Hotel Cristallo, Vigo di Fassa

This hotel in Vigo di Fassa is very handy for access to the ski resorts of the western Italian Dolomites and is also hugely popular with climbers. The town itself is a popular departure point for the climbs in the Catinaccio/Rosengarten group of mountains. Visitors can get a cable car from the town to Ciampedie, a focal point for skiiing, and with snow assured thanks to the latest snow-making machines. Vigo di Fassa is also the headquarters of the Ladino Cultural Institute, which works to preserve the local Ladin language and culture. This tongue was once spoken from Austria down to the River Po, but this mix of Swiss Romansh and Friulian is now restricted to the Italian Dolomites (Dolomiti).

The Hotel Cristallo, Vigo di Fassa, is a three-star establishment in a peaceful position, yet only 150 metres from the town centre and 300 metres from the Catinaccio ski area. The village is delightfully picturesque, typical of the region. There is a small fitness centre with a sauna and jacuzzi, as well as a terrace on which to breathe deeply of the crisp mountain air. Guests can also relax in the gardens or in the on-site restaurant, cafe or bar. The front desk is manned around the clock by friendly staff and there is lift/elevator access to all floors.

Each of the 22 rooms at this Dolomites ski hotel has full en-suite bathroom facilities including shower, toilet and bidet, plus hairdryer. There is a safe, so you can leave your valuables behind as you see the sights, and if you need to combine work with pleasure, there is a desk and private telephone line provided for your use. Sky/cable television is installed in each room - so no missing the news and sport from back home. This hotel in Catinaccio/Rosengarten is a great way to combine a peaceful holiday retreat with access to superb winter sports facilities.
