Slow-life sanctuary in Alsace where medieval ruins, natural forests, and eco-minded hospitality combine in poetic harmony.

Le Morimont is a secluded eco-friendly country hotel in Alsace, set within an 18th-century farmhouse beside the ruins of medieval Morimont Castle. Family-run and full of charm, the property has been carefully renovated with traditional stone, timber beams, and hemp linens, blending historic authenticity with modern sustainability. Today, it stands as a model of Green Key-certified hospitality in France, where peace, heritage, and ecology come together.

Heritage Architecture & Green Renovation

The hotel’s design pays homage to its roots while embracing eco-standards. Thick stone walls provide natural insulation, while low-energy lighting keeps electricity use minimal. Elements of the old castle, such as a centuries-old spiral staircase, have been integrated into the farmhouse, weaving history into the guest experience. The 18 rooms, including family suites, are uniquely furnished with organic cotton, linen, hemp, and upcycled décor, creating a cozy atmosphere rooted in sustainability.

Digital Detox & Slow Living

At Le Morimont, disconnection is part of the charm. Rooms have no televisions, and mobile signal is intentionally limited to encourage a digital detox. Guests instead reconnect with nature, waking to birdsong and the distant sound of cowbells. Evenings are lit by candlelight and warmed by a crackling fireplace, offering a simple, romantic ambiance with near-zero electricity use.

Farm-to-Table Alsatian Cuisine

The on-site restaurant, Le Salad’Bar, highlights seasonal vegetarian dishes and regional Alsatian cuisine. Ingredients come from nearby organic farms and the hotel’s own garden whenever possible. Homemade jams, herbal teas, and orchard produce enrich the menu, reflecting the owners’ deep commitment to farm-to-table dining. Meals are designed to nourish body and spirit while showcasing the flavors of Alsace.

Eco Practices & Waste Reduction

Sustainability is woven into every detail at Le Morimont. Electricity is carefully managed, water is conserved, and all waste is rigorously sorted and composted. The thick farmhouse walls naturally regulate temperature, reducing the need for artificial heating or cooling. These thoughtful choices embody the hotel’s philosophy of “exalting beauty while respecting it.”

Outdoor Exploration & Local Heritage

Guests are encouraged to explore the region car-free. Bicycles are available for use, and hiking trails begin right at the hotel’s doorstep, leading into the pristine Swiss Jura foothills. The nearby ruins of Morimont Castle invite exploration and reflection, offering a tangible link to the past. Surrounded by meadows, forests, and abundant wildlife, the hotel provides direct access to nature-based experiences in Alsace.

A Retreat of Simplicity & Soul

By combining rustic charm, slow living, and sustainable hospitality, Le Morimont proves that luxury can mean simplicity, peace, and connection to nature. Visitors often say they wish they could stay “for about a year” — a testament to the deep sense of tranquility this rare place inspires.
