- Richard (9/5): A friendly and welcoming place! - Oscar and his team were very welcoming and friendly and made us feel right at home. The rooms were comfortable and there was plenty of parking. We stayed here and drove ~30 mins to Val Gardena ski area each day. The food in the evening was very good also with options for pizza at a local sports bar and a couple of local super markets.
- Sandra (9/5): Fijne plek voor prachtige skivakantie - Rustig dorp en toch niet ver van prachtige skigebieden. Heel vriendelijke mensen die je echt een welkom gevoel geven.
- Jose Maria (9/5): Bien para visitar de paso los Dolomítas - El personal muy servicial. El edificio es antiguo pero muy bien conservado y restaurado. El cuarto de baño, por ejemplo, estaba muy bien actualizado.
Muy fácil para aparcar.
El desayuno correcto. Nada

Oskar (I believe the owner) and the waiter were friendly and made us feel comfortable. There is a restaurant in the hotel and it was affordable and delicious. Parking may be a bit difficult; we had to parallel park on the street.

- Matteo (8/5): -
- Maria Ignez (8/5): Muito bom, recomendo! - A acomodação é bem simples, mas confortável!
O quarto era grande, banheiro bom, só não entendo porque os boxes dos banheiros na Europa são abertos, molha todo o chão! Fora isso estava tudo muito bom, atendimento excelente, café da manhã gostoso, com pães feitos artesanalmente, a localização é excelente, bem no centrinho de Laion, gostamos bastante! nada, estava tudo bom

- Nathan (10/5): Just book it you won’t regret it! - Great food, super cute and comfy room, perfect town, but the best part was the staff! Oskar was so kind with our chaotic 18 month old daughter, gave us a super hiking recommendation, and was just generally a very good host. Highly recommend!
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Lovely village inn, attentive staff, spotless. Really appreciated Oscar who made us feel at home.
- Kristan (10/5): - Absolutely spotless accommodation, very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend this place for a few nights in the middle of the beautiful Italian dolomites. I can't say more good things about the staff...went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable and memorable.
- Lara (9/5): - Roberto était adorable, très gentil, disponible, professionnel, aux petits soins, merci à lui
Très bon restaurant, meilleurs plats de notre séjour dans les Dolomites
Jolie chambre en bois Isolation phonique très moyenne de la chambre malheureusement, calme relatif
- julie (10/5): -
- Diane (10/5): - Fantastic find. Modern rooms and fabulous restaurant with local fare and friendly service. So happy to have found this little gem.
- sunni (8/5): -
- vistato (9/5): - La posizione e la gentilezza dello staff
- Jeannette (10/5): - Wunderbare Gastgeber, sehr gute Lage um die Dolomiten und das Südtirol zu erkunden. Gute Küche und schönes Frühstücksbuffet. Auch unsere Hunde waren willkommen und es hat in der Umgebung sehr schöne Rundwanderungen. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
- Bernd (9/5): Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt dort! - Der Wirt Oskar und die ganze Familie ist super nett und behält auch bei voller Gaststube die Ruhe und Übersicht.
Essen ist sehr gut!
Schönes Zimmer mit Balkon.
- lysaelle (9/5): agréable - BEL ETABLISSEMENT PROPRE AGREABLE NOURRITURE CORRECTE Une serveuse était très sympa la 1er jour elle nous a dis de garder toujours la même table au restaurant et puis le lendemain quand on a voulu reprendre la table elle nous a jete sans explications, alors que nous avons été toujours très correcte avec elle. c'est dommage.
- Barachini (9/5): -
- Jungkeun (8/5): -
- Carlo (9/5): - very good breakfast hotel has no elevator, it should be clearly stated in booking characteristics
- Rok P. (9/5): -
- Trine Eek (8/5): Supert hotel - Hyggelig og hjelpsomt personell. Pene og rene rom. Fin beliggenhet, lett og komme seg med buss fra Lajen og inn til Val Gardena, som er et perfekt utgangspunkt for flotte turer.
