The Dolomites | Aman Rosa Alpina

Today we're headed to a region where three cultures collide, where jagged limestone peaks take your breath away, and where ancient legends are still passed down over dinner. We're in the Dolomites — specifically, the quiet, breathtaking valley of San Cassiano. Joining me is my friend Hugo Pizzinini, third-generation hotelier and owner of the newly reimagined Aman Rosa Alpina. Hugo and his family have lived in this valley for nearly a century, and their hotel has long been a hidden gem of the Alps.  Hugo and I chat about everything from growing up in this magical corner of Italy, to the hotel's incredible history, to the subtle art of making guests feel truly at home. You'll also hear about off-grid alpine cabins, via ferrata climbs, and a few stories you definitely won't find on Google. Whether you're dreaming of snow-dusted peaks or summer hikes through wildflower meadows, I hope this episode helps you see the Dolomites in a whole new light. Looking to book a luxury hotel?
