Chur hotel choice: Central Hotel Post vs Hotel Drei Könige
Artim is planning a two-night stay in Chur with his family and is deciding between Central Hotel Post and Hotel Drei Könige. They need advice on which hotel offers better convenience for their luggage and overall comfort, considering they will be traveling with multiple suitcases.
- Choose Central Hotel Post for better luggage convenience, as it has an elevator from the entrance and includes breakfast.
- If you prefer Hotel Drei Könige, be prepared for a stair climb to the reception, but check if the staff assists with luggage.
- Consider the overall room space and amenities; Hotel Drei Könige has larger rooms and a kettle, but breakfast is not included.

Hello everyone,
I would really appreciate some advice regarding choosing between two hotels near Chur railway station for a two-night stay during our Switzerland trip.
We are a family carrying 3 trolley suitcases and 3 medium backpacks, so luggage convenience is a factor for us.
We currently have two options available at almost the same price (for 2 nights, with private bathroom):
- Central Hotel Post, Chur
- Breakfast included in the price
- Elevator available from the entrance/reception level to all floors
- Rooms seem comparatively smaller
- No kettle/tea-coffee facility inside the room
- Hotel Drei Könige, Chur
- Rooms appear better and more spacious
- Kettle available in the room
- Breakfast not included at the same price
- Reception is on the 2nd floor, and from what I understood, guests need to climb stairs first before accessing the elevator
My main concern is whether carrying luggage up to the reception at Hotel Drei Könige could become inconvenient after a long train journey. On the other hand, Central Hotel Post seems more practical logistically, especially with breakfast included.
For those who have stayed in either of these hotels:
- Which one would you personally recommend?
- Is the stair climb at Hotel Drei Könige manageable with multiple suitcases?
- Does Hotel Drei Könige staff usually help with luggage?
- Which hotel feels more comfortable and convenient overall for a short stay near Chur station?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions!
Kind regards,
Artim

Hello again Artim
I am contributing to this thread only because you are travelling in less than two weeks time.
In the trip I referred to in my recent thread #2796225 posted on 12th April, I actually stayed at the Hotel Drei Könige! I liked the hotel However, that was back in …. 1975! So my experience has no real relevance today! (I am a lone traveller who travels ‘light’.)
You are a party of three with what seems to quite a large amount of luggage. Practical considerations point very strongly to Central Hotel Post.
Kind regards
Roger
Hi Artim,
We haven’t stayed at either of the hotels you mention but two years ago we stayed for a few days at the ABC, just across the square from the station. We’re booked in there again this summer.
In 2024 the reception desk had a sign which said simply, “Please Do Disturb” and the hotel very much lived up to that splendid ethos.
Very nice roomy bedrooms with a coffee machine and en suite; lift to all floors and a good breakfast.
The first morning as we appeared for breakfast we were asked our room number. When we gave it the immediate response was, “Ah! Gluten free!”
It’s a modern building and the only downside was that rooms at the back overlooked a courtyard and other equally high buildings. Quiet though, with no noise from the square at the front.
Best wishes for your holiday.
Andrew
