In the heart of the Dolomites, Hotel El Ciasel awaits you for an unforgettable experience in Val di Fassa. The Planchensteiner family will welcome you with warmth and hospitality in an authentic and comfortable setting. Whether in summer amidst enchanting scenery or in winter on slopes perfect for the whole family, you'll discover your ideal mountain retreat.
In our rooms, timeless elegance and modern comfort blend in a harmonious embrace that celebrates the most authentic essence of mountain living. These are not simply spaces to sleep, but genuine retreats designed to delight the senses and restore the spirit after each day spent amongst the peaks. Spacious and light-filled, our rooms breathe with the natural rhythm of the valley: the enveloping warmth of solid wood from our forests, the artisan details in Tyrolean style that speak of centuries of local craftsmanship, and that quality of air that only high altitude can bestow.Each room has been designed as a small masterpiece of balance, where Dolomite tradition converses with the needs of the contemporary traveller. Natural materials take centre stage: carefully selected Swiss pine and spruce, fine fabrics that caress the skin, local stone elements that bring indoors the ancient strength of the Dolomites. Yet it's in the attention to detail that our rooms reveal their true soul: the delicate, balsamic fragrance of wood that greets you as you open the door, curtains expertly positioned to frame breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks like living paintings, lighting designed to create atmospheres that follow the natural rhythm of the Alpine day. Every element – from ergonomic mattresses guaranteeing perfect rest after your mountain adventures, to modern bathrooms equipped with every comfort, to cosy reading corners where you can lose yourself in a good book whilst outside the snow dances silently – has been chosen and positioned with a single objective: to make you feel enveloped by the authentic atmosphere of the Dolomites, whilst enjoying all those comforts that make a stay truly memorable.
