What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“One of my best meals in Italy. I recommend the Penne Alla Pastora—the sauce is sublime and the mushrooms are a great pairing. The Duck Breast was also fantastic but the showstoppers were the sides that came with the Duck Breast. It was prepared with the best beetroot I’ve ever had along with light and crispy hash browns.”
“The restaurant surprised us! Local food, very tasty and for a very good price. The place it’s cosy with tables in the terrace and also inside ones. A place to come back if your nearby!”
“Absolutely loved the place, location was gorgeous. We stayed for 2 nights and had a fantastic time. The village of lajon was incredible the views from the room were stunning. Also the staff were extremely incredible as i had left my wallet and they have since sent it back to me! so 10/10 would 100% recommend and definitely come back. Thankyou to everyone and Oskar”
“Probably best food we had one our 3 week trip, went back and ordered the same thing again. Geröstel with a südtyrolean red wine. All for good prices. 5*!”
“Everything. Great facilities, very clean and cozy. Amazing food. Most of all, staff Oscar, Roberto, and Danka were very helpful and always pleasant and supporting. You must be doing it right as we had an awesome stay with you. Thank you!”
