The story

Ecco St. Moritz – 2 Michelin Stars in Champfèr, St. Moritz

A Fine Dining Experience Rooted in the Alps

At the Giardino Mountain hotel in Champfèr, just outside St. Moritz, Ecco St. Moritz brings a distinctly Alpine perspective to modern French cuisine. The restaurant is part of the Giardino Group, a collection of Swiss hotels known for their relaxed, high-end hospitality. Here, the kitchen is led by Chef Michel Hojac, a man who knows the Engadin mountains as well as he knows his stove.

Chef Hojac’s approach is precise and product-focused. With a foundation in the French technique, his cooking is contemporary yet grounded, letting the main ingredient speak with clarity. The style is refined but not fussy, with each element on the plate earning its place. This philosophy has earned Ecco St. Moritz two Michelin Stars, a recognition that speaks to both the team's consistency and the kitchen's distinct identity. It is a testament to cooking that is both technically excellent and deeply personal.

The atmosphere at Ecco St. Moritz mirrors the hotel’s ethos: elegant, comfortable, and refreshingly unpretentious. It is a place where the formality of fine dining meets the warmth of genuine Swiss hospitality. Guests can expect a menu that changes with the seasons, drawing on the best produce the region has to offer. While specific dishes are not detailed here, the commitment is to a journey of flavours that is both surprising and harmonious, paired with a carefully curated wine selection.

For those seeking an exceptional modern French dining experience in the heart of the Engadin, Ecco St. Moritz offers a truly memorable evening. It is fine dining that feels both elevated and natural, much like the Alpine landscape that surrounds it.
