Hotel Crystal lies at the heart of all this, surrounded by St. Moritz's chic shops and restaurants, near the foot of a cable lift waiting to whisk you up to the Alps' most scintillating hiking and skiing country. Luxurious beds ensure a good night's sleep after an exhausting day on the slopes - not to mention the rigors of apres-ski! The Crystal's sustaining breakfast keeps you going during the day, while in the evening there is a tempting selection of specialty Italian dishes in the Grissini Restaurant. A health suite with saunas, steam-baths and massages will soothe any aching muscles, while golf and bicycling are available to take advantage of the Alpine summer.

In winter, the snow-covered mountains and frozen lakes is the perfect scene for one of the world's top ski resorts while, in summer, the landscape is transformed with beautiful alpine flowers and bustling activity on the sparkling water.
