Hidden fees, overcharge and beware of ski lift schedule

So you’re on top of a mountain so it’s understandable that water will be a little pricer than usual. What I didn’t realize is that water is x8 more expensive than at the local market 10mi away (coop Pontresina). At the market, a 1.5L of water is 1 CHF or $1. At this hostel, 1.5L of water is 8 CHF or $8. The first day I arrived, I wasn’t able to go to the market because the ski lift stops running at 17:00 and with the train schedule, I wasn’t able to make it there and back in time. Ok so I would pay $8 for water one time and then made a mental note to hit the store the next day for drinks. Better to pay $8 than to have to go to the hospital for dehydration after a hike. The hostel advertises that a 4 course dinner is free. The dinner is great and they tailor to your diet requests. What they don’t tell you is that water is not included. So I’m not sure what you’re suppose to drink during a 4 course meal or after a long day of hiking. They only tell me that water is $8/bottle when I go to check out so I wasn’t aware that I was being charged every night for water. Also they advertise that they will fill up hikers’ thermos with hot water for tea seemingly for free in their guide book. However, again, the charge for tea is not advertised (photo included). They ask you at the end of your 4 course dinner each night if you want coffee or tea without saying that it’s not included. They way they offer it makes it seem complementary. Some other things to note: -no WiFi in the dorms. WiFi is only available in the dining area -no common room area for guests. The only place you can really hang is either in the dorm room or dining room -only 1 outlet in a dorm of 14 beds -no towels given -I inquired about a glacier hike and was told by the receptionist that she’ll follow up with a guide. She never did follow up. I’m not likely to stay here again…

Hi Mackenzie the 4 course dinner is free and also the tea as advertised - which is always ready after dinner, you can fill up your thermos as many times as you like, and you can also have that tea again in the morning to take on your hike, no problem. During dinner drinks are always extra, I am sorry if you were not aware of that. And nowhere it is said that with the dinner the drinks are included, the meals or prices are nowhere indicated as "all inclusive", I am sorry if you understood it that way. We would have been happy to explain anything - just ask :-) Unfortunately we can not give out tap water since we don't have a water pipeline, so the water in the house is not drinking water. Of course our prices up here are higher than the ones in the supermarket, because we are a hotel and restaurant and we are situated on 3000m/10'000 feet, which means the cost to bring things up here are higher as well. About the outlets - also: just ask :) we have multi outlet power strips free of use, only that we can not let them permanently in the dormitories because the disappear all the time. We have towels for rent, they are included in the private rooms but as a standard in mountain huts in this area they are not included. For CHF 80 a night you have dinner and breakfast included as well as with the two night stay the cable car for free, I think this is a fair price and I am sorry if you were not aware or misinformed about the rest, but sometimes communication is all it needs :) best regards

Perfect for half a day

After a few hours skiing at Corviglia in the morning, we jumped in the bus to go to Diavolezza. This was a very good decision! We started with lunch in the panorama-restaurant and were surprised by the good quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff. And of course, the view is stunning. I won‘t try to describe it, go see fir yourself. Skiing is nice, few people and relaxing tracks through a beautiful landscape. For an entire day, the number of tracks may be a bit limited. …

Dear mvandenbroek thank you for your evaluation, we are glad that you enjoyed your stay at the Diavolezza and we hope to welcome you again one day!

GREAT PLACE, GREAT VIEWS

Great place for sking, sitting in the Berghaus, super nice view to Piz Palü; in case you want theres a hot tub where you can sit with your wife or girl, ordering cold drinks. I think its the tub with the best view ever. BTW. food is excellent (like Bpbnder Fleischteller) with a glass of colde white vine from Wallis area. Not chep though.…

Hi Florian thank you so much for your nice message! We hope to welcome you again soon on the Diavolezza. Best regards

Above the mountains

The landscape is grandiose and fantastic! The cable car is frequent and comfortable. On the mountain top, the wind becomes chilling, 10 degrees, a nice contrast to 42 degrees in shanghai. The views over glaciers are unbelievably impressing.

Roof of the Bernina

For a mountain restaurant (as mountaineers we booked the 'matratzen lager') we had a wonderful stay, with excellent food and a wonderful winelist. Service super friendly. The berghaus has a wonderful view and can be reached by cable car😂
