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.
Get ready for a multi-sensory journey!

The snow of Trentino, closer than you think.
A ski holiday designed for the whole family, combining fun-filled days on the slopes with moments of pure relaxation at Elgus Nature Retreat.
The Brentonico Plateau is the ideal destination for enjoying the mountains with children: a family-friendly ski area where you can ski at your own pace and turn every day on the snow into a special experience to share together.
And with our Family Ski Week, a 5-day ski pass is already included for every member of the family.
The offer includes 7 nights with ¾ Luxury Board, access to the Elgus Spa areas and a 5-day ski pass per person. After a day on the slopes, the children can keep having fun in the Family Spa, pools and on the water slides, while Mum and Dad enjoy some well-deserved relaxation.
7 nights + 5 days of skiing + Spa: the ski week where every member of the family gets the holiday they deserve.
Snow for them, relaxation for you, 5 nights for the price of 4
The snow vacation that pleases the whole family.
The days begin outdoors among snow, skiing, and adventures on Monte Baldo, and continue in the warmth of the new Elgus wellness world. While the little ones have fun in the new Family Spa, between indoor and outdoor pools, water slides, and family buosauna, mom and dad can treat themselves to a few hours of true relaxation.
And when dusk falls? The children still want to play: waiting for them are Miniclub and entertainment. For the grown-ups, on the other hand, it is the moment to go up to the rooftop to discover the Sky Forest Adult Spa, between an infinity pool, sauna, pine-scented steam bath, silence, and lit fireplaces.
Included in the stay:
A winter getaway made of silence, fresh air, and time entirely yours.
A day on the snow, a stroll through the winter scenery, or simply the pleasure of having no plans. Then you return to the Elgus and ascend to the rooftop.
Here awaits the new Sky Forest Adult Spa: a small forest suspended between sky and mountains, with an infinity pool, Finnish sauna, cedar steam bath, and relaxation areas.
For couples, one of the new Love Rooms completes the experience with a scenographic fireplace, private balcony, and a cervical waterfall shower. For solo travelers, the Elgus becomes the perfect place.
Included in the stay:
A private pool just for you, a personalized wellness treatment, and a gourmet dinner: the hotel's most exclusive experience comes to life in our Secret Pool Room
