Modernist alpine lodge
It strips down the traditional ski lodge to sharp lines and untreated wood, operating with the informal independence of a bed-and-breakfast.

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
the Eden Hotel Bormio’s contemporary re-interpretation of the alpine-lodge idiom is nothing short of spectacular.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Bormio cable car sits just across the road, and the town's cobblestone center is a short walk away.

The rooms
Untreated European larch lines the walls entirely, and full-length windows look straight out at the jagged mountain ridges.
The spa
Woven wooden loungers sit under candlelight in the timber suite, beside a Turkish bath with colour therapy.
The sauna
Tiered benches and hot stones fill the Finnish sauna cabin, lined in pale natural timber.
At the table
Breakfast spreads across custom timber shelves, and the dining room opens onto an outdoor stone terrace facing the slopes.
