The Davos-Platz Train Station is across the street. The Grischa’s spacious and individually decorated rooms are furnished in an elegant Alpine style. They feature HD-enabled satellite TV with free internet access, a mini-bar, a seating area, and a bathroom with a hairdryer. The Grischa also features a cigar lounge, a wine cellar, and a sun terrace. Guests can benefit from the Davos Inclusive Card in summer. Large commons areas allow informal conversations between course participants and course lecturers outside of the formal sessions.

Davos is about 100 km north of St. Moritz in Southeastern Switzerland. It can be reached by air by flying into Zurich, and then taking Swiss Rail to Davos Platz, with a change of trains in Landquart. From Northern Europe, the most common rail route is via Zurich and Landquart to Davos Platz. From Italy the best routing is probably from Milan via Zurich to Davos Platz. Driving to Davos should be no problem, since the roads into Davos, although mountainous, are good.
