Who We Are**:

Extraordinary places, passionate people, and shared learning experiences: this is Aethos. We believe that traveling and hospitality should leave a lasting positive impact on the mind, body, and soul. That's the reason why we choose our locations very carefully and work together with people who want to be part of a community instead of just "having a job". Everyone who works at Aethos can make a personal impact on the community and company - great ideas can come from anywhere.

We are a young and dynamic hospitality company that understands the value of time with friends and loved ones. We make a conscious choice towards sustainability and well-being, and the luxury of time and space. We stand for freedom from the stresses and anxieties of modern life. We want to be the first choice for anyone who seeks respite and refuge from the boring, the stressful, and the unsustainable. That's why we define hospitality differently: while all of our decisions should be made with the community and needs of our guests in mind, we always strive to create a community that we want to be part of and that improves the world around us. We invite you to be part of our story.

**Our Hotels and Clubs**:

With six properties in the pipeline and a wider expansion plan set for 2025, Aethos is a lifestyle hospitality brand built on a pioneering concept of hosting: a collection of boutique hotels, resorts and members' clubs designed for a global community of conscious explorers who seek barefoot luxury, memorable experiences and authentic inspiration for the body, mind and spirit.

Aethos operates four properties around Italy: Aethos Milan; Aethos Monterosa (located in the Italian Alps); Aethos Saragano (in Umbria) and Aethos Sardinia. This diverse portfolio combines urban sophistication with leisure escapes, all focused on delivering exceptional guest experiences. Aethos aims to create a collection of properties that will serve as clusters for its guests to enjoy. These clusters will comprise a city destination and a countryside or seaside destination within driving distance, offering a diverse range of experiences.
