Mountain Lodge, Adler Resorts’ fourth hotel open in July
in the heart of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage Site
Italy, April 2014…It’s taken more than 10 years to come to fruition, but Adler Resorts’ fourth property, Mountain Lodge (www.adler-lodge.com), is now nearing completion and will open on 3 July 2014. Why the lengthy gestation period? Because Mountain Lodge is located high up in the mountains, at a height of 1800m, and in the heart of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognised for its outstanding natural beauty, so there have been various building obstacles and planning battles to overcome. But it’s been worth the wait.
The Sanoner family, owners of Adler Resorts http://www.adler-
The Sanoner family pulled down the Hotel Mezdi, which had fallen into a state of disrepair, and have replaced it with a central wooden lodge and an arc of 12 small chalets, modelled on old Tyrolean mountain huts, so that they blend in with the unique scenery of the Alpe di Siusi.
Using natural raw materials from the region and sustainable construction methods, local architects Hugo & Hanspeter Demetz have worked alongside Rudi Perathoner from Selva to create a bijou 30-bedroom hotel. The main lodge houses the reception, a cavernous lounge with open fireplace, spacious sun terrace, restaurant, wellness and spa facilities, infinity pool and 18 guest suites, all with panoramic views of the Dolomites. Behind the main building, higher up the slope so they too enjoy uninterrupted vistas, stand 12 two-storey guest chalets.
The aim of Mountain Lodge is to offer guests an unparalleled opportunity to holiday in the midst of unspoiled nature. A place where guests have time to spare, where daily routines are forgotten, pressures disappear and tranquillity emanates from the landscape, to be absorbed by every pore in the body. A place where, after a hearty breakfast of local specialities, the day can be spent exploring nature, whether on skis in winter or on foot in summer, while filling lungs with oodles of the freshest air…returning only to the hotel terrace in the evening to admire the magical light on the mountains, while nursing a good glass of Italian wine.
The 12 south-facing chalets are particularly special, having been entirely made of local spruce wood (each panel planed by a Val Gardena craftsman) in order to give them an authentic mountain feel. Draw back the curtains in the morning and admire the majestic mountains from the cosy warmth of your bed, before heading to the bathroom where throwing open the window reveals a meadow view and, in summer, the sweet scent of flowers. Step out onto the private balcony to breathe in the pristine air and let the morning sunshine warm your soul. In the evening, guests can watch the setting sun from their own terrace or relax in their own private sauna before snuggling up in front of the flickering flames of the fireplace in their own sitting room.
This is yet another hotel at which, as Adler Resorts like to say, you can “let your soul fly”.
Room rates will start at Euros 207 (approx £170) per person per night on a full-board basis, including soft drinks and a selection of Italian fine wines and liquors, as well as access to the spa and wellness facilities, together with a full programme of activities, such as guided skiing, hiking and mountain biking, plus yoga at sunset.
Bookings are now being taken by telephone on +39 0471 775 001 or by e-mail at info@adler-lodge.com; more information can be found on the website www.adler-lodge.com.
