Apartments

APARTMENTS AND AMMENITIES

The recently renovated apartments are situated in a 120 years old house (UNESCO World Heritage). During the renovation we deciced to keep intact as much as possible the original features of the house. This results in one of a kind apartments were tradition and comfort live in perfect harmony. The wooden ceilings with original beams, the original roof structure and the rock walls make it feel like you’re entering the house like it was 120 years ago. This combined with features like floor heating, rainshowers, Wi-Fi, a modern and fully equipped kitchen gives you the best of both worlds.

The apartments have a private garden (south oriented), with tables, seats a bbq and sunbathing beds. Here you can relax and enjoy the sunset on the surrounding mountains after a day of exploring.
Our multipurpose storage room can be used by cyclists to store and dry their equipment after a day out; in winter this becomes the skiroom. The private parking has also a designated area for bikers.
