Hospitality here is all-encompassing: a cozy bar, two dining rooms seating up to 60 guests, a spacious outdoor terrace, and a reading room with a small library.

We are located in Val Lumiei, nestled among forests and green pastures, just a stone’s throw from Lake Sauris and the village of Ampezzo. The extensive network of trails is ideal for everything from leisurely walks with children to more challenging treks, and a rock-climbing crag can be found just a few kilometers away, right in front of the bridge over the Lumiei stream. Upon request, we also organize night excursions to mountain huts, featuring a charcoal-grilled dinner under the stars andfor the truly adventurousthe option to spend the night there.
In the kitchen, our philosophy is simple: to showcase the local area, its producers, and sustainability, one dish at a time.
