Below the Grace Hotel is Stuvetta Moritz, where the menu is an ode to Swiss comfort – Engadiner cheese fondue, rösti and Zürcher Geschnetzeltes refined
We visit the coolest fondue spot in St Moritz – and enjoy some healthy options and a great vibe
Waltz into The Grace, the first new five star hotel in St Moritz since the time the dinosaurs ruled the Earth, or at least since they ruled the Cresta Run down the road, skip downstairs from the contemporary Alp-chic lobby and you enter the 1980s chalet-style Stuvetta Moritz.
In December 2024, Stüvetta Moritz was redesigned by the Berlin-based interior designer Fabian Freytag
A fondue restaurant with a modern twist in the shape of its cool dude-and-chick clientele, music and vibe, Stuvetta also has a useful cocktail list and a menu refreshing for its selection of lighter offerings as well as the usual full-nuclear Swiss fondue.

We started with a poached egg from nearby Poschiavo with some delicious grated truffle, and a plate of local deer carpaccio with baby spinach, cranberry and truffle dressing.
Swiss traditions meet contemporary twists at Stuvetta Moritz, and fondue meets more than just bread in their signature Fish Fondue
For the main, you can choose a fish fondue – salmon, seabass, prawns, or kingfish – but we chose to share another healthy option: fondue of beef fillet and chicken breast.

Both were beautifully lean, and we cooked them ourselves in bouillon served with a host of home-made sauces. A protein fondue with broth – a far cry from the gorgeous but less wellness-orientated cheese and bread tradition (which did look incredibly tempting).
Stuvetta Moritz offers a cosy meal alongside views of Lake St Moritz
Wines from the nearby Bündner Herrschaft, Switzerland’s best kept wine secret, complimented. The vibe, even in summer, was fun.
