Hotel San Giacomo becomes Elgus Nature Retreat: a new chapter written by the same family, in the same place, with the same loving care as always. Discover all the latest!
Augusto Girardelli, affectionately called “el Gusto” (the inspiration for our new name), devoted his life to Mt Altissimo – the mountain on which he planted thousands of Swiss stone pines and built this hotel in 1958. Today, following extensive refurbishment, we’ve moved up a category to become 4-star nature retreat.
We owe it all to our grandpa, which is why we decided to dedicate the Elgus Nature Retreat to him and his beloved mountain.
