HISTORY
OF THE MIRAMONTI HOTEL
Miramonti Hotel was built in 1927 in Pove del Grappa (VI)
with stones coming from the near caves of marble called “PRIARE”,
that’s because it was conceived right at the feet
of the mountain. This is why the hotel is called Miramonti.
At the beginning the hotel had only 10 rooms, actually
there are 15 from where our guests can admire the panoramic
view of the mountain ,valley and of the territory of Bassano
del Grappa
In the past people here found something for which it was
really worth lodging at the Miramonti :healthy air
The hotel has always been in the forefront and abreast
with times:
The first fixed phone of the village arrived here and a
lot of people came to phone their relatives in America or
the numerous emigrants in foreign countries.
They queued up for hour to talk at least for a moment to
their families.
In the ’50 and ’60
Miramonti became an important point of social aggregation
to eat, lodge and dance ,in
fact in the ground floor there was a known dancing place
where many people find the pleasure to dance and have a
goodtime.
Another
historical moment that Miramonti didn’t miss
was the advent of the television.
In fact here arrived the first television of the village,
so people came here to watch “carousel” or some
programs in black and white.
Later, the restaurant of Miramonti began to have always
more success..
Many people from Venice and Padua loved to come here to
taste the traditional food of the Venetian poor cousine
such as “Pasta and Beans” and the” boiled
healthy beet greens of field.”
Another important historical moment was when Mr Cavalli
became the owner of this hotel. He is an entrepreneur who
was born in Pove del Grappa and was emigrated as many other
Venetian people.
After 30 years of life and job in Milan, he returned in
Pove and decided to restore and make more beautiful this
old hotel, that was a place full of memories for him.
