Ancestral Engadine hideaway
Guests gather beneath the ramparts of Tarasp Castle in an intimate alpine retreat cared for by the same family for centuries.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
A five-hundred-year-old Engadine farmhouse held by the Pazeller family across twenty-two generations beneath Tarasp Castle.
Remarkable
Traditional Arvenholz stone pine parlors serve regional Lower Engadine fare and curated Swiss wines.
Notable
Continuous family-hosted hospitality since 1912, welcoming travelers to the tranquil alpine hamlet of Sparsels.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked into the quiet hamlet of Sparsels, the hotel overlooks the Lower Engadine valley, with mountain railways and trailheads nearby.
The rooms
Scented with local Swiss stone pine, the wood-panelled rooms celebrate classic Engadine craftsmanship, while the Panorama Suite frames direct castle views.
The spa
Stone pine saunas and an herbal steam bath lead to subterranean relaxation loungers beneath starlit ceilings.
Kneipp footbaths
Curved blue-tiled Kneipp basins line the wellness corridor, offering hydrotherapy footbaths between sauna sessions.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Pine-clad dining parlours serve regional Engadine specialities, with tables arranged around a traditional ceramic hearth stove.
How it began
Originally a sixteenth-century farmhouse, the homestead first welcomed visitors as a village inn in 1912 during the restoration of neighbouring Schloss Tarasp.
