High-tech amenities such as free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs are standard. Some rooms on the fourth floor are noted to include a complimentary mini-bar upon arrival.
4. Dining Experience
The resort offers a diverse culinary experience with a focus on healthy, regional, and seasonal cuisine. The main restaurant, BACiO della MAMMA, serves authentic Italian dishes such as antipasti, homemade pasta, and oven-fresh pinsa romana in a Mediterranean-inspired setting. During the winter season, Cervolino provides a cozy ambiance for enjoying Graubünden specialties, including cheese fondue and fondue chinoise, using high-quality ingredients and local Davos dairy cheeses. Breakfast is generally well-regarded for its extensive buffet, though one guest noted it had limited options, lacking natural juices, a live cooking station for eggs, and a broader pastry selection. The Scaletta Bar offers a selection of wines and local beers, and room service is available. Half-board options, including a 4-course dinner, are also available.

The service and staff receive consistent accolades for being outstanding, excellent, and exceptionally friendly and helpful.

This prime spot makes it an ideal base for exploring Davos's attractions, including the Kirchner Museum, and for accessing the region's renowned ski slopes and extensive hiking trails.

While generally highly rated, some guests have voiced a few recurring criticisms. A consistent complaint revolves around the temperature of the indoor pool, which some find to be too cold. One guest reported limited breakfast options, specifically mentioning the absence of natural juices, a live cooking station for eggs, and a broader pastry selection, describing it as below the expected standard for a high-end hotel. The same guest also experienced inconvenience when the hotel restaurant was fully booked for dinner on their first night and noted a lack of flexibility and empathy from staff regarding a booking adjustment request made just outside the free cancellation period. Parking can also be a point of concern, with limited availability of garage spaces and instances of guests receiving fines.
