The Luxury Resort Aman Rosa Alpina Opens In The Dolomites
Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina A historic mountain retreat, Aman Rosa Alpina sits in the village of San Cassiano among Italy's UNESCO-protected Dolomites, honoring a legacy that spans almost a century while reimagining it for the discerning Aman guest, the hotel is a tribute to luxury Alpine hospitality. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina The hotel's design, led by longtime Aman collaborator renowned architect Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston, was created to promote peach and connection to nature, embracing the Dolomites – in both views and the sense of serenity. As such, there are spacious balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows that offers views of the landscape, and respond to the light of the mountains, while façades clad in timber and accented with dark metal give a contemporary feel. Inside, layers of stone, textured plaster and Italian artisanal detailing bring warmth and tranquility. Each of the hotel's 51 Rooms, Suites and Signature Suites, draws influence from the surrounding landscape, with the summit being the Aman Suite, the largest in the hotel, with two king-bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms with steam showers (one with a soaking tub), a dining area for six and a large south-facing terrace. On the opening, Vlad Doronin, Chairman and CEO of Aman Group, says, 'The opening of Aman Rosa Alpina is the realisation of a vision that has been years in the making.' He continues, 'I first experienced the magic of this property as a guest many years ago and developed a lasting friendship with the Pizzinini family. What started as admiration evolved into a shared ambition – to honour the legacy but also elevate this timeless mountain retreat. With its exceptional location in the heart of the Dolomites, we saw the opportunity to create a sanctuary that reflects both the heritage of the region and the essence of Aman. Rooted in our brand's commitment to timeless design, intuitive service and transformative experiences, Aman Rosa Alpina now begins its next chapter - welcoming guests into a place of peace, privacy and enduring beauty.' Aman Rosa Alpina Mountainscape Aman Rosa Alpina A longstanding symbol Alpine hospitality, the historic hotel, formerly known as Rosa Alpina has been in the Pizzinini family since 1939, with Hugo and Ursula Pizzinini remain at the helm, they say of the new iteration, 'The evolution of hotel into Aman Rosa Alpina marks a meaningful and carefully considered new chapter. As custodians of this beloved mountain retreat, it is a privilege to see it evolve under Aman – a brand that shares our deep reverence for place and commitment to excellence. This partnership allows us to celebrate our family's legacy and three generations of hospitality, while embracing a future shaped by Aman's uncompromising attention to detail and global perspective. Our mission remains the same: to preserve the authenticity and spirit of the region and for guests, past and future, to experience the timeless beauty of the Dolomites.' Aman Rosa Alpina Mountainscape Aman Rosa Alpina Complete with gastronomy led by Executive Chef Gianluca Salvato, the cuisine ranges from traditional Alpine indulgences to Italian specialities, complemented by an extensive wine selection. The Grill offers hearty fare, while Il Salotto serves an all-day menu and transforms into a piano bar at night, and for breakfast there's the Heritage Room. This offering sits alongside the intimate Divino Room, a connoisseur's library designed for exclusive wine experiences and private dinners, and next door is the wood-panelled Cigar Lounge which overlooks the forest courtesy of its floor-to-ceiling windows. Also, an upcoming opening this winter is Akari that'll serve authentic Japanese Shabu Shabu dining. Of course, an Aman wouldn't be an Aman without a dedicated wellness space, and this one covers 1,684 sqm across two levels. It dons seven treatment suites, a spectacular 20m heated outdoor infinity pool plus indoor and family pools, as well as hydrotherapy facilities including a Finnish sauna, steam bath and jacuzzi, outlined by a mountainscape. Hugo Pizzinini, Co-Owner and Managing Director at Aman Rosa Alpina tells us more about this storied property. Felicity Carter: How does Aman Rosa Alpina fit into the brand philosophy while sitting in the Dolomites? Hugo Pizzinini: Aman's ethos has long been about creating sanctuaries that exist in harmony with their surroundings, becoming an extension of the environments, they call home. In following this approach, Aman Rosa Alpina helps guests connect deeply with the Dolomites, experiencing the destination at its most authentic. The hotel has achieved all these things by honouring the region's heritage in many ways – from spa treatments that make use of local herbs to its dining scene which draws on alpine tradition. Of course, Aman sanctuaries are also renowned for their space, peace and privacy, and this is something the Dolomites has naturally in abundance. Our property furthers this experience, harnessing the serenity of the surrounding mountains with muted interiors, in service that is both genuine yet discreet, and through experiences that showcase the very best of the region from a local perspective. Aman Rosa Alpina Mountainscape Aman Rosa Alpina FC: What are your favourite details about the property? HP: One of my favourite details is the tactility of the property's interior, designed to draw the outdoors in through use of natural materials. In doing so, there are an abundance of beautifully textured surfaces, with soft local woods and large slabs of stone creating a real warmth throughout. When you look closer you can almost peel back these layers, as if a mirror image of the mountains that surround. More practically, our Mountain Cabins are another favourite feature that many don't know about it. Belonging to the Pizzinini family, guests can opt to spend the afternoon hiking and then enjoy private dining in their chosen cabin, with a dedicated chef on hand to create a true alpine feast in complete mountain solitude. For me, this is a rare, must-do experience combining both culinary discovery and an adventure in the great outdoors. