Guests Reviews
US Army General Robert McCall who was stationed in the
Valbruna area in 1945, June 2008
"Dear Marco: I wanted to let you know how much we
enjoyed our stay at the Valbruna Inn. We felt very much
at home there. The facilities were great. I was amazed
to find all the modern conveniences in a village inn.
Everyone enjoyed the theme rooms, the fact that each is
different. I think you noticed how much we enjoyed the
garden in back. Some of us seem to be there constantly.
It was a great place to relax together. The library was
also a very convenient place to relax after a hard day
of hiking or sightseeing. We were all very comfortable.
Mirella and the whole staff were just fabulous. Anna,
Manuela, Mirella and everyone were so pleasant and helpful.
The worked hard to make sure our every need was satisfied,
immediately. I was especially impressed by the young lady
who served our breakfast. She was so young, pleasant and
eager to please that it was a joy to see her in the morning,
even before coffee. By the way, the breakfast was excellent
too. We were all impressed with the attention to detail,
as when you came to check on us at the restaurants, just
to make sure everything was perfect. You don't get that
type of attention very often. Thank you and all the staff
at Valbruna for making our stay so enjoyable. I am sure
some of us will be back in coming years, although not
in the number we had this year. I heard Beth telling a
friend the other day, "If you ever want to spend a vacation
in the Italian Alps, stay at the Valbruna Inn." I also
enjoyed see Davide again. I have attached a photo of him
taken at Ratification Day in Gorizia last September. I
intended to give it to him but forgot. Please pass it
on. Best regards to you, Amy and the girls.
Ciao! A piu tardi!"

Karen Brown's Italy Hotels 2009
"Although Marco Tonazzi (a professional skier for
20 years) lives in Vail, Colorado, with his beautiful
wife and two little girls, he frequently returns to the
hamlet of Valbruna in to the northeast corner of Italy
where he learned to ski as a child. He so loved this picturesque,
traditional village, majestically-framed by the Julian
Alps, that he, alongwith two brothers and a group of life-long
friends, bought a long-neglected property. Working with
a skilled architect, they totally renovated the building
and created a charming, chalet-style hotel. It opened
in 2002 and is a real gem. This is not an elaborate, sumptuos
hotel, but rather a small, cozy, country village inn brimming
with personality and unsurpassed, old-fashioned hospitality.
The bar, which is the heart of the inn, is home to all
the locals who gather here each day for a glass of wine,
a cup of coffee, or just to chat. On the ground floor
there is a pretty dining room, a cozy breakfast room with
antique paneling, and a library with a collection of rare
books on mountaineering and history. Each guestroom is
unique in decor and size, but all are extremely inviting
and ooze top notch quality in every detail. If you want
to splurge, ask for the Jof Fuart-a large, attractively
decorated guestroom with a fireplace, beamed ceiling,
and a dazzling view of the mountain peaks."
" I wanted to let you know how much Katie and I genuinely
enjoyed our stay at the Valbruna Inn. Staying at the Valbruna
Inn was a very special experience for us. It is difficult
to know where to begin to describe a place that is inviting,
warm, relaxed, very nicely designed and appointed. The
staff at the Inn treated us as family. Their recommendations
for activities and dining were superb. I will not attempt
to describe the views from the Inn and surrounding areas.
They must be experienced. I am pleased to recommend the
Valbruna Inn to anyone that would like a relaxing vacation
in the Northern Italian mountains. The Valbruna Inn is
a very special place. Kind regards" Andrew A. Karow
