Altitude Bar
A high altitude mix
The best bars are destinations, not only places to drink. The Altitude Bar has always drawn a distinct crowd: sportsmen after a day on the Cresta Run, socialites who have their own particular stories to tell, pianists, and late-night conversationalists all left their mark on this storied room.
Two things to make a room like this hum further are mixology and music.
The cocktail programme by Andrea Delvo, together with St. Moritz Cocktail Week winner Andrea Paci, is built around the Cocktail Calendar: a journey through iconic drinks, mapping milestone moments from the Kulm’s history: a drink that marks the year 1878, when the first electric light came to Switzerland at this very hotel, or a cocktail which celebrates the Winter Olympics in 1928. Seasonality and a considered aperitivo culture further define the menu, with a selection of low- and non-alcoholic options alongside.
The music, curated by Directeur d’Ambiance Arman Naféei, draws on hi-fi listening culture, vinyl sessions, jazz, soul, and bossa nova. On Fridays and Saturdays, a pianist sets the tone from 19:00, followed by DJs from 21:00 to 22:30. The pianist closes the night.
Cocktails & culinary bites at Altitude Bar
From 25 to 29 August 2026, from 18:00 daily, Altitude Bar pairs three India-inspired cocktails with three culinary bites as part of the St. Moritz Gourmet Festival. The cocktails are the work of Andrea Delvò, each with its own story and aromatic identity. Every cocktail is served with a matching trio of bites by guest chef Varun Totlani, head chef of Masque in Mumbai, ranked among Asia’s best restaurants (Asia’s 50 Best). Five evenings where Altitude Bar’s cocktail craft meets Totlani’s culinary signature.
