Are you looking for an extraordinary venue for your next corporate event, wedding or special celebration? Then we have a real insider tip for you today! In the heart of the Engadine, surrounded by majestic mountains and unspoilt nature, lies the smallest 5-star superior hotel in Switzerland: the IN LAIN Hotel Cadonau.

A place of power in wood

The name ‘In Lain’ is Romansh and means ‘in wood’ - and this name says it all! Centuries-old Swiss stone pine, larch and fir wood characterise the atmosphere of the hotel and create a unique place of power that blends harmoniously into the impressive mountain landscape. As soon as you step into the hotel, you are surrounded by an aura of warmth and pleasant fragrances that immediately make you forget the stresses of everyday life.

Exclusivity for your event

What makes the IN LAIN Hotel Cadonau so special? With just 14 luxurious suites (7 junior suites, 5 suites, and 2 family rooms), it offers the unique opportunity to rent the entire hotel exclusively – a true highlight for companies seeking a private setting for strategic meetings or for couples wishing to celebrate their wedding in an intimate atmosphere.

The warm and personal hospitality of the Cadonau host family makes every stay a memorable experience. Since its opening in 2010, the hotel has quickly built a strong reputation and was recently awarded 3rd place in the Luxury Hideaways category of the 101 Best Hotels in Switzerland.

Perfect for seminars and workshops

Looking for a place that sparks inspiration and creative thinking? The hotel’s seminar room is equipped with a flat-screen, projector, and conference table, offering space for up to 16 people. During the summer months, the hotel garden can be used for group work or workshops – a "meeting by the pond" with a panoramic mountain view is an unforgettable experience for your team.

The hotel offers:

  • An exclusive atmosphere in a beautiful setting
  • Warm, personal hospitality
  • Various options for group work
