7132 Hotel

7132 Hotel

Twenty-two rooms across four architectural visions, each designed by a different Pritzker Prize winner. Peter Zumthor created the dark Stucco rooms using centuries-old Italian plastering techniques, using richly textured walls, dramatic lighting, modern execution of traditional craft. Tadao Ando contributed minimalist concrete and glass suites with his signature play of light and shadow. Kengo Kuma designed oak-clad rooms inspired by Japanese carpentry, warm wood. Thom Mayne finely crafted wooden cocoons and rooms in ornately figured quartzite stone. You're selecting design philosophy, not room category. All are equally appointed with mountain or garden views, spacious bathrooms, balconies, modern amenities. The differences are purely architectural, and the room choice is of personal taste. Exclusive access to Peter Zumthor's Therme is included in your stay. The thermal baths are built from 60,000 slabs of locally quarried Valser quartzite, arranged as 15 distinct chambers that shift between intimate pools and the large meandering bath. Water from the St. Peter spring flows at a natural 30°C, highly mineralized. The bathing experience is what brings people here, everything else supports that. The two-Michelin-starred 7132 Silver operates at the culinary avant-garde level, French technique with Swiss seasonal ingredients. The Italian pizzeria serves the opposite end with stone-oven cooking and home-style preparations. A café and bar fill the gaps. The spa extends beyond the Therme with five indoor pools, steam rooms, hammam, treatment rooms offering everything from hot stone massage to Ayurvedic therapy. Fitness center overlooks the valley. The Vals valley location is genuinely remote, and tucked where Switzerland meets Italy and Austria. Winter skiing and snowboarding, summer hiking and cycling. The village itself is small and calm, the kind of place where the hotel and baths are the destination rather than exploring the center. This is purpose-built for architecture enthusiasts and people seeking the specific combination of thermal bathing and design.
