Cosy holiday flat in Pontresina
The Arvenstube is a 60-square-metre holiday flat on the outskirts of Pontresina – and right in the heart of the Engadin’s unrivalled mountain landscape. Situated at an altitude of 1,800 metres above sea level, the holiday flat enchants its guests with its superb location, cosy atmosphere and the abundance of Swiss stone pine used in the furniture and ceiling – which is also where it gets its name.
The Swiss stone pine (also known as the Arve) grows at altitudes between 1,500 and 2,500 metres and is often used in furniture-making. The scent of Swiss stone pine is pleasant and soothing, and in folk medicine the wood is prized for its calming effect, which is said to lower the heart rate and improve sleep.
For sports enthusiasts
The Engadin offers a wide range of activities to set every sports enthusiast’s heart racing. In winter, the Engadin offers ski enthusiasts 364 kilometres of slopes (11 ski resorts, 64 lifts) and cross-country skiers an extensive and well-groomed network of 240 km of trails. Our guests can reach the cross-country ski trail in just a few minutes’ walk (200 metres from the holiday flat), and by bus (the bus stop is about 250 metres from the house) you can reach the nearest ski lift in about 15 minutes.
In summer, guests can look forward to fantastic hiking trails, well-maintained flow trails, glacier and high-altitude tours, and crystal-clear mountain lakes. From kitesurfing and sailing to fishing and swimming, there really is something for everyone.
For connoisseurs
The Arvenstube is the perfect place for anyone who wants to start the day at a leisurely pace and generally take things a bit easier. The sun rises over the mountain quite early, flooding the Arvenstube with light and warmth. Even at breakfast, you can soak up the sun and let your gaze wander over the mountains and the green countryside whilst enjoying your coffee from the French press or the coffee machine.
The surrounding area offers plenty of opportunities for long walks and excursions, but you can also linger in the well-tended garden and simply enjoy the peace and quiet. In Pontresina, there are several good options for fine dining, with something to suit every budget. The nearest pizzeria is within walking distance. The Bellavita swimming pool features a spacious wellness area where you can also book a massage.
