The Italian Dolomites are brimming with excellent first-rate hotels. Like other destinations in the Alps, you can expect high standards of hospitality, comfort, and cleanliness.
However, hotels in the Dolomites particularly stand out because of their creative vision and their fresh interpretations of tradition. You’ll see this expressed in the cuisine, interior design, architecture, and guest services.
In this roundup, we’re highlighting accommodations that offer something unique and special, like an in-house patisserie, a 2500m2 integrated wellness complex, visionary cuisine, or a high-alpine location. We’ve personally stayed in each hotel highlighted below.
Everyone comes to the Dolomites for the mountain views. But, when the weather isn’t cooperative, or you simply want a break from outdoor adventuring, having an enjoyable place to stay is important.
By choosing the right Dolomites hotel, you’re ensuring that your time here is memorable, rain or shine.

Good to Know
- Many hotels in the Dolomites require a minimum stay of three to five nights, especially during high season.
- The best Dolomites hotels are concentrated in the Italian province of South Tyrol.
- Many hotels offer half board, where breakfast and dinner are included in the rate. If you’re traveling in shoulder-season/off-season, we highly recommend choosing a hotel with an on-site restaurant, or half-board offering.
- Wellness and spa areas are almost always included. In our experience, you never have to pay an additional fee to use the hotel’s wellness area (saunas, pool, etc…). Sauna areas are generally textile-free zones for adults only.
- Many Dolomites hotels offer exclusive hiking and biking tours for their guests.

3. Dorfhotel Beludei
4-Star Superior Hotel in Santa Cristina, Val Gardena
24 Rooms

It’s time to introduce you to our favorite boutique hotel in Val Gardena.
Dorfhotel Beludei is located in the village of Santa Cristina, between Ortisei and Selva. When people visit Val Gardena for the first time, they usually flock to Ortisei. However, Santa Cristina is a more quiet base with easy access to hidden gems like Monte Pic and Baita Seurasas. The trail to both of these destinations starts directly behind the hotel.
With its storybook-chalet design, Dorfhotel Beludei feels effortlessly charming and timeless.
Rooms are spacious and furnished in a Tyrolean-alpine-style with fragrant swiss pine and larch wood hardwood floors and panelling. Many rooms have balcony views of Sassolungo (Langkofel in German).
Dorfthotel Beludei is also a great place to stay if you love creative, gourmet food. The hotel kitchen concocts the most visionary meals inspired by the Ladin and Italian culinary traditions. Dinner is served in 4 courses, each bursting with flavor and artistry.

4. Bad Moos Dolomites Spa Resort
4-Star Superior Hotel in Val Fiscalina, Sesto, South Tyrol

According to Bad Moos, their mineral-rich water (containing sulphur, fluoride, magnesium, and calcium) is good for your digestive system, musculoskeletal system, and integumentary system. People have been bathing here since 1764, according to records.
We were enthralled by the extensiveness of the spa, which comprises a candle-lit sulfur grotto filled with 20 waterbeds, a sulfur Kneipp trail, a cold sulfur bath (6.1°C), a steam sauna, organic sauna, Finnish sauna, panoramic sauna, ladies’ sauna, sulfur shower, and multiple relaxation rooms. Guests also have access to an indoor and outdoor pool.
Another perk of staying here is the complimentary afternoon snack. There’s a small buffet featuring a daily soup, savory dish, and cakes. Water, Elderflower juice, and coffee is also provided.
We also loved the location. From the hotel’s doorstep, you can follow the romantic pathway up Val Fiscalina to Fischleintalboden and Rifugio al Fondovalle (Talschlusshütte). You can also ride the Croda Rossa (Rotwand) cableway, located next to the hotel, up to the Prati di Croda Rossa (Rotwandwiesen) meadows.

5. Naturhotel Leitlhof
4-Star Superior Hotel in San Candido, Alta Pusteria, South Tyrol

There are many excellent accommodations across Alta Pusteria, but a true stand-out is Naturhotel Leitlhof in San Candido. From the cuisine and wellness area with infinity pool to the mountain views and design, Leitlhof makes a lasting impression.
Naturhotel Leitlhof is advantageously situated above San Candido (Innichen in German), an excellent base for exploring the Sexten and the Prags Dolomites as well as the Villgraten Mountains and Carnic Alps.

Off to the left, you can also see Dreischusterspitze (Punta tre Scarperi) (3145 m), the highest mountain in the Sexten Dolomites, and Gsellknoten (Cima di Sesto) (2865 m).
Views aside, the most compelling reason to stay here is the cuisine. Naturhotel Leitlhof sources their vegetables, herbs, and beef from their very own Mühlhof farm, located only a few minutes away from the hotel. That’s probably why each dish explodes with flavor. Everything we tasted was EXCELLENT – the best of the best.
Vegans can request a vegan menu for dinner. Inform the reception at check-in.
Dinner is served in five courses, starting with a salad and antipasti buffet. Though the dinner menu changes daily, you can also choose from the Leitlhof classics menu as well, which feature South Tyrolean favorites.
There’s also a complimentary afternoon snack (Marende) available in the lounge area daily. You can select savory and sweet items from the menu. The cake selection is sumptuous. Drinks are separate.

104 Suites

My Arbor – Plose Wellness Hotel is an adults-only, spa hotel nestled in the South Tyrolean mountains, high above Bressanone/Brixen.
Though technically located just a smidge outside of the Dolomites, we couldn’t resist adding My Arbor to this hotel guide. We recommend staying in this treetop sanctuary before, or after your trip to the Dolomites.
Standing on stilts, this striking tree hotel delivers a 5-star experience on every level: visual, experiential, culinary, wellness, etc.

Surrounded only by idyllic meadows and forest, Hotel Dolomitenhof enjoys unobstructed views of the highest peaks of the Sesto Sexten Dolomites, including Einserkofel (Cima Uno), Oberbachernspitzen (Croda Fiscaline), and Zwölferkofel (Croda di Toni).
A highlight of staying here is the panoramic wellness area and pool that spills outdoors, facing the Sexten Sundial. Lounge chairs are spread out spaciously across the lawn, creating the optimal environment for relaxation and reading. The spa encompasses 4 saunas and two cold plunge pools.
The hotel sources their ingredients (as much as possible) from local farms and alpine pastures. At breakfast, you’ll see exactly where your eggs, cheese, butter, etc.. come from. Dinner courses, made using local ingredients, are marked with a green farmer icon.
Undoubtedly, the most compelling reason to stay here is the location. Val Fiscalina is one of the dreamiest destinations in the Dolomites. Directly from the hotel, you can hike to Tre Cime di Lavaredo (Drei Zinnen) in 3 hours an Prati di Croda Rossa (Rotwandwiesen) meadows in 1 hour.

However, Hotel Col Alto stands out with its five saunas, footbath, waterbeds, relaxation rooms, ice fountain, indoor pool, whirlpool, and Kneipp course.
