Peaks of the Dolomites above the forestDolomites ยท Italy
Luxury hotels in the Dolomites.
Pink granite at sunset, design hotels at two thousand meters and the quiet end of Italian luxury.
The Brief
The mountains are Italy's best kept season.
The Dolomites run two performances a year. Winter brings the Sellaronda circuit and ski in ski out silence, summer brings hiking light that photographers plan years around. The new generation of hotels here, built in wood, glass and altitude, has quietly become the most interesting in the country.
Alta Badia and Val Gardena are the core, connected lift country with Michelin density unusual for any mountain range. Cortina d'Ampezzo plays the social card. The Plose and Odle side is where the silence lives.
The Addresses
Six houses above the tree line.
Insider Notes
Altitude first, town second.
Decide sunrise or nightlife. The plateau and forest hotels put you inside the light shows, enrosadira turning the walls pink at dusk, but dinner is the hotel. Cortina gives you restaurants and shops, then a drive to the cable cars. In winter, ski in ski out at altitude wins.
Summer here answers the sea. Clients increasingly run Venice into three mountain nights, two hours by car, water to rock. For pure treatment travel, compare with our Italian spa hotels index, which the Dolomites dominate.
The Luxury.it Perspective
The Dolomites are proof that Italian luxury works at minus ten. Wood, wine and a horizon of stone.
