Das Apres Hotel

Das Apres

Das Apres is a boutique hotel designed for a mountain ski destination. The hotel combines public day use areas with private guest accommodation. Interiors use walnut veneer, honed natural stone and boucle fabrics, paired with bold accents inspired by Pop Art. Two separate entrances divide day visitors from hotel guests, and the public lobby includes a ski room with direct access to the slopes. Triple glazed units and locally sourced stone cladding support thermal comfort in harsh winters. The layout keeps guest areas calm while allowing active shared spaces.

Das Apres Hotel by ESER ARSLANBAY has been highlighted as an exceptional example of service design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Das Apres Hotel won the Iron A' Design Award in Hospitality, Recreation, Travel and Tourism Design in 2026. The A' Hospitality, Recreation, Travel and Tourism Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design award which honors excellent design of hotels, restaurants, resorts, cafes, bars, cruise ships, theme parks, travel experiences and more.
