Vegan Italy Hotel | Paradiso Pure Living in the Dolomites | Alexander Spögler
Description
In today’s episode, we’re heading to the breathtaking Italian Dolomites to chat with Alexander (Alex) Spögler, co-owner of Paradiso Pure Living — a truly pioneering vegan hotel nestled high in the mountains.
Alex shares the remarkable story of how his family transformed a traditional alpine hotel into one of Italy’s foremost fully vegan establishments — a journey that blends sustainability, art, fine dining, and a deep respect for nature.
We’ll explore what it takes to run a plant-based hotel in a region famous for its meat-centric cuisine, the philosophy behind its success, and how Paradiso and its sister properties — La Vimea and Agrivilla I Pini — are helping reshape the future of conscious hospitality.
