Lagorai - Hotel

The food was good when I’d eaten there à la carte before, which makes this lunch experience especially disappointing. My wife and I asked for the daily menu, but the dining room was mostly full of workers on their lunch break, and we ordered the same dishes they were having. We had two still waters, two salads, pasta with meat sauce, a lemon veal cutlet with vegetables, grilled turkey with vegetables, three coffees, and a ginseng. The bill came to 64 euros, with everything charged à la carte. I visit Primiero often, and elsewhere in the area a daily menu with a first course, second course, water, and coffee is usually 14-15 euros per person. It’s hard for me to believe regular lunch customers here are spending more than 30 euros each. Being treated this way as tourists means I won’t come back. Readers can draw their own conclusions.

We ended up leaving without eating, so I can’t comment on the food. The staff were rude, and the whole stop took 45 minutes, with €3 spent on a bottle of water. My partner and I arrived without a reservation for lunch on a workday. We were warned there’d be a wait, then seated after about ten minutes. For the next 35 minutes, staff kept passing by to say they’d take our order soon. When I asked when, I was told they’d already said it would take a while, there was only one person in the kitchen, and they didn’t know what was still available. After I complained and we decided to go, they sternly pointed out that reservations were required, as written on the wall. Why seat us, then? A bit more kindness and customer service would have helped. There are better places to spend your time.

For a peaceful stay, this is the place. The cleanliness and the extra care from Mrs. Fabiola, who pampered us, made a real difference, and her husband’s cooking deserves credit too.

The Micheli family are so friendly that it feels priceless. Dinner is affordable, simple, and really tasty, including the cod and tosela with polenta. Breakfast is good too, with plenty of savory choices for sandwiches during the day. The one star rating for Lagorai seems low compared with other hotels. The style and rooms do feel like the 1980s, but they’re spotless.
