A major transformation is underway for Rosa Alpina, a historic mountain retreat in San Cassiano, located within Italy’s UNESCO-protected Dolomites.
Reopening next month as Aman Rosa Alpina, the property will be completely reimagined by architect Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston to blend timeless design with the Aman brand’s signature aesthetic.
Reemerging as an Aman property
The refurbishment, which marks the full integration of Rosa Alpina into the Aman portfolio, will honor 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 hotel’s original piano bar.
Aman Rosa Alpina’s guestrooms and suites have also been entirely redesigned, and two new Aman Suites, each spanning 1,615 square feet, have been added.
Additionally, the property’s Chalet Zeno has been reconfigured to feature two expanded suites, providing an exclusive 3,014-square-foot retreat for up to four guests.
Dining and amenities at Aman Rosa Alpina
Dining takes centerstage with a suite of new culinary offerings: an Italian grill, an all-day lounge for tea and cocktails, a dedicated breakfast room with live cooking stations, a cigar lounge with aged spirits, and a private wine library for intimate tastings. A Japanese restaurant is slated to debut during the winter season as well.
Additional facilities to be unveiled include a new 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.