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina FC: Are there signature experiences here you can't find at any other Aman? HP: More or less all of our experiences are uniquely curated for our location. Only here are guests able to access the Dolomiti Superski region with our bespoke Ski Butler service and enjoy access to our dedicated Ski Lounge, making for the most effortless of winter sports experiences. Only here are they able ascend our via ferrata routes with local mountain guides whose families have called the Dolomites home for centuries. From heli-skiing across remote peaks to private dining in a traditional alpine hut, all of our guest experiences are exclusive to Aman Rosa Alpina guests. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina FC: Tell us about the culinary offering, and any local ingredients or dishes guests should try? HP: The resort's dining scene is really a combination of Aman's global sensibility and the soul of our alpine setting. Guided by Executive Chef Gianluca Salvato (who trained under legendary chef, Norbert Niederkofler), guests begin their day in the Heritage Room with home-baked pastries and, one of my favourite dishes to set you up for a day in the Italian Alps, scrambled eggs with caviar. Throughout the day, they can then choose from a host of venues to suit their mood. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina The Grill is the perfect place to gather with family to enjoy recipes passed down through generations. As an Italian, the Guazzetto all'Italiana (Italian Seafood Stew) is close to my heart. In contrast, Il Salotto provides a laidback, day-to-night dining space for light fare, coffee and cocktails. For me, there is no better place to end the day than here, listening to live music from the piano and sharing a selection of locally sourced cheeses, charcuterie and our chef's own, seasonal jams. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina FC: How do you collaborate with the local community and tap into the culture? HP: Our connection to San Cassiano village and the Alta Badia region is at the heart of everything we do. From working closely with local farmers and artisans to source ingredients and materials, and collaborating with mountain guides, ski instructors and wellness practitioners with generations of experience in the region. These partnerships help bring authenticity to the guest experience and ensure that every day brings with it a new story. Aman Rosa Alpina Aman Rosa Alpina FC: Has the property have anything planned for the rest of the year? In winter 2025, we look forward to welcoming Akari, a Shabu Shabu concept, to our dining scene. We're really excited for it to open and bring a Japanese-inspired contrast to traditional alpine indulgences.

Ather Energy launches ‘Battery as a Service' and new programs to boost EV adoption
By Aman Shukla Published on August 14, 2025, 12:08 IST Ather Energy, India's leading electric two-wheeler manufacturer, has announced three major initiatives aimed at making the transition to electric scooters easier and more accessible for Indian riders. The company has introduced Battery as a Service (BaaS), expanded its Assured Buyback programme, and launched an Extended Comprehensive Warranty (ECW), all designed to address the biggest concerns of potential EV buyers: upfront costs, resale value, and warranty coverage. One of the main barriers to switching to electric vehicles has been the higher upfront cost. To tackle this, Ather Energy now offers Battery as a Service, allowing buyers to pay only for the scooter itself while the battery cost is spread over a monthly usage-based plan. With this model, the Ather Rizta can now be purchased starting at Rs 75,999, while the 450 Series begins at Rs 84,341 in Lucknow, making electric scooters far more accessible. Customers are charged based on their kilometre usage, with the cost of the battery recoverable over three to four years according to individual preference. This setup not only reduces the initial investment but also includes free fast charging for a year at Ather's network of over 3,300 fast chargers nationwide, easing both range anxiety and charging costs. Resale value is another concern for potential EV buyers, and Ather has addressed this with its Assured Buyback programme. Initially launched as a pilot, the programme is now available to a larger customer base. It guarantees up to 60 percent of the scooter's value after three years and up to 50 percent after four years, depending on mileage. This gives buyers a clear understanding of the future worth of their scooter and removes the uncertainty around resale in a rapidly evolving electric vehicle market. To provide complete peace of mind, Ather has also introduced the Extended Comprehensive Warranty for all AtherStack™ Pro customers. This warranty protects the battery and eleven other critical components, including the motor, motor controller, dashboard, and charger, for up to five years or 60,000 kilometres, whichever comes first. While electric scooters already have lower running costs than petrol vehicles, this extended warranty ensures that customers are protected against potentially expensive component replacements throughout their ownership journey.
