For lovers of Historic Hotels
This patrician house was built in 1682 by Bernardo Massella and was one of the Bavarian Illuminati centres. Every corner of this house oozes so much authentic history that one can be forgiven for imagining having travelled through time: antique furniture, big, lofty spaces, thick walls, fireplace. Uniquely situated on the traffic-free village square, with a rustic bar and a cosy restaurant.

Special distinction 1998
Distinguished "for the diligent care of the 17th century Hall of the Sibyls and the conservative restoration of the building".
The Masella family constructed a stately manor in the village square of Poschiavo in 1682. In 1848, the estate was sold to Podestà Pietro Albrici and remains to this day in the possession of his descendents. Together with the church, this hotel is one of the most important buildings on the village square. There are several significant areas inside, such as the hall-like vaulted corridor, the Saletta on the ground floor and richly paneled hall on the first floor. In the 90s the owners started renovations in close collaboration with the Department for the Preservation of Historic Buildings and Monuments, rounding the work off by restoring the façade in 1996. Their efforts have added great value to the appearance of the Poschiavo village square.
