Staying at Chateau Soldà in Vigo di Fassa
Chateau Soldà is a holiday house rather than a hotel. Expedia lists it as a “historic château” in the Dolomites, with mountain views, a private garden and Wi-Fi, and describes the property as a self-catering home: it has a full kitchen, four bathrooms and a garden. Beyond that the listing gives little background, and no Wikipedia article about the building was found, so this page stays with what the listing states and with the village around it.
The kitchen is equipped with a hob, a dishwasher, a fridge, a microwave, a toaster and a kettle for coffee or tea, plus cookware, crockery and cutlery. The bathrooms have showers. Bed linen and towels are provided, and there are a hairdryer, an iron and ironing board, a washing machine and a television. Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, and the house has central heating.
Four bathrooms suggest a roomy house suited to a family or a group of friends, but Expedia does not give the number of bedrooms or guests in the text used here, so check the listing before you book. Parking is available on site. Smoking is not allowed and pets are not accepted.

The history of Vigo di Fassa, the village around Chateau Soldà
- Middle Ages – The first written records of Vigo di Fassa appear, as for almost all villages in the Fassa valley; traces of human presence go back to the Palaeolithic.
- Late Middle Ages – The village grows steadily and absorbs neighbouring San Giovanni; a monumental barn beside the parish church survives from this period.
- 1549 – The great bell of the church of San Giovanni, cast this year, still rings today.
- 1860 – The building of the Dolomites road brings the first tourists, mostly from Austria; hotels and, later, mountain refuges follow.
- 1914–1918 – During the First World War the village lies on the front line; after the war the valley passes to Italy.
- 1921 – A devastating fire hits the village.
- 2016–2018 – A referendum approves the merger of Vigo di Fassa with Pozza di Fassa, creating the municipality of San Giovanni di Fassa (Sèn Jan).
Vigo di Fassa (Vich in Ladin) is a village of about 1,250 inhabitants on the right bank of the Avisio, set above the valley road. Its parish church of the Nativity of St John the Baptist may go back to the 10th century, and the Gothic church of San Giovanni, with its tall spire, houses 16th-century frescoes. Today the village belongs to the association I borghi più belli d’Italia and is both a summer hiking centre and a ski resort. The facts on this page about the village come from Wikipedia; the listing itself gives no history of the house.

Where Chateau Soldà is: Vigo di Fassa in the Dolomites
Vigo di Fassa lies in the Fassa valley (Val di Fassa), in north-eastern Trentino, in a municipality that has been called San Giovanni di Fassa since 2018.
