La Collina Luxury Relais is a five-star property in Clusone, in the high valley of Bergamo. The property is a perfect blend of luxury and high technology, and Concreta, the interior contractor specialized in the realization of hospitality interiors, has furnished the common areas based on the project by architect Silverio Pezzoli of TecnoArreda Interior Design.
Named after the hill it is situated on, and the significant green spaces surrounding it, La Collina Luxury Relais is a former villa with a nightclub and outdoor swimming pool, redesigned and requalified to implement a low-impact structural project. Discover more.
The Structure of La Collina Luxury Relais
The structure features six suites and five chalets, along with a 100-square-meter penthouse with an outdoor terrace, a private spa, two parking spaces, and a lift that opens directly into the penthouse, providing maximum privacy for guests. An olive tree of almost 7 meters welcomes them at the entrance.
The chalets are entirely made of wood, with a corrugated aluminum sheet roof that matches the wood’s brown tones.
The project entrusted to Concreta involved the company in all the realization steps of the common areas, where it tailored the use of materials and furnishings: from pool coatings to custom furniture for the restaurant and bar.
The common areas include an underground reception directly connected to the pool via a tunnel. The pool, structured with a sliding connection between the indoor and outdoor areas, covers an area of 300 square meters clad in Gré stone, a raw local stone extracted from the areas near Lake Iseo, with a resin finish that creates a natural water effect. The pool edge, as well as the terraces of the structure in bioclimatic pergolas and the exteriors of the chalets, are made of Swedish fir wood tinted with evaporated mocha in an autoclave.
The paved outdoor area is made of Luserna stone, including the Rotonda Champagnerie area, an outdoor square where guests can enjoy an aperitif.
Entering the structure, you’ll encounter the spacious Beides Restaurant, featuring a Chef Table room overlooking the show cooking area. Additionally, there’s a breakfast room, a private lounge with a Canaletto walnut table floor, and a visible cellar area.
The restaurant’s structure was built by Concreta, based on the design of architect Silverio Pezzoli. Three main materials make up the restaurant: grey-stained wood, metal (iron and aluminum), and glass for the roof.
For the furnishings, Concreta used slats of Canaletto walnut and moka-stained fir wood, as well as Fenix, a material known for its characteristics -opacity and resistance.
The floors are made of aged oak, and the coverings recall the outdoor areas made of Gré cobblestone, creating a material continuum.
The Gré cobblestone, also used for the common areas’ coverings, establishes a predominant gray coloration that, with its shades, creates an elegant atmosphere, uniform in its tones.
For the bar area, the America’s bar with outdoor seating, the coverings are made of Luserna stone, while the roof is made of the same glass as the restaurant, allowing guests to enjoy more natural light.
In the basement, there’s the Collina MyPurity SPA area, featuring a relaxation room with a valley view and two saunas made of Swiss stone pine wood, known for its relaxing properties and for helping lower heart rate. Additionally, there’s a stone Turkish bath evoking a cave-like ambiance, a Scottish shower, sensory showers, and cabins for the treatments and massages.
The structure also includes a fitness room equipped with top-of-the-line accessories and machinery, offering a workout experience with a panoramic view of the Clusone bell tower.

A Sustainable Relais
Collina Luxury Relais is built on sustainability principles, reflected in the use of eco-friendly materials and the installation of canopies and photovoltaic panels, ensuring energy independence. Additionally, geothermal probes contribute significantly to the structure’s energy needs in summer and winter, such as heating the pool water.
The collaboration between architect Silverio Pezzoli and Concreta for Collina Luxury Relais translates into a combined work to value design and the structure’s features for a high-end positioning equipped with all the latest services, technologies, and comforts.
