Around 20 minutes' drive east of the city, this upmarket little hotel is a redolent combination of solid Aostan stone, heavy wooden beams, lots of glass and contemporary furniture. The lofts under the beams are particularly cosy. Some rooms have spa baths or there's a spa area for all guests to enjoy.
