What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms are spacious and serene, with heated floors, generous bathrooms, and private balconies overlooking the peaks.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Pine forests and private parkland surround the hotel, just outside the lively center of Madonna di Campiglio.
The rooms
Private balconies look toward the Brenta Dolomites, and bedside circuit switches disconnect electrical currents at night.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The indoor pool is heated to 30 degrees Celsius, with hydromassage seats looking out at the snow.
The spa
A Turkish steam bath with chromotherapy accompanies herbal saunas and a candlelit stone relaxation room.
Restaurant
Stube Hermitage
Carved timber walls surround candlelit tables, where chef Domenico Sepe pairs local herbs with modern alpine cooking.
At the table
A curved pine bar pours Trentino wines, and the outdoor terrace looks directly onto forested mountain slopes.
How it began
A 1996 thesis on high-altitude wellness inspired the family to convert their former farmhouse into Trentino’s first bio-hotel.
