In 2025, The Capra reopened for the winter season as a newly expanded 38-room boutique luxury hotel. The hotel was first introduced in 2015 and has undergone extensive renovation and expansion over the last decade, including adding two additional buildings to the original hotel structure, all interconnected. The most recent addition added fourteen rooms (six double rooms, seven junior suites and one penthouse suite) and a major expansion to its world-class spa: a new relaxation area, a state-of-the-art fitness room and a yoga/Pilates studio.
The hotel’s setting in the heart of the car-free village of Saas-Fee allows for year-round activities accessible within walking distance, including hiking or skiing the Fee Glacier, and climbing through the Saas Gorge on the town’s Via Ferrata. Plus, the world’s highest revolving restaurant can be reached via the world’s highest funicular at 11,500 feet, along with other active experiences in the dramatic nature of the Valais around Saas-Fee, which includes 18 peaks over 13,000 feet.
