30 years of Hotel Saligari – An history of passion and hospitality

A Special Month: December and the Beginning of a 30-Year Journey
For us, December is not just any month. On December 1, 1994, Mario Saligari took over the management of HOTEL MIRALAGO – DANCING LA BUSSOLA, a large property in urgent need of renovation.
From 1 to 3: The Renovation Journey**
Originally a 1-star hotel with shared bathrooms and 20 rooms, the first renovation took place in the early 2000s, adding private bathrooms to all rooms and introducing new services, elevating the hotel to a 3-star rating.
Big Evenings and Exceptional Guests
The hotel, which already existed, was also known for its attached dancing venue. With Mario’s arrival, the established programming continued, offering lively evenings of traditional dance and hosting iconic artists from the 60s, such as the legendary Peppino di Capri, the Casadei Orchestra, Ricchi e Poveri, Equipe 84, Renato dei Profeti, and Riccardo Fogli – who praised the atmosphere, the warm hospitality, the cuisine, and the quality of the olive oil used (being from Tuscany, he knew what he was talking about!). Sandro Giacobbe and many others also graced our evenings.
Evolution and Transformation: Banquets and Major Events
Thanks to Mario’s professional training as a chef, the restaurant offering significantly improved, and the dancing hall was transformed into a large banquet hall, capable of hosting up to 300 people.
The Birth of La Trela: A Cozy Place in 2002
In 2002, La Trela was born – a unique venue where stone and rock take center stage, reminiscent of typical mountain environments used to store food cool during the summer. The goal was to create a warm, welcoming, and private space for our guests.
The Second Renovation: Innovation and Accessibility in 2019
In 2019, the property underwent a second, radical renovation: all thermal and plumbing systems were updated, an elevator was installed, beds and mattresses were replaced with Simmons beds (210 cm long), and the bathrooms were renovated to meet future 4-star requirements. The addition of the elevator and rooms designed for disabled access made the facility accessible to all.
Today: A Venue for Unforgettable Events
Today, we are one of the most renowned locations in the area, especially known for hosting events, particularly weddings.
Passion for Hospitality: The Heart of Our Work for 30 Years
Our passion for hospitality and dining has always been the cornerstone of our work, and it still sets us apart. For 30 years, attention to detail has been our way of making every experience unforgettable.
Another of our strong points is certainly the panoramic view: we strive to convey the beauty of our surroundings to our guests as well.
30 Years of Success: The Celebration with the Opening of Involt
We wanted to celebrate our 30 years of activity with the recent opening of our wine bar, Involt.
In these 30 years, we’ve gone through many changes, faced challenges, but also achieved numerous successes. Your smiles have always been our greatest source of satisfaction. We thank you for your continued support over the years and for believing in us and our establishment.