- Kalayanee (10/5): The best place we’d stayed in our trip. - Nice staff. Large beautiful clean room +bathroom. Best breakfast with lots of selection. Strong WiFi. A bit far from attractions in Ortisei (about 15-18 minutes drive). But the drive was enjoyable with Mountain views.
- Andrea (10/5): Exceptional -
- Line (8/5): Great stay - We had a lovely stay at this guesthouse. It’s located in a very cozy and friendly town in good proximity to Ortisei and hiking opportunities. The staff is great. Always smiling and helpful. Breakfast was good and the room was nice and clean. The restaurant at the guesthouse has pretty decent food, and there is a supermarked a short walk away. Would definer come back if we visit the Dolomites and this area again :)
- Ruhat (8/5): Friendly staff, average but comfy room, good time spent - View from room is marvelous. All in all the room is comfy, nice and clean. The staff is very friendly. Guided tours start from a close point from the place. There is a 22kwh electric car charging station 20 meters from the place, There was not any table in the room although there was enough space for it. We had to work a little, it would have been easier if we could sit down instead of laying in the bed with our laptops.
- Seray (10/5): Exceptional -
- Josie (10/5): - Beautiful hotel in a small town in the Val Gardena area. Friendly and courteous reception and a very nice breakfast.
- Sammun (10/5): - Walkable
- Igor (10/5): - Hotel was very clean and SO cute! Beds were extremely comfortable, not hard like all the other beds in Italy!
This town was absolutely stunning! Everyone was so nice! Felt like we were part of the locals. Not very touristy. The best way to end a long trip to Italy going though all the busy areas first. Oscar hosted us with great hospitality! He was the last one to close up (and we stayed up late) and the first one up with breakfast all set up! Made sure our stay was amazing! Thank you Oscar! We will definitely book again when we come to visit Italy.
- Cristian (10/5): - My wife and I stayed here and we were very pleased. The staff were very kind and friendly. The breakfast was delicious. Everything tasted very fresh, especially the yogurt—the best we have tried. The rooms were very comfortable and the little town was quite peaceful and charming. We would come back!
- Sebastian (10/5): Beautiful hotel with great food - Beautiful hotel with cedar wood in the rooms, stunning view from balcony. Great food, and very nice staff. Lajen is perfectly situated for visiting mountain area and cities in the region Nothing. Maybe having a sauna would be nice
- Thomas (10/5): Séjour confortable et paisible - hôtel très confortable - super literie - des employés très gentils, serviables et disponibles
je recommande :)
- Hamza (10/5): Very quiet village but far from Ortsey village - Mr. Oskar & Roberf were at the peak of ethics and helpfulness to all guests in the hotel as well as the cleanliness and tranquility in this area I booked this area to get away from the Ortiz Castle and I did not know the way to the castle. It was difficult and the roads are narrow in the mountains, but it was a unique experience.
- John (10/5): Outstanding stay with incredible hospitality - Wonderful stay in an outstanding small hotel, in a quiet village, set amongst magnificent scenery. Oscar and Roberto showed us fantastic service and hospitality during our stay, including two excellent meals in the restaurant. Highly recommended. Nothing
- Oren (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Great facilities, very clean and cozy.
Amazing food.
Most of all, staff Oscar, Roberto, and Danka were very helpful and always pleasant and supporting. You must be doing it right as we had an awesome stay with you. Thank you!
- Andreja (10/5): Exceptional - Location above the valley is great. Friendly stuff, good food. Everything ok.
- Josef (10/5): - Alles bestens!
- Iva (8/5): Very good - I liked the room and bathroom Meals, breakfast and dinner
- Sharon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kathy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sergiy (10/5): - Great location, staff, convenience and homemade food
- Alyssa (9/5): Nice stay in quiet town - Nice room. Half board dinner was very good and filling. Staff was kind. Parking was a bit of an issue and we had to find somewhere else to park in town.
