Overview

Villa Emma is a family-run alpine hotel located at the quieter southern end of Canazei, around a 12-minute walk from both the village centre and the ski lifts. For added convenience, a ski bus stops right outside the hotel, making it easy to reach the slopes without carrying your equipment.

The hotel has been managed by the Aldrighetti family since 1967, and their long-standing, attentive hospitality gives the place a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. This personal touch is a defining feature of the stay.

Rooms are styled in a traditional alpine theme, with plenty of natural wood creating a cosy, mountain feel. After skiing, guests can unwind in the comfortable bar and lounge area before enjoying dinner.

Evenings focus on local Ladin cuisine, with dishes such as pasta, pastries, and polenta-based specialities served in a relaxed setting, reflecting the regional character of the Dolomites.

About Canazei di Fassa

Canazei is on the Sella Ronda circuit, giving 175km of pistes to cover. Most of it caters for intermediates and, with the aid of improved lifts, the whole domain is easily accessible. Canazei itself is quite large, but maintains its charm and traditional appeal. The local skiing is easy, but all the slopes rely on one lift from the village and this can create queues. There is one run back down, but that can often be closed due to a lack of snow. The village itself has decent accommodation (hotels and chalets), a good range of shops, bars, clubs and restaurants - après-ski can be lively. One slight failing of the smaller Italian resorts is a lack of foreign language spoken in ski schools and Canazei is no exception. The childcare available is also fairly minimal.

Overall, Canazei is a less well-known resort that offers good lower ability skiing on the Sella Ronda and plenty to do off the slopes. Verona has the nearest airport, two and a half hours away.
