indicates his affiliation with the hotel (because of that, we saw another couple almost missing the shuttle), (2) the gym doesn't have much equipment (e.g. no treadmill) and whatever it has is quite old, and (3) the scrambled eggs were rubbery and almost inedible after being left in the heated tray for too long. Suggest that the hotel makes smaller batches so they always stay moist. Seems to be a common problem of Swiss breakfasts due to what I would assume to be high labour cost. Overall, we were happy with our stay in this lovely, cozy hotel.

Centrally located. There is a free shuttle to and from train station. We didn’t realize upon our arrival and ended up on a steep incline walk up to the hotel. I didn’t the shuttle option when booking so be aware. It’s a great service as the town is all hills. Easy to walk through the city center from hotel which was clean and comfortable.

Lovely experience. First of all: it's the people. the gentleman on the desk was really kind and covered everything well at check in, which was nice as I was arriving late.
Others will criticise that it's an older building, but it actually has character and a quirkiness and an authenticity . If you want a chain hotel generic 4 to 5 star experience, then go elsewhere.
this actually seemed what I would have thought of as Swiss experience..
The Downsides: The room was small, but you get what you pay for and it was really all I wanted. Breakfast could have been a little more imaginative and a bit more modern - - - but it was only CHF 15. I think in most places an option on Low fat milk would be nice. Scrambled eggs were overdone (but hard to get right anywhere unless cooked from start,) and the tureen was very very oddly placed in the room.
Pet peeve, the Orangejuice tasted like "concentrated Orange Juice:, whereas I think most people would expect "not from concentrate".
Everything was scrupulously clean, if older, and a nice redevelopment effort within the confines of the building, though I'm not sure I'd have used the log like coffee tables in the room which are more like an obstruction to trip over.
Notwithstanding it was St Moritz, the pricing was high,
Overall a really really good experience. I'd love to go back sometime. They're very tuned into that a lot of their client group will be for the Glacier Express and they offered I think free transfer for the train time

Peaceful Charm in St. Moritz
The staff at Hotel Bären was friendly and welcoming. The food in the restaurant was excellent. We liked the high up location and enjoyed exploring the Olympic bobsled run next door. Only downside was extremely small shower and radiator heat that was hard to control.
