Eremito Connects You With What Matters Most
"Italy's Eremito all but brags about having the smallest hotel rooms in Europe, calling them “celluzze” — cells meant to evoke the ascetic living of a monastery... Eremito is part of theMICHELIN Guide hotel selection... on the periphery of 3,000 hectares of protected Italian forest...rebuilt to contemporary standards of safety and sustainability... monastic rooms are just nine square meters... Dinner is served... Electricity is discouraged and the internet is foreign... caters specifically to solo travelers... Marcello Murzilli, tells MICHELN Guide Hotels... he created the celebrated Hotelito Desconocido... After fourteen years, Murzilli returned to his native Italy... The stone building that hosts Eremito was just a a ruin when he found it... The layout of the structure follows the original footprint... The small rooms are meant to feel ascetic... About halfway between Rome and Florence... In the morning there’s meditation, then yoga, then breakfast... rates at Eremito are affordable... Ascetic as the celluzze are, the wrought-iron bed frames host thick hemp sheets... Bathrooms feature marble sinks and handmade soaps... Meals are all vegetarian, sourced locally if not grown in Eremito’s own garden... The one place you don’t speak is at dinner... Whether you come for a few days or weeks, Eremito is not about exploring the countryside — being here, with yourself, getting to know the perfect strangers around you — that’s the activity... Book Eremito on the MICHELIN Guide." - Mitchell Friedman
