The last time we stayed in Arosa, we stayed in an orthodox Jewish hotel.

The sign was so horribly offensive. But I can imagine it; when I lived there, they still enjoyed the marshmallow filled chocolate goodies called Mohrenkopfe, with foil wrappers depicting grotesque black man’s faces on them

Yes.
I have observed the phenomenon of exalted and exulting Israeli tourists not conforming to standards of behavior both in Switzerland and Asia.
A problem. Specially in meticulous environments.

So is spit, which actually is mildly anti-bacterial. But I rather not touch other people’s sweat or spit. Dogs can cure their cuts and bruises and even wounds by licking.

I'm reminded of Mark Twain's harangues in Innocents Abroad about continental Europeans apparent aversion to soap and bathing. The Jewish guests may well be the only ones showering before and after swimming. I'd find another hotel.

Any Jew who would live in or even visit Europe after WWII is insane.

I think you’re always supposed to shower before swimming, to help keep the pool clean.

But asking only Jewish people to do so is highly insulting to them.
