Situated in the village of San Cassiano in Italy’s UNESCO-protected Dolomites, the historic mountain retreat of Aman Rosa Alpina is anticipated to open on July 25.
Architect and long-standing Aman collaborator Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston was tapped to lead refurbishments at the property. Celebrating the legacy of the Pizzinini family, the design balances heritage with contemporary appeal. Through use of timber, black metal accents and stone, the hotel’s alpine spirit has been preserved, while a re-envisioned double-height arrival space is anchored by a bespoke bar inspired by Rosa Alpina’s original piano bar.
The transformation also includes a complete remodeling of all guestrooms and suites, the introduction of two new 1,615-square-foot Aman Suites and the reconfiguration of the 3,014-square-foot Chalet Zeno, now offering two larger suites as a private retreat for up to four guests.
Aman Rosa Alpina will debut a range of new dining and socializing concepts, as well, including an Italian grill, an all-day lounge for afternoon tea and cocktails, and a breakfast room complete with live cooking stations. In addition, there will be a separate lounge with premium cigars accompanied by aged spirits. For those seeking a more private experience, expert-led tastings uncovering Italy’s culinary and wine culture will take place in a private wine library. For the upcoming winter season, Aman Rosa Alpina will introduce an additional restaurant serving Japanese cuisine, with more details to follow.
The newly built Aman Spa includes three pools (two indoor and one outdoor), a jacuzzi and a thoughtfully curated treatment menu, complete with signature therapies.
Aman Rosa Alpina will also introduce a range of expanded amenities, including dedicated games rooms for children, teens and adults alongside three private cinemas. Elsewhere, the Ski Lounge features heated boot racks and offers curated equipment rental, ensuring a seamless transition between indoors and out.
Aman Rosa Alpina will serve as an experiential gateway to the Dolomites’ year-round wonders through access to over 745 miles of slopes in winter and outdoor adventures—from hiking and biking to climbing—during the warmer months. Exclusive to the property is the Pizzinini family’s two private mountain cabins which will offer wood-fired lunch prepared by a private chef. Elsewhere, families will also be well catered for with a specially designed activity center offering immersive experiences for multi-generational travelers.
