Fodor's Expert Review Arosa Kulm Hotel & Alpin Spa

What was once a 19th-century wooden chalet has expanded to become a full-fledged "Alpine lifestyle" destination, and its position on the farthest edge of town, at the base of the slopes, is its biggest draw. This sporty luxury hotel has a large foyer warmed by a fireplace and perked up by a bar; from its wraparound windows you can take in acres of green hills or snowy slopes. Guest rooms have soft prints and neutral tones; bathrooms are tile and stone. In winter an Italian trattoria and a Thai restaurant join the main Swiss-style restaurants.
