In the heart of the Fextal
Days in magical light and harmonious vastness.

Timeless
In 1585 the Chesa Pool was built by order of Baptista of Salis.
Since then, its charm has lasted through the centuries to the present day. Many generations, families, fine spirits and lovers of the Fextal have shaped the Chesa Pool.
THE FIRST VEGETARIAN HOTEL IN ENGADIN
All around happy in the Chesa Pool. Anyone who has ever experienced the wonderful days in the pure nature of the Fex Valley, its crystal-clear air, its unspoilt landscape, will feel exactly: this harmony must be preserved. This is why the Chesa Pool is going ahead. It is the first and only vegetarian hotel in the Engadin. This step is logical, this step is courageous and it is above all one thing: a culinary delight of the highest order, a feast for all the senses.

HISTORY
"Chesa" is the name in Romansh for a time-honoured, typical Engadine house. These houses were mostly built as farmhouses with living quarters. Today this converted Engadine house forms the main building of the Chesa Pool. Where once the farmers stored their hay, the women smoked their meat in the "Chamineda" and where everyone helped to clear the meter-high snow by hand, today you can let yourself be spoiled as a guest, gain strength and set off on an adventurous exploration of this unique landscape.
