Atmosphere Core marks its entry into Europe with latest heritage hotel
At ITB Berlin 2025, Atmosphere Core confirmed the launch of its newest heritage property in Italy in 2026, making the brand’s expansion into Europe.
Hospitality company Atmosphere Core is making its first foray into Europe with the launch of Borgo Monchiero Heritage by Atmosphere, in the Piedmont region in northern Italy. The property is set in a restored 18th-century monastery built in 1773 and showcases frescoes and Romanesque architecture, a testimony to Italy’s art, culture and cuisine.
Located in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage site famous for some of Italy’s greatest wines including Barolo and Barbera, Borgo Monchiero is a notable three-storey hillside hermitage featuring 19 timelessly designed suites and rooms and an on-property chapel perfect for wedding ceremonies, all elegantly restored while preserving the monastery’s original features.
The former residing monk’s refectory will become the main signature dining restaurant specialising in regional cuisine. Perfect for intimate and private events, small groups can host gatherings in the elevated chapter hall, unwind in a refined lounge bar, or admire panoramic views of hills and vineyards from the garden terrace. A spa enclave includes a sauna, infrared therapy and a restored stone reservoir transformed into a private jacuzzi, with a swimming pool in the landscaped garden.
Commenting on entering the European hospitality market, Atmosphere Core’s Group Managing Director Salil Panigrahi stated, “In the last year we have made associations with a number of European businesses. In Italy specifically, we have the leading Bottega S.p.A. joining our unique Wine Program. These significant partnerships brought Italy to Atmosphere Core and we now look forward to the launch of our first destination in Europe in 2026”.
