Hotel Eremito: a special kind of retreat in Umbria
In the heart of Umbria, far away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, lies a unique place of peace and contemplation: the Hotel Eremito. This extraordinary hotel offers its guests an unrivalled opportunity to relax from everyday life and immerse themselves in a world of tranquillity and contemplation.
A journey into the past
The Hotel is more than just accommodation; it is a journey into the past. The building itself has been restored in the style of a medieval monastery and combines the architecture of the past with modern comfort. The thick stone walls and the simple yet stylish interior create an atmosphere that invites inner peace and reflection.
Sustainability and ecology
Eremito is not only a place of tranquillity, but also a pioneer in terms of sustainability. The hotel is almost completely energy self-sufficient and uses renewable energy to minimise its ecological footprint. The rooms, known as ‘Celluzze’, are deliberately kept simple, without televisions or other distractions, to allow guests to concentrate fully on themselves and nature.
Spiritual experience
Spiritual retreats are at the heart of the Eremito experience. The hotel offers a comprehensive programme of yoga and meditation sessions aimed at harmonising body and mind. The yoga classes take place in a beautiful room with a view of the surrounding hills and are suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners. The meditation sessions, often in complete silence or accompanied by gentle music, help guests to reach deeper levels of relaxation and mindfulness.
The power of silence
Silence is a central element of a stay at the Eremito The hotel actively encourages times of quiet where guests are invited to introspect and switch off external distractions. These quiet moments, whether during a walk through nature, meditating or simply sitting and breathing, allow for a deep spiritual connection and self-reflection.
Ideal for solo travellers
Hotel Eremitois particularly suitable for solo travellers. The deliberate simplicity and spiritual orientation of the place create an ideal environment for personal reflection and self-discovery. Here, solo travellers can find peace and quiet in a supportive community of like-minded people without ever feeling lonely. The time spent together over meals and group activities encourages interaction and bonding among guests.
Culinary simplicity
The cuisine at the Eremito reflects the hotel’s philosophy: simplicity and authenticity. Meals are prepared using fresh, local and seasonal ingredients, often from the hotel’s own garden. Guests eat together at a long table, which strengthens the sense of community and encourages interesting conversations.
Activities and recreation
Although the main aim of a stay at the Eremito is relaxation, there are still numerous activities on offer to guests. Hikes through the surrounding nature, yoga and meditation sessions are just some of the ways you can spend your time here. The in-house spa, with a steam bath and relaxation room, offers additional ways to unwind.
Digital Detox
In a world increasingly dominated by technology and constant accessibility, the Eremito offers a welcome escape. The lack of Wi-Fi and mobile phone reception forces guests to truly relax and switch off. This digital detox is an essential part of the experience and many guests find it extremely liberating.
Conclusion
The Hotel Eremito is a unique retreat that celebrates the virtues of simplicity, sustainability and inner contemplation. It offers its guests the rare opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of modern life and immerse themselves in a world of peace and contemplation.
