Cresta Palace Celerina sits in the village of Celerina, a quieter alternative to St Moritz town with direct ski access to the Marguns/Corviglia area immediately behind the hotel. Celerina train station is a three-minute walk away, offering straightforward connections across the Engadin valley. St Moritz lake and town centre are three kilometres distant. The nearest airport, Samedan (SMV), is just eight kilometres away — roughly ten minutes by car — while Zurich (ZRH) is approximately two hours and forty minutes and Innsbruck (INN) around two hours and forty-five minutes. The ski lifts are a nine-minute walk from the hotel entrance, with ski-in/ski-out access available in winter months, making this a convenient base for both on-piste days and wider exploration of the St Moritz region.

The birthplace of Alpine winter holidays and a worldwide symbol of Swiss elegance and luxury.
St. Moritz is one of the world's most famous and luxurious ski resorts, renowned for its 'champagne climate' that promises sunshine for an average of 322 days a year. Since hosting the first winter tourists in 1864, it has become synonymous with glamour, high-end shopping, and world-class hospitality, while maintaining its status as a premier sports destination that has hosted two Winter Olympics. The resort sits elegantly above the frozen Lake St. Moritz in the picturesque Engadin Valley. It is divided into two main areas: St. Moritz Dorf, the upscale village center with luxury boutiques and grand hotels, and St. Moritz Bad, the valley floor known for its spa heritage. Beyond the glitz, St. Moritz remains deeply committed to alpine sports, offering dramatic scenery, the legendary Cresta Run, and exclusive events like the Snow Polo World Cup. Skiers and snowboarders are treated to over 350 kilometers of diverse terrain spread across three main, non-linked areas: Corviglia, Corvatsch, and Diavolezza/Lagalb. From wide, sunny cruising slopes to challenging freeride descents and high-altitude glaciers, the skiing here matches the spectacular surroundings, offering something truly exceptional for all levels of mountain enthusiasts.
Spanning three main sectors, the skiing ranges from Corviglia's wide, sunny, south-facing pistes perfect for intermediate cruising, to Corvatsch's high-altitude, north-facing slopes known for excellent snow quality. Experts and freeriders will find dramatic glacier descents and steep, challenging terrain at Diavolezza and Lagalb.
