A charming aparthotel building becomes an oasis of comfort and beauty in the picturesque alpine setting of Disentis. Positioned on a mountain ridge, the building catches the eye for its selection of sustainable materials that blend in with the surrounding natural beauty. Its stylistic coherence harmonizes with the landscape, respecting the “genius loci”. This building is distinguished by its white color and numerous windows overlooking the valley, offering guests a breathtaking panoramic view and blending perfectly into the surrounding landscape. The entrance to the building is from upstream and an external staircase leads to the ground floor. This layout allows guests to be greeted with a panoramic view and immediately enjoy the beauty of the surroundings. Each of the 15 rooms has a private bathroom, offering privacy and comfort to guests during their stay. The building also has shared spaces, including one kitchen per floor. The building’s pitched roof maintains the same conformation as the surrounding houses, thus respecting the traditional aesthetics of Alpine architecture.
