Breithorn Hotel: the origin of alpine hospitality

At Breithorn, hospitality is an experience that goes beyond a simple stay.
It’s a journey to the very roots of mountaineering legend and the history of the Ayas Valley, a legacy that, since 1903, has evolved while keeping its primordial soul intact.

The mountain's ancient beat

Since 1903, Breithorn has been the place where the mountain’s ancient beat merges with an exclusive experience.
It’s one of the first hotels in the Aosta Valley, a charming retreat, a pioneer that marked the beginning of a new era for alpine hospitality.
At the foot of Monte Rosa, it welcomes you with the grace of a house that has many stories to tell, a silent witness to when mountaineering took its first steps.
Here, the mountain is considered an horizon to reach, a place of freedom, dreams, and truth.

A living legend

Born from the vision of three brothers, Breithorn has been the true benchmark for hospitality, guardian of a living heritage.
Within its rooms, artists, travelers, and illustrious personalities like Toscanini have left their mark, helping to weave its legend.
Even during decades of silence, starting in the 1970s, its charm remained unchanged, making it an ideal cinematic setting.

The rebirth

In the early 2000s, a skilful renovation restored the Breithorn Hotel to its original splendour, preserving its authentic soul.
It was a conscious decision that paved the way for a new chapter in hospitality, where respect for the past meets a vision for the future.
This rebirth has allowed the Breithorn to continue its legendary story, maintaining its unique essence intact.

The new project

Today, a group of five friends passionately look after the Breithorn, breathing new life into its hospitable spirit.
An ancestral thread connects them to the past and the creation of tomorrow: some with deep roots in the Ayas Valley, others drawn by an archetypal intuition. All have chosen to reconnect with the deepest origins, creating an exclusive, authentic, and heartfelt hospitality.
Every dish, every detail, every gesture reveals the care and warmth of this legendary welcome.

Tailored welcome: a return to origins

Entering Breithorn means reconnecting with the deepest roots of the place, breathing its history, and rediscovering the pleasure of a sincere welcome, tailor-made for you.
Every area of the hotel – from the lounges that have welcomed generations of alpinists, to the rooms that have safeguarded dreams and repose, through to the wooden details holding decades of stories – envelops you with the quiet warmth of a timeless refuge.
Here, every stay is an immersion in the very origin of Alpine beauty.