- Ying Xin (10/5): - The corner room has mountain view but it can be slightly noisy as we need to open the window for better ventilation. The staff are friendly too and they helped us to keep the yogurt as my dog needs to take yogurt for breakfast daily. Thank you!
- Lydia (10/5): - Lovely property and staff, super clean and comfortable
- Emel (8/5): Such a price/performance place! - The staff was so kind, in fact amazing. We booked half pension and the dinner was perfect! It was a starter, a primi as well as a secondi + dessert per person! There were a lot of options in the menu and the portions were really huge. We enjoyed a lot the dinner. The breakfast was also good. The Sud Tirol channel was also interesting played on tv in rooms. It could just be the weird floor noise that we guessed coming from bathroom counter as you walk in the bathroom. It might be that it wasn’t positioned adequately.
- Louis (10/5): - Excellent hotel and service
- Peter (8/5): Very good - Food was well prepared, staff were eager to please, and the room was spacious and inviting. Laion/Lajen was a treat. Staff struggled with English, but tried very hard to communicate. The Booking.com listing is entirely in English, but Amenities states that only German and Italian are spoken, as we belatedly discovered. The language limitations should be made more evident in the listing.
- Joanna (6/5): Not as good as it was - Convenient in the area. Quiet location. Parking outside. Not as good as our previous visit. We booked half board as before, but last time we could take items from the main menu for a supplement and the food was good. This time we had a set menu option only and when we asked about taking something from the main menu the response was just “I don’t know anything about that”. The set menu options were not good. Staff seemed more rushed and much less friendly. The price was also significantly more.
- Martina (8/5): -
Note negative: Di questi tempi lasciare la bottiglia dell'acqua non finita della sera prima vicino alla finestra del tuo tavolo per apparecchiarla la mattina e la sera dopo senza sapere se qualcuno può averci fatto qualsiasi cosa visto che aperta non ci sembra un ottima idea, il risparmio fino ad un certo punto
Altra nota negativa, non abbiamo avuto nemmeno un caffè offerto dalla casa, tutto pagato fino all'ultimo centesimo

- Gibson (10/5): Exceptional -
- Charles (10/5): Perfect location for the region, Val Gardena, all! - Everything! Oscar and the entire staff seemed to be everywhere all at once, very friendly and welcoming team! Can't think of anything! Great property and location,

La chambre très propre et salle de bain tres spacieuse et moderne .
Le petit déjeuner très varié ,avec d’excellents produits .
- Paul (8/5): Very good -
- Joanna (8/5): Excellent simple little inn - Excellent food at a very reasonable price - we had half board, comfy beds, welcoming owner and staff. Parking right outside (but not a lot of spaces). The lighting in the room was a bit minimal, but we didn’t spend much time in it so it didn’t matter.
- Sonja (10/5): Eccezionale - Eccezionale!!!
Albergo super funzionale, carino e location nel centro di Laion..super vicino a tutto..
il sig Oscar è una persona super accogliente e ci fa veramente sentire a casa.. tutto lo staff è cosi! Camera metratura giusta, moderna, calda, pulita! E poi la cena non avevo programmato la mezza pensione perché non mangio molto però consiglio al 100% (cervo come non mangiavo da un po’) super mercato Despar a 2 min a piedi.
Tornerò appena possibile

- Verified traveler (10/5): Tutto bene - Hotel situato in un paesino di montagna, tutto bene nel complesso. Unica nota negativa: colazione con poca scelta.
Il parcheggio si trova al di fuori su strada pubblica.
- Agathe (8/5): Un bon séjour à Laion - Chambre et hôtel propre. Le personnel est très agréable. Un +++ pour le monsieur qui tient l‘accueuil et le restaurant, on aura bien rigolé avec lui . Chaque jour un nouveau menu est proposé au restaurant. Nous recommandons cet hôtel pour une escapade dans les Dolomites.
