more than just a luxury hotel

Coming from a family of hoteliers, hospitality is in his DNA. With a vast and diverse experience from Dubai to Elmau and Bad Ragaz to Celerina, taking on the role of overseeing the culinary journey of the newest addition to St. Moritz is an exciting step. As a graduate of EHL, it brings him joy to contribute all his knowledge and experience to make the hotel a place where guests can feel at home.

In 2016 Pia has started her career in the Bavarian capital Munich with Mandarin Oriental, where she learnt the meaning of "service from the heart" and how to let leave guests with lasting memories.  Her aim is to create a feel-home experience from the moment guests arrives until they leave. Fun Fact: Her second name is "Grazia" - and with her smile and charisma, Pia is our very own GRACE.

Her dream to co-create a hotel with such grace and elegance and to accompany the opening in all housekeeping matters has always accompanied Stefanie since her training. During her training in Dresden and her stations in Canada (Vancouver Island) as well as in Arosa, Silvaplana and Wengen she was able to gain the experience to give our demanding guests the feeling of being cared for as if they were in their own four walls with a touch of refinement.

Born in 1992, Andrea Bonini has established himself as the talented Executive Chef of the GRACE LA MARGNA ST MORITZ, bringing freshness and creativity to the team with his youthful and brilliant leadership.

With Italian roots and an international mindset, Andrea transforms the kitchen into a tailored experience. His passion for gastronomy is reflected in dishes that transcend borders, blending Italian tradition with innovative creativity.

An inherently dynamic cuisine, characterized by constant attention to guest preferences, becomes a primary focus and distinctive feature of the chef.

New chapters always bring along a lot of novelty and excitement but it is the passion that makes the difference. You can go around the world several times from north to south, from east to west but at the end you always end up where your heart beats faster. So here is where she landed. The world of hospitality knocked her reality a little later but her sports background helped her to understand better that even if your mind tries to set limits, your heart is always ready to go the extramile. This is what the GRACE-family is aiming for, not only to be able to share it with our guests. Unique emotions will be remembered.

Her ambition and keen interest in the hotel industry took Livia from EHL-Lausanne to various destinations such as Andermatt, Seville (Spain) and now to St. Moritz in the Upper Engadine. Her passion lies in creating unforgettable experiences, be it through the development of gastronomic concepts or the organization of a wide variety of events. Her enthusiasm for sporting activities is also reflected in her work. Just as in sport, the organization and implementation of events is about discipline, structure and motivation to embrace new things in order to respond individually to the wishes and ideas of guests.

Half American and half French, he has worked and gained experience in various destinations such as London, Hong Kong and Mykonos and has thus encountered the challenges of the international hotel industry. These experiences sparked his passion for all things culinary. He draws his motivation from the dynamics of the varied working day, in which no two days are the same. The interaction with other people, cultures and stories fascinates him and his openness enables him to fulfil all requests and wishes, both internally with employees and with guests.

Through his hobby and passion for fishing, he demonstrates his patience every day and has the appropriate tool for every detail. For any concern related to the condition and preservation of the building, Armin has a solution ready and sets all gears in motion to overcome any challenges as quickly as possible.

Federico, a graduate of the Glion Institute of Higher Education and the top student of his class, combines his academic excellence with a natural passion for luxury hospitality. Originally from Ticino, Switzerland, he brings a unique twist of Swiss precision and a warm, Italian personality to every aspect of his work.

Federico's approach is marked by a keen understanding of the market, strategic insight, and a cheerful demeanor that makes him a standout in sales. His commitment to delivering exceptional experiences for clients is matched only by his enthusiasm for creating lasting connections.

From the world of fashion to the dynamics of luxury hospitality, Anna’s journey is driven by passion, creativity, and an unquestionable commitment to perfection.

Coming from Italian roots, her goal is to capture emotions and make sure they are authentically experienced.

From shaping impactful stories to building meaningful connections, Anna knows that PR is not just about visibility, it’s about creating narratives that resonate and experiences that leave a lasting impression.

Because in the end, it’s all about the details!

The hotel "La Margna" was built at the beginning of the 20th century in the Art Nouveau style, characteristic of the Engadine and it is one of St. Moritz‘s landmarks, not only because of its privileged location and its fascinating panoramic view of Lake St Moritz. It was strategically built at its location because of the train station.

For three generations, master builders and architects Nicolaus Hartmann shaped and coloured the landscape and the building culture of the Grisons. The Hartmanns' works and designs are still well present today, especially in the Engadine, bearing testimony to an era of upheaval and cultural change. The then-blossoming tourism sector demanded a well-functioning infrastructure, which translated into such architectural oroducts as fine hotels. Hydropower stations and the structures of the Rhaetian Railway.

"Built to last. We define sustainability as environmentally sensitive architecture that can adapt to change. What matters most is how people will inhabit and interact with the buildings we create. This three-dimensional thinking translates into dynamic spaces that make an impact, but always serve a purpose."
