new way of mountain living

The former Hotel La Collina is now part of the Sunstar group. We were on hand to assist with its extensive refurbishment and expansion as the construction managers on the project. First, we contributed our fresh perspective to the existing concept with unique selling points and aspects that add the wow factor. The concept is perfect for a mountain getaway with style and youthful appeal: a club lounge for breakfast and après-sport cocktails, plus a cozy spa area. Our trained eye also helped us optimize operating processes. This impressed the client and created trust – to the extent that we were given overall responsibility on site, including cost, schedule and quality control.

the biggest challenge

A challenging project in a popular winter destination. The season also has a major impact on construction work. During this time, construction sites are virtually at a standstill. We have learned from this, too! As an additional challenge, the winter season in Pontresina is sacrosanct. From December to Easter, under local law, no significant noise is permitted on construction sites.
