Vision I in the awareness

Vigilius is a place of pause, shaped by calm, awareness, balance and respect. Our vision is to meet expectations mindfully and with care, guided by quality, continuity and responsibility for what endures.

For us, hospitality means warmth and authenticity, people who genuinely enjoy making others happy. Simplicity is our luxury, focusing on what truly matters, letting go, and being fully present with oneself. And coscienza, awareness, is our compass in our relationship with nature, with materials, with energy and with everything that gives life meaning.

Sustainability

The foundation of the vigilius mountain resort is its ecological mindset. The promise to nature is visible in every detail of Italy’s first ClimateHouse A–certified hotel and can be felt at all times through the use of natural materials. Despite its exposed location, the building’s construction ensures a very low heating energy demand. From the very beginning, it was clear that heating would rely on biomass, using wood chips sourced from mountain farmers in the immediate surroundings. This is just one of the many ways in which we act in harmony with our closest environment, creating a symbiosis of modern design, comfort and sustainability.

Architecture I Matteo Thun

The vigilius mountain resort was designed by Matteo Thun as a sustainable mountain hotel in South Tyrol. The architecture consistently follows the landscape of the Vigiljoch, integrating the building discreetly into its natural surroundings. Larch wood, glass, natural stone and clay form the core palette of materials, clearly and functionally connecting the design hotel to its location. The result is a contemporary, reduced architecture that radiates calm and places the spirit of the place at its centre.

Arrival | by cable car

 

The vigilius mountain resort is accessible exclusively by cable car. In just a few minutes, it takes you from Lana up to 1,500 metres above sea level, consciously creating distance from everyday life. The car-free location on the Vigiljoch makes the cable car the central point of arrival and highlights the sustainable character of this boutique hotel in South Tyrol. Arriving here means slowing down, ascending and gaining perspective.
