The Post Hotel Löwe is located in the Grisons village of Mulegns. It was built around 1830 and is considered a landmark from the heyday of pass traffic around 1900. The historic building was saved from decay by the Nova Fundaziun Origen and extensively renovated in two stages.

Today, the Post Hotel Löwe welcomes its guests in a lovingly restored building that impressively combines history and contemporary design. The few individually furnished rooms and suites are thematically dedicated to European metropolises and combine traditional materials with modern accents. The public areas also showcase an exciting dialogue between old and new: bold colours, carefully preserved historical structures and modern lighting design create a distinctive ambience.

The LINIjA T, LINIjA S and IRIO S luminaires from Baltensweiler subtly emphasise this dialogue: with their clear, minimalist design language and precise light distribution, they create a calm, contemporary contrast to the historic substance.
