Hotel Palazzo Salis

Welcome to your home...at 1090 m above sea level... Established between the 17th and 18th centuries, with over 140 years of history as a hotel, the Palazzo Salis stands in a magical setting with splendid historic gardens, a landmark in the Bergell Valley. Nestled among the majestic mountains of the Bergell Valley, far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, lies the historic Hotel Palazzo Salis with its magnificent 16 rooms and its restaurant. The picturesque garden behind the hotel deserves special mention. In its oldest known 18th century form, it was laid out in geometric shapes. A century later, domestic and exotic groups of trees, including sequoias, give it an artistic touch. This garden which has been professionally cared for in line with its historical significance and unique charm perfectly complements the Baroque palazzo.
Soglio - pure poetry... Soglio:"The threshold to paradise" is how the painter Giovanni Segantini, who wintered in Soglio for several years, described this village.Located on a sunny terrace at an altitude of 1090 meters (3576 ft.), Soglio offers breathtaking views of the valley down below and of the majestic peaks of the Sciora Mountain group on the other side of the valley. The past is always present while walking through this compact village of houses, barns and narrow, cobbled, labyrinth-like alleyways.Archaeological research has found that Soglio was already settled during prehistoric times. Luxurious walled-gardens and tiny plazas with water fountains and washhouses give this picturesque alpine village an Italian flair. In the village centre is the Palazzo Salis with its romantic Baroque garden, built in the 17th century by the powerful and influential Salis family.
