Four-star superior family hotel in Pontresina, opened in 1865, with a 35,000 m² park, an indoor pool, the highest outdoor pool in the Engadine and a children's club.

A hotel from 1865 made for families
The Saratz is one of the hotels with the most history in Pontresina: it opened in 1865 as a guesthouse and by 1875 was already a hotel. The Saratz family, who give it its name, are considered the founders of the village as a summer resort. Today it is four-star superior, with 92 rooms and 184 beds, and mixes an Art Nouveau wing, the Chesa Nouva, with renovated areas. It is at the entrance to the village, on the Via da la Staziun, facing the Val Roseg and its glacier.
What sets it apart is that it is designed for travelling with children. It is a member of Swiss Family Hotels, has a supervised children's club from age 3, a corner for over-9s, and a cot, bath, bottle warmer and children's bathrobe in the room, and a paid babysitter at CHF 35 an hour. In winter 2026-27, from 18 December to 14 March, there is supervised play from 15:00 to 20:00, and dinner with the instructors for CHF 30 per child if you ask a day in advance.
Rooms, pools and park
There are nine categories, from simple rooms to junior suites with parquet in the historic wing, with views of the Val Roseg or the village. The family rooms in the Chesa Nouva measure 42 m², with a sitting area, bedroom and two entrances. All have a bath or shower, wifi, Nespresso and minibar included. Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out by 11:00.
The hotel has an indoor pool at 30 °C with a jacuzzi, a hammam in the vaulted cellar, a Finnish sauna, a steam bath and a gym. Outside, a 35,000 m² park with the outdoor Bagnera pool, 10 × 20 m and at 27 °C, the highest and largest in the Upper Engadine according to the house, open from late June to September if the weather allows; there are also tennis, minigolf, a trampoline, a tipi and a playground. For dinner there is the Art Nouveau Jugendstil dining room, with half board of three or five courses, and the more informal Pitschna Scena, with a terrace.
Arriving without a car and what is included
The hotel picks you up free at Pontresina station from 8:00 to 21:00 if you let them know. In summer, from the second night, Engadine public transport (train from Maloja to Cinuos-chel and as far as Alp Grüm, bus and PostAuto) and the summer lifts are included. In winter it offers a lift pass at CHF 55 per person per day. If you arrive by car, outdoor or garage parking costs CHF 18 a night and there are paid electric chargers.
