Following a major transformation, Rosa Alpina—a historic mountain retreat nestled in the Italian Dolomites and owned by the Pizzinini family since 1939—has reopened as Aman Rosa Alpina.
Reimagined by architect Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston, the property blends timeless design with Aman’s signature aesthetic.
Reemerging as an Aman property
The refurbishment, which marks the full integration of Rosa Alpina into the Aman portfolio, honors the Pizzinini family’s legacy while enhancing the hotel’s sense of place through natural materials, tactile surfaces, and a focus on spatial serenity. Local timber, blackened metal, and Dolomite stone frame the interiors, including a new double-height lobby anchored by a bespoke bar that nods to the property’s original piano bar.
Aman Rosa Alpina’s guestrooms and suites have also been entirely redesigned, including an Aman Suite with two king-bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms with steam showers (one with a soaking tub), a dining area for six guests and a large south-facing terrace.
Dining and amenities at Aman Rosa Alpina
Dining takes centerstage with a suite of new culinary offerings: the Grill boasts an open-air terrace; Il Salotto, an all-day lounge for tea and cocktails; Heritage Room for daily breakfast; Cigar Lounge with aged spirits; and Di Vino Room, a private wine library for intimate tastings. A Japanese hot pot restaurant, Akari, is slated to debut during the winter season as well.
Additional facilities include a 18,000-square-foot Aman Spa—with three swimming pools (two indoor, one outdoor), a Jacuzzi, and treatments inspired by the Dolomites’ natural restorative properties—along with game rooms, three private cinemas, and a Ski Lounge equipped with heated boot racks and curated rentals.
