    Simple room but good for one or two nights to stay. Especially if you'd like to travel on a train. Or if you take a bernina Express bus. The hotel is 3 minutes from the station on foot.

    Good location, only about a two minute walk from the train station.

    The hotel is very close to the train station but on the other side of the city center. The reception person Roberto was really very helpful as he gave us a room with beautiful views of the city and mountain.
