Hotel Joseph’s House Davos – Where Tradition Meets Modern Comfort

A heritage hotel reborn in Davos, where classic architecture and modern comfort come together. LAUFEN contributes with refined bathroom solutions combining Swiss precision, functionality and timeless design. 

Nestled in the Swiss mountain town of Davos, the historic Joseph’s House begins a new chapter in its story. Built in 1903 in Jugendstil architecture, this iconic building has been carefully restored and reopened as a contemporary three-star superior hotel. After an extensive two-year renovation, the transformation preserves the original charm while introducing modern comfort and design. The result is a refined balance between heritage and functionality, welcoming guests to 71 rooms, a 200-square-metre wellness area and elegant communal spaces. 

Architecture and heritage

Once a sanatorium and later a modest hotel, Joseph’s House has always been part of Davos’s identity. The renovation respected the building’s distinctive Art Nouveau façade, balconies and characteristic arched windows. Today, its restored interiors feature calm tones and natural materials, reflecting the alpine landscape and the serenity of its surroundings. 

Modern functionality for a timeless retreat

Designed for active guests who value both simplicity and quality, the hotel offers spaces that prioritise comfort and practical elegance. The bathrooms play a key role in this renewal. LAUFEN’s solutions provide the technical precision and refined aesthetics that align with the building’s timeless architecture. Each guestroom features LAUFEN PRO WCs and shower areas equipped with TWINPLUS concealed mixers, rain showers, Twinstick hand showers and Flex hoses. The result is a consistent experience of Swiss functionality and comfort across the entire hotel. 

Swiss bathroom solutions for contemporary hospitality

By integrating advanced bathroom technology within a historical context, Joseph’s House stands as an example of harmony between tradition and innovation. The collaboration reflects LAUFEN’s vision: to deliver complete solutions for premium bathrooms that enhance architectural projects worldwide while preserving authenticity and elegance.
