My Dolomites Stay List: Top Picks

Dolomites Stay:

Alpine splendour defines these emblematic accommodations, where the Dolomites gracefully offer their grandeur. From the understated simplicity of natural interiors to fully alpine immersive surroundings, these six accommodations complete my selection of top favourite stays in the Dolomites.

1: Forestis

Glass windows, an indoor/outdoor pool and two armchairs overlooking mountains.

A wooded area at 1,800 meters borders the great wonder that is Forestis. The minimal, yet profoundly warm and comfortable suites make you feel as if you are in a modern cabin, completely secluded, as they frame the otherworldly alpine views of the Dolomites. The Penthouses and Tower Suites are unlike any other, with their astonishing floor-to-ceiling windows that leave you speechless the moment you walk in. The interiors expand the boundaries of the room, with the fragrant, spruce wood-cladded walls transporting you to the forest outside. The bar and restaurant are also no strangers to this feeling, as the hotel extends its sense of alpine purity and simplicity throughout its interiors, food, and nourishment.
