Good morning to everyone, today I am in Lignano Sabbiadoro together with Augusto Angelo Marin

who manages, along with the family, the Gran Hotel Marin. Good morning Augusto.

Good morning Erika!

Can you please tell me the history of this hotel? When was it built?

It was founded in 1903 by my great grandfather, Angelo, who believed in this project

carrying the bricks directly from Marano and building it slowly and making it become what it is today now

I represent the fourth generation because it has always been handed down from father to son

As for my studies, I attended the faculty of Hotel Management, called Les Roches,

one of the most prestigious in this area, who helped me with this hotel

As for our hotel, we work hard with the Austrian clientele

Our strengths are the wonderful breakfasts, both sweet and salty.

Guests can enjoy chocolate crepes, cream croissants and with handmade jams

and then they can sit on the terrace overlooking the pool and enjoy the fantastic view

I know you have in mind an enlargement, why?

We decided to innovate our hotel even more.

At this time the hotel combines the modern with the old, but in today's time

with more and more demanding customers, we decided to expand the top floor of the facility

Some suites will be built with sauna, whirlpool for two people and emotional shower with a great sea view

A solarium will also be built, where guests can relax and enjoy the panorama.

We will also have a whirlpool for nine to ten peoplecovered with a home roofing with LED lights

The hotel is in a great location, close to the center of Lignano Sabbiadoro but also close to the sea

Exactly Erika, this is another of our strengths

And besides having the sea view, we also have the pool option

Many customers in fact choose us for our pool surrounded by greenery, where they can enjoy

the shade and the cool, despite the warmth.

Speaking about Lignano, why do you think people should choose it as a tourist destination?

Well, let's say that the customer who comes to Lignano has many options

there is the sea, there are swimming pools.

People can have fun in several theme parks, can shop, take part in beach activities

such as water aerobics, group dances, aqua bike

We can't forget the restaurants, where they can taste fish dishes

Even the boat enthusiasts would find a great time here

Perfect, I thank you. We are at Gran Hotel Marin and we are waiting for you.
