Chesa Albertini

St. Moritz has some fabulous chalets but Chesa Albertini is a standout. Located at La Punt, a seven-minute drive from the town center, this substantial 17th century home has been beautifully restored and renovated yet retains many of its original features. The house has nine bedrooms (to sleep 12), six bathrooms and four reception rooms as well as two kitchens, a games room, fully equipped gym, indoor hot tub and cold plunge pool, a reading room and private cinema—so many facilities you'll barely find time to ski. While much of the original wood paneling and frescos remain, the house has been completely modernised with contemporary furniture, Philippe Starck fittings in all the bathrooms, state-of-the-art entertainment and telecommunication systems, and everything from in-house catering to chauffeur-driven cars and child supervision can be arranged. The chalet is an ideal base for all of St. Moritz's great winter and summer activities, just 10 minutes from the airport.

Chalet rates from £18,085 for 7 nights.
