Plitsch Platsch, 3 bathing tips for this summer
15.07.2022
Are you an adventurer, a sun lover or a pool mermaid? We have compiled three partner hotels with the right swimming facilities to ensure you will never get bored this summer - no matter the weather:
Are you ready to dive in?
Stunning refreshment 2100 metres above sea level - In the middle of the untamed, romantic alpine landscape of the Grisons, an ice-cooling experience awaits you: almost 20 natural pools filled with crystal-clear, turquoise water. But watch out: Although the water warms up a little in the summer, the swim still requires some effort.
Even the ascent to the unique glacier mills is impressive: steep rock faces, lush green meadows, impressive views of Lake Cresta or Lake Cauma.

A great thing for hotels
“As a hotelier, I appreciate the model. Unlike other booking portals, HotelCard does not take commission on bookings. HotelCard members are welcome guests at our hotel and are a real asset, especially in the low season”

Win-win situation for all involved
"I would like to thank the whole HotelCard team for their great commitment. In the meantime, our children no longer live at home and we use the HotelCard offer very often for short holidays. A great thing and I think it really is a win-win situation for everyone. Thank you very much and have fun and success searching and finding nice partner hotels. See you in the next inspiring newsletter."
