Our guide
St. Moritz, the famous luxury destination in Switzerland's eastern Engadin valley, is known in the Jewish/observant world thanks to Maloja Palace - a kosher hotel operating in the village of Maloja, about 12 km west of St. Moritz, on the shore of a clear lake and at the foot of the mountains. Important to know: the hotel operates seasonally, in summer only (typically July-August), not year-round. Gourmet kosher meals are served daily, with a beit midrash and daily minyanim. Outside this season, there's no known permanent kosher lodging in the area - it's worth coordinating in advance and confirming exact operating dates before booking.
Our recommendations
- The hotel operates in summer only (typically July-August) - confirm exact dates with the hotel before booking flights
- Book several months ahead - space is limited during the short season
