Ski Switzerland

By Susan Breslow Sardone, About.com

St. Moritz, Switzerland

The epitome of ski-scene elegance, St. Moritz is where visitors whoosh down the slopes alongside bold-face names.

Take your cues from the glitterati: Sip an après-ski cafe fertig (coffee with a shot of schnapps)... dine at the famous La Marmite... shop at Armani and Cartier. And the skiing's wonderful, whether down the mostly intermediate-level Nordic slopes or across 75 miles of cross-country trails.

The place to see and be seen when the slopes close for the night is the exclusive and majestic Badrutt's Palace Hotel (check rates now). At the Chesa Guardalej, small buildings are connected by underground passageways.

Complete with a spa, Zurich's Hotel Schweitzerhof is comfort personified.

Hotel Walther is a manor house in picturesque Pontresina, a few km away from St. Moritz.
