Carlton Bar & Bel Etage St. Moritz

Carlton Bar & Bel Etage sits on Via Johannes Badrutt, steps from the boutiques of Via Serlas and the shore of Lake St. Moritz. It holds a top 20 international hotel bar ranking from the 2024 Food & Wine global tastemakers awards.

The room runs smart, trading the heavy, wood-paneled decor typical of the Engadin valley for a glass-forward aesthetic. While the international fusion menu covers a wide range of plates, the kitchen performs best when it ignores the standard hotel-dining playbook. It operates more as a place for a drink overlooking the water than a quiet venue for a formal meal. Because it draws a high-energy crowd from the nearby Segantini Museum and shops, the room feels like an extension of the street outside rather than a hushed hotel dining hall.