- Sebastià (10/5): A charming place in an extraordinary region - Highly recommended! A charming place, hosted by extremely pleasant owners who will do everything possible to make your stay enjoyable. We had a great time in Alto Adige and Gasthof Sur Sonne was definitely a plus to our stay. Thank you once again!
- Emilia (10/5): - Nice renovated room!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Gunstige ligging in dorp. Keurige ruime kamer met veel hout. Glazen schuifdeur tussen slaap- en badgedeelte. Prettig waren de houten jalouzieën om de warmte of het licht tegen te houden. Vriendelijke gastheer. We hadden een heel ruim hoekbalkon met houten stoelen.
- mouvet (10/5): Très bien - Bon accueil dans cet hôtel rénové récemment. Bien situé dans le village et proches des chemins de randonnées et des dolomites. Bonne cuisine familiale.bon rapport qualité prix
- Caroline (8/5): Toller Kurzurlaub - Sehr netter Empfang, Frühstücksbuffet ok, tolles Zimmer mit riesigem Balkon...
- Joachim (10/5): Wohlfühlhotel - Sehr schöner Gasthof. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Schitterende omgeving, heel aardige bediening, goede bedden!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Schöne moderne eingerichtete Zimmer. Netter Empfang und freundliches Personal.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Propreté Accueil du personnel bien situé pour Lac de Garde et Vérone Chambre spacieuse
- Arnold L. (10/5): Dem Himmel ein Stückchen näher! - Konkurrenzlos, perfekt, vorbildlich, vollst empfehlenswert.
- Arlene (10/5): - Very good stay for 1 night, with excellent view from our room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Hatten Zi.6, direkt über der Küche. Das war ganz schön laut... Ansonsten gibt es nichts zu beanstanden...
- Nicole (2/5): Bad Business - Where do I begin?? First with the good. The room was nice and modern. The shower was spacious and clean. Location is nice and in the countryside. Now here is why I give a 1 star. Upon check in, we encountered two younger teenage boys at the desk playing computer games. We had to ask the bartender to check us in. She said she needed to keep our passports and threw them in an unlocked draw. She then gave us a keychain with no key to get into the room and then blamed us for no key. During the evening, you can hear everything in the restaurant below late into the evening. The morning of checkout, we sat down to eat a roll and yogurt and were told that we weren’t allowed to continue to eat at the table we were sitting because it was a big table. The restaurant was practically empty. Bad business! When we went to checkout, I started packing the car with our luggage and a man outside was yelling at me to move the car because he needed the space. This was the place I was told to park in by the hotel. What a mess. The location was great but I suggest to find somewhere else to stay. The place is being run by underage teenagers and a clueless owner.
- NN (6/5): - Nice location in a small village. Got an old fashioned room, so better don‘t trust the pictures.
- chiarelli (8/5): Accoglienza e cordialità del sentirsi come a casa. - molto bello, è stato come essere accolti da vecchi cari amici che non vedi da tanto tempo. Camera bellissima, molto silenziosa, nuova perchè penso sia stato ristrutturato da poco, quindi tutto legno caldo e molto comfort, bagno con pavimento riscaldato, una vera chicca. Il titolare Sig. Oscar è stato davvero molto accogliente nei ns. confronti e Il personale ha avuto sempre la massima disponibilità , per non parlare della cordialità. Cibo ottimo e pure la posizione ottima, perchè da Laion ci siamo mossi comodamente verso Merano, Bressanone, Ortisei. Pensiamo di ritornare sicuramente per altri week end perchè ci è piaciuto molto e siamo stati molto molto bene.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Albergo confortevole in tipica struttura del luogo, molto accogliente e ottimo punto di partenza per spostarsi nei vari paesini tipici
- Giovanni (10/5): - Ottimo servizio e titolare molto simpatico. Gli appartamenti molto spaziosi e confortevoli. Albergo un po' fuori mano ma raggiungibile facilmente. Punto di partenza per tutti i mercatini compreso Innsbruck.
