A little different year..
A little different year..
To be as sustainable as possible, to offer you the very best of what we have, and to create truly personal experiences, this year will look a little different from the last.
In 2026, we welcome one party at a time — a family, a group of friends, an association, or a company. We will do our utmost, whenever you wish and wherever you wish. Breakfast in the open air, dinner surrounded by art, yoga in between — or anything else you might dream of.
Hosting one party at a time means booking the entire hotel. There is no online booking — instead, simply email us your wishes.
