Val Gardena – the epitome of the grand Dolomites, a big draw for tourists from all over the world – offers charming and varied scenery in summer and winter alike.
S. Cristina, a small and pretty alpine village, lies 1428 m above sea level between the two villages of Ortisei and Selva and is protected by the majestic towers of Sassolungo.
Those who stay at the Alpenhotel Plaza, will have Sassolungo right in front of their eyes – a truly marvellous view! Thanks to its central location, the house is an ideal starting point to explore and stroll through S. Cristina. In addition, the ski lifts of the Sellaronda and Gardenaronda ski circuits can be reached quickly and comfortably. Here in S. Cristina you can also find the finish schuss of the world-famous Saslong World Cup downhill run.
The Alpenhotel Plaza is a real family hotel. "To feel good straightaway", that is our motto. The atmosphere is cosy, the furnishing features native woods and combines alpine with elegant designs, and the Schenk host family are naturally warm and friendly.
With its warm and friendly atmosphere the Alpenhotel Plaza is a real home from home. Here you can relax, idle away, savour food and drink, let yourself be pampered and enjoy your holiday to the full. This means that you shouldn’t miss out on the comprehensive sports programme either. Skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, tobogganing or hiking in the snow in winter and walking, hiking in alpine pastures and the mountains as well as cycling in the summer are all on offer against the backdrop of the breathtaking mountains of the Dolomites.
In winter the Schenk family organizes a guided ski trip with ski instructor and a romantic torchlight walk to the nearby Fischburg castle.
In summer guided walks and hikes, mountain bike trips, Nordic Walking tours and a barbeque for families will be organised in turns.
If you want to treat yourself to something special, you can wonderfully relax in the 250 square metre spa area. There you can enjoy the spa pool with waterfall and water displays, a Finnish sauna, a Turkish steam bath, an organic flax sweat bath, an infrared cabin, a Kneipp water treading pool, a water paradise and theme showers.
