Hotel Widderstein, Schröcken

A modern modular design delivered in 8 months.

25 small apartments, a dining room, an indoor pool and a fitness rooms were added to the existing hotel complex with a new, five-storey wing add to the valley side.

The building is a modular concrete construction, externally clad with sawn larch timber. The balconies on the gable ends are a timber construction, designed to give well-lit corridors and spacious rooms. The traditional house typology is transformed to avoid the hotel disappearing into the sea of similar Alpine competitors. The whole construction period was only eight months.
