...wonder they could stay as guests until spring. He won the bet - the hikers stayed, and the word spread. Skiing at St. Moritz has been a sought-after winter break ever since, and spurred the expansion of Badrutt's little hostel into what is, four generations later, the regal Badrutt's Palace, the most exclusive, luxurious hotel in town. Past clientele include Aristotle Onassis, Brigitte Bardot and Alfred Hitchcock. Luckily, for the not-so-stupendously rich, prices drop by up to 20% for the late summer season, with double rooms at $266 per night. Continuously updated over the years...
