Le Fucine Hotel

About Le Fucine Hotel

Le Fucine isn’t a typical wine-country getaway — but then again, Friuli, tucked away in Italy’s northeast near the borders of Austria and Slovenia, isn’t a typical wine region. Known as a producer of some of the country’s finest white wines, it’s little-visited compared to Tuscany or Piedmont, though it does have a handful of stylish new hotels — including the ultra-modern Le Fucine, in the vineyard-dotted hills of Buttrio. Located just off the highway to Udine, the property was once the site of a gas station, and the hotel’s sleek, low-lying buildings vaguely resemble an avant-garde service area. Inside, it’s more like a design museum, mixing sixties glamour with Scandinavian simplicity and alpine chalet-inspired elements. Rooms and suites are minimalist with floor-to-ceiling windows, pale wood floors, white walls, built-in bookshelves, and eye-catching lamps by Artemide. Pieces by Italian designers and artists appear throughout the hotel, including in the retro lounge, with its conical fireplace and wraparound conversation pit, and in the airy, light-filled restaurant, a destination in itself.
