A stroll with the breathtaking Bavarian scenery as a backdrop is a whimsical way to start a stimulating journey in the countryside. As the day begins, it is time to experience the flavors of the Allgäu region with a homemade breakfast. Local products like cheese, fresh bread, eggs, homemade jam, milk, coffee, and juice await guests in the comfort of their apartments to indulge in a slow morning ritual.

INSPIRED BY THE WABI-SABI AESTHETICS AND WAY OF LIVING

The interior design inspiration at Rosso derives from the traditional Japanese wabi-sabi aesthetics. Wabi-sabi is a way of living that focuses on finding beauty within life's imperfections and accepting the natural cycle of growth and decay.

The flair of the past and present seamlessly blend at Rosso, where tradition and modernity coexist. The right balance between both worlds is the reason that makes Rosso a unique small hotel with an exceptional interior design concept in the German countryside.

Rosso combines neutral colors, clear spaces, lime-plastered high walls, and wooden beamed ceilings that shape serene, neat, and functional spaces. The interiors at Rosso recreate the ideal atmosphere to inspire moments of leisure, relaxation, and calm.

Sustainable materials such as recycled wood, bamboo, jute, stone, steel, and glass are flawlessly combined in the different house areas with the proper balance to create a soothing ambiance.

Contrasts are an essential part of Rosso's character. New elements mix with old ones and the different textures in a very harmonic way. Handpicked vintage furniture from Tuscany and Bavaria, modern brass bathtubs, bamboo hanging chairs, linen textiles, and Moroccan-style rugs infuse a singular identity into its interiors.

EXPLORING THE NATURAL RICHNESS OF THE ALLGÄU

Being surrounded by a verdant extension of landscapes and connecting with nature is one of the highlights for travelers at Rosso. Its outdoor spaces are as impressive as its indoors.

From the beautiful garden, full of greenery and fruit-bearing trees, including a little natural lake, guests will be privileged to watch the most extraordinary sunrises and sunsets.

Exploring and learning about the local gastronomy through truffle hunting, regional cheese tasting, mushroom foraging, and beer sampling are some experiences that will broaden one's senses to new tastes and aromas.

EMBRACING THE ART OF SLOW TRAVELING
