PARADISO MOUNTAIN CLUB AND RESTAURANT ENTERS NEW ERA AS BADRUTT’S PALACE HOTEL ASSUMES MANAGEMENT FOR THE FAMED ST. MORITZ HOTSPOT

The luxurious hotel introduces world-class dining, legendary after-hours entertainment, and chic interiors and staff donned in Fusalp, Santoni, and Gucci

BADRUTT’S PALACE HOTEL HITS THE SLOPES

Set at 6,000 feet altitude in the striking mountain peaks of St. Moritz, the legendary Badrutt’s Palace Hotel has brought its esteemed service, unparalleled dining and drinking, and dynamic after-hours entertainment to the pinnacle of the Alps with the new Paradiso, open now for winter season. Accessible by ski, foot, snowshoe and chairlift, guests can experience the high life at the exclusive mountain club and restaurant, where panoramic blue skies form a backdrop to an iconic snow-capped mountain setting.

Internationally renowned for its prestigious dining portfolio, Badrutt’s Palace Hotel has assumed management for Paradiso, partnering with family equity firm, KUSANA, to launch a new era for the famed venue this winter season and beyond. Bolstering its distinguished reputation as the slope-side hotspot for generations of St. Moritz jetsetters looking to spend winter afternoons sipping champagne and letting their hair down, the refreshed Paradiso features a striking new design and dynamic entertainment line-up.

“We are delighted to welcome guests and club members to Paradiso to savor elevated hospitality and an unforgettable Alpine experience,” says Richard Leuenberger, Managing Director of Badrutt’s Palace. “We guarantee guests will be spoiled from the moment they arrive, champagne in hand, and look forward to delivering on that promise through tailored five-star service with a side of mountain views.”

MOVING IN STYLE WITH GUCCI, FUSALP, AND SANTONI

Mountain Club members have exclusive access to the Gucci Paradiso lounge. With a look that invites guests to feel welcome and relaxed, members are swept away with spectacular mountain views. The interior design remains discreet in keeping with the elegant and contemporary eclecticism that characterizes the leading luxury fashion brand. Sumptuous velvet chairs and sofas provide with a place to dine, drink and relax while vintage oriental rugs are layered over one another for a textured and cozy effect.

Iconic French skiwear brand Fusalp outfitted the Paradiso team in chic ski suits for winter season, harmoniously designed for ultimate comfort and high performance – reflecting Fusalp’s tailoring expertise and superb technical materials to form-fit the team’s every movement. With their renowned Italian craftsmanship, Santoni created a unique, limited-edition shoe for Paradiso staff – the Paradiso St. Moritz luxury mountain boot, featuring an exclusive colorway and personalized with the iconic Paradiso logo. 

EXPERIENCE LIFE AT THE TOP

With dazzling mountain and lake views, Paradiso’s unique aesthetic encourages guests to embrace life at the top of one of the most scenic parts of Switzerland, setting the tone with an arrival experience on a vintage chairlift outfitted in cozy blankets. Spanning two distinguished areas, the upper Music Deck and lower High Altitude Brasserie both offer limitless possibilities and playful experimentation that creates a restorative detachment from every day activities by design. Paradiso’s Music Deck serves as the club’s central hub of social activity, featuring an expansive terrace, bar, and DJ booth where special guest DJs, singers, and musicians – all chosen and trained by Badrutt’s Palace’s artistic director, Michael “Mr. Mike” Hall – set the vibe for guests to eat, dance and drink on top of the world.

REFINED FLAVORS AND APRÈS DELIGHTS

Helmed by Badrutt’s Palace Executive Chef, Maxime Luvara, the 200-seat High Altitude Brasserie at Paradiso offers a rustic-chic take on local fare, featuring a refined reinterpretation of iconic classics. With an emphasis on sourcing local and focus on total quality and traceability, Paradiso’s menu is inspired by the invigorating aspects of the mountain lifestyle St. Moritz is known for: an abundance of delicious food, fresh air, and bright sunshine. From traditional alpine classics with a twist to mountain comfort food, highlights from the menu include Black Truffle Croque-Monsieur Fondue with riped Engadine mountain cheese, Golden Oscietra Caviar Reserve Du Palace,slow-cooked pork belly Ramen Noodle Soup, Potato Salad with Caviar, and seaweed buttered Lobster Roll.

Paradiso features an extensive wine list for discerning palates, offering more than 500 wines and an exclusive yet robust selection of champagnes. A carefully curated cocktail menu featuring classics, hot drinks, specialty shots and zero proof cocktails is also available to sip to the soundtrack of live music.

Paradiso will welcome guests during the summer seasons for an equally unforgettable culinary mountain experience with views of the sun-drenched Alpine range.
