The Capra Information

A five-star retreat in Saas-Fee, Switzerland’s most unspoiled and eco-friendly ski resort, The Capra is an intimate alpine lodge combining the cosiness of a chalet with the comforts of a luxury hotel. The Capra’s understated elegance is inspired by the pure intensity of the alpine scenery. With just 24 expansive suites and rooms, The Capra genuinely feels like a private hideaway with all the in-room comforts and details one would find at home. The Capra has been designed through a collaboration of Swiss architects and British interior designers, focusing on fusing the alpine traditional character with modern luxury. The materials used have been primarily sourced locally within the Saas Valley and Switzerland. The story of the naming of The Capra is inspired by the Latin word for mountain goat and after the black and white goats that roam the valleys and peaks around Saas-Fee. Unique to the Valais region, these adventurous creatures reflect the hotel’s authentic sense of place and respect for the natural environment. The two-tone goats also embody the ying-yang – the holistic harmony between man and nature, mind and body, which is the hallmark of The Capra.
