What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
In its basic silhouette it’s familiar enough, but in every ultra-luxe detail it’s something more than an ordinary chalet.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Among the meadows of Val Pusteria, ten minutes from the ski slopes of Plan de Corones.
The rooms
Glass walls open onto private terraces with heated infinity pools, and each suite has an indoor whirlpool.
The natural bathing pond
Bring a swimsuit.
A chemical-free natural bathing pond sits at the center of the grounds, ringed by wooden decks and mountain views.
The spa
Treatment rooms draw on regional alpine botanicals, and a glazed Finnish sauna looks straight across the valley.
Restaurant
The Living Lounge
Chef Fabian Oberhauser prepares regional South Tyrolean dishes, served in the fireside lounge or on the pond's wooden jetty.
At the table
Breakfast is served on the sun terrace among the pines, or delivered directly to your chalet.
How it began
Architect Stefan Gamper modeled the layout on a traditional South Tyrolean farmstead, dividing the guest chalets from the timber stables.

Our shorthand
How we rate hotels.

A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
