2-Star Hotels in Chur — What to Expect
With over five thousand years of continuous settlement, this is the oldest town in Switzerland. Chur’s main draw is its wonderfully preserved medieval Old Town, a car-free maze of cobbled lanes and historic guildhouses leading up to the towering St. Martin’s Church. It’s also the undisputed gateway to the Alps, with the Bernina Express and Glacier Express trains departing right from the station for epic journeys into the high mountains. For a local experience, follow the Plessur River or take the Brambrüesch cable car up for panoramic hiking trails.
The compact city center is the most convenient area to stay, putting you steps from the Obertor entrance to the Old Town and the Rätisches Museum. Chur suits culture-loving explorers and outdoor enthusiasts perfectly, and its efficient rail hub makes it a practical stop for business travelers touring the region. Getting here is straightforward, with direct train connections from Zurich Airport in about ninety minutes.
On HOTEVI, you’ll find eleven hotels in and around Chur. Accommodation is dominated by comfortable, mid-range business hotels and a selection of charming, family-run guesthouses, with a few modern budget options available for cost-conscious travelers.
