Katia Mann was one of the first patients to be treated at the newly opened Wald Sanatorium in Davos in 1911. Her lung catarrh was cured here. When her husband, the writer and later Nobel Prize winner Thomas Mann visited her in the spring of 1912, he was inspired and he went on to write his famous novel ?Der Zauberberg? (The Magic Mountain). His novel, which was based on his impressions and on letters his wife sent him from the sanatorium, was written between 1913 and 1915 and was finished in 1924 after a break of several years. In 1957, the sanatorium was converted into the Waldhotel Davos, which has been under the private ownership of the von Gemmingen family (now in its third generation) since 1911.A 4-star superior hotel with 50 quality rooms, a beautiful panoramic view of Davos and the only salt water pool in the area. "The Magic Mountain" and excellent restaurants are situated nearby. The hotel also invites you to a spa area with whirlpool, steam bath, sauna, massage and fitness room.
