Overview: hotel description: Hotel Castor description

As soon as you walk into the Hotel Castor you'll get a warm welcome. The Castor's have been running the hotel for four generations and greet each guest as though they know them.

Once a week there's live music here and the place really comes alive. When it comes to dinner, you'll be well-fuelled for your week in the mountains. Enjoy a hearty Italian, four-course meal in the authentic mountain setting of the hotel restaurant.

The Extra Mile

The Castor family provide a homely base for your winter holiday, as well as some extras that make for fantastic, memorable experiences; from exploring the back-country with a professional alpine guide, yoga and pilates courses to local wine tasting (all payable locally).
