Lagació Mountain Residence - A Charming Hotel in the Italian Dolomites

An Eco-Luxury Ski-Hotel with killer views towards the Italian Dolomites.

When it comes to strikingly beautiful mountains, it's hard to imagine a better match than the Dolomites mountain range. This time we present you with a lovely mountain hotel in the heart of the Italian South Tyrol region (San Cassiano) - and the ideal place to enjoy a dramatic Dolomites view. Have you ever heard of the "Enrosadira"? Keep on reading. We chatted with Alexa from Lagació Mountain Residence as we were keen to learn more about this chalet-style property and the Dolomites as a year-round destination.

  • What makes Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence views so perfect?

Our Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence is a jewel in the heart of San Cassiano, a small mountain village in the Dolomites. When looking from the balcony of our Suites, you can see the Dolomites just in front of you. These imposing and unique mountains can evoke many emotions while observing them.
 

  • When (season, month, day, night) is this most perfect view best enjoyed?

Every time of the day has its own particularities. But when the day goes towards the end and the sun is just below the horizon, you can see the “Enrosadira.” These are the moments when the marvelous Dolomites glow red, and you can enjoy the spectacle of nature for a few minutes.
 

  • How should one experience Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence vistas in a truly memorable way?

The best way to experience the incredible views from our Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence is while looking through the window at sunrise directly from your comfortable king-sized bed when a thousand colors light up the sky and the mountains.
 

  • Any particular room(s) or hotel division(s) you would like to highlight for its perfect views?

All the Suites have great views, thanks to the large panorama windows they are equipped with. However, most of our guests say their favorite view is the panorama from Suite Ammonite and Suite Bellerophon on our house's 5th and 6th floors.
 

  • The Dolomites region has been declared UNESCO World Heritage Site. Judging by the images, it is easy to understand why. Apart from its evident beauty, why is the Dolomites region so special?

This question goes very well with our philosophy. As in creating the Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence, we have given first priority to the values of the region we cherish most. Nature has been generous to us; it inspires us and offers a wealth of resources. The Ladin traditions: We are deeply committed to turning to our roots and are proud of our cultural heritage. The Dolomites, which take us to the mystical world of legends, are rich in prehistoric finds.
 

  • Why should visitors stay at Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence when planning to visit the Dolomites?

Our Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence is a gem, refined by tradition and a natural sense of beauty. It furnishes outstanding proof that ecological living and elegant design make a perfect match without detracting from comfort and convenience. Better living in harmony with nature, enjoying life while at the same time doing something for the environment – a comforting thought!
 

  • Compared to other Italian ski resorts, what makes a stay at the Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence unique?

Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence is a surprisingly different, exclusive holiday retreat. A home in which guests feel free from nerve-racking commitments. A hideaway that allows you to set your own pace, thanks to our tailor-made service.
 

  • How ski-friendly is Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence?

Our staff is glad to suggest tours for enjoyable holidays in the world’s largest skiing region, Dolomiti Superski. Next to the in-house Alta Badia Ski Shop & Rental, where you can find top-quality winter sports equipment, you’ll find a special room for skiing and mountaineering equipment, with a personal boot drier and closet. We provide Shuttle Service to and from the slopes, which are just 500m distant. Thanks to the Hotel Skipass Service, you can buy your Skipass online, and we collect it and hand it to you at check-in! Every afternoon after a skiing day, a home fresh-baked cake.
 

  • Your spa seems the right place to relax after an exciting day on the slopes. What would you suggest as a treatment to loosen up tight muscles?

It is right; you need some rest after an adventurous day on the slopes. This is the reason why we called our Spa with the Ladin name “La Palsa”, which means relaxation. The best way to unwind is by enjoying a hot herbal stamp massage or bypassing some precious moments in our hay bath, where the natural perfumes relax the body, mind, and soul.
 

  • San Cassiano, where Lagació Hotel Mountain Residence is located, is one of the charming villages of Alta Badia. What visitors shouldn't miss in San Cassiano?

The small village of San Cassiano, with 896 habitats, is the most charming place in Alta Badia. When thinking of San Cassiano, the good selection of restaurants (including two Michelin-starred restaurants) is the main thought. The cross-country center Alta Badia in Armentarola is fabulous, and from there, you can also start on snowshoeing tours. Also, the nice delicacies and clothing shops are worth a stop after visiting the Ladin Museum.
 

  • What would be the best restaurants in the Dolomites (preferably with a view)?

As our area has a lot to offer when talking about delicious food, the Family Canins decided to create a B&B Hotel Residence, where the guests can enjoy breakfast in style in the beautiful breakfast lounges where we take pride in serving a broad range of home-made jams, all sorts of organic bread and unadulterated South Tyrolean cheeses and cold cuts as well as choice specialties from strictly controlled regional and organic sources. During the day, people can have lunch directly on the slopes in the numerous mountain huts, and at dinner time, we make suggestions, and our guests can choose between 3 Michelin Starred Restaurants, many Gourmet Restaurants, Traditional Farms serving local specialties, or good Pizzerie.
