Which room should you book at Badrutt's Palace?
Book the St. Moritz Suite: 86 square meters facing the lake, with an expansive balcony and a butler. At Badrutt's Palace the lake is the view to pay for, and a balcony puts you over it. The St. Moritz Suite has both, and most of them can be connected to more rooms, so it grows with a family. The Hitchcock Suite next to it is 83 square meters with the same view and balcony, original furniture and the story of Alfred Hitchcock's stays; take whichever is free.
Below suite level, the Signature Double Room Lake View with Balcony is the room to book: 38 square meters and the only room category with both the lake and a balcony.
The hotel is open from December 3, 2026 to March 30, 2027, per its winter page.

Which room would you skip?
I'd skip the Junior Suite. It is bigger than the Signature room but faces the village, and it is the one suite without a butler. For the same money, a lake view with a balcony is the better room in this hotel.
What changes over Christmas and New Year?
Between December 18, 2026 and January 3, 2027, a booking is paid in full when you make it, and a daily dinner credit is compulsory. Per the festive terms, 100% is charged from October 16, 2026, and a minimum stay applies; the number of nights shows only when you book. The dinner credit is CHF 160 a day for each guest 12 and over at Le Relais or Le Restaurant, or CHF 100 at the other restaurants. The ski pass is included in the rate over the same dates.
Minimum stays also apply during Snow Polo, The I.C.E. and mid-February.
How do you get to the skiing?
By the hotel's free shuttle to the cable car: the hotel is not ski-in, ski-out. It gives the slopes as 5 to 20 minutes away and has its own ski rental, per the activities page. If skiing from the door matters, the Suvretta House room guide covers the hotel with its own lift.
What else should you read before booking St. Moritz?
Still choosing the resort? Courchevel or St. Moritz makes the call and lists the dates of polo and White Turf. The ski hotel room list has the other hotels.
