Accommodation
Great hotels with Dolomite Mountains. Whether intimate lodge, family run B&B, or luxury spa resort, our hotels are unique, eminently local, and hard to leave.
Want to learn more about our Luxury Hotels?
Luxury accommodations in the Dolomites combine the ultimate in comfort and refinement. From five-star hotels, Michelin-star-rated restaurants, and pampering spas, just because you are in the mountains does not mean you cannot have a truly luxe Italian experience in the Dolomites! From the chic town of Cortina d’Ampezzo, a popular destination for the rich and famous, to the quiet and discreet luxury of San Cassiano in Alta Badia, you will find accommodations with credentials ranging from membership in the exclusive Relais & Châteaux to The Leading Hotels of the World!
Want to learn more about our Mountain Inns & Rifugios?
Rifugios – or mountain huts in English – are the classic accommodation for hikers, climbers, mountaineers, and ski mountaineers in the Alps. Set in spectacular locations high in the Dolomites, rifugios are accessible only on foot (with a few exceptions that are reachable by car). These marvelous establishments are open primarily in the summer, with a select few in winter, and offer meals and sleeping facilities.
The Dolomite rifugios are considered the best in the Alps. While some are dormitory style with bunk beds, many meet the standard of a simple guest house with private rooms and en-suite bathrooms, and each has its own unique character and charm. Bedding and linens are provided, hot showers are available, and meals are served in common dining areas – like a small mountain inn set high in the mountains with the most incredible vistas in the Dolomites. Whether you’re hiking in summer or skiing in winter, an overnight rifugio stay is not to miss on a Dolomite holiday.

Avalanche Safety Gear: Beacon, Shovel & Probe
When heading off-piste or into fresh snow - whether ski touring or simply snowshoeing - there are three essentials you should never be without: avalanche beacon, shovel, and probe. Why? Because around 18 minutes is the critical window to rescue a person buried in an avalanche. After that, survival chances drop dramatically.
The avalanche beacon (in Italian, ARTVA) is an electronic device that transmits and receives a radio signal, allowing rescuers to locate someone trapped beneath the snow. Once a signal is detected, the probe helps pinpoint the exact location and depth of the victim, while the shovel enables fast and efficient digging, as speed is everything in avalanche rescue.
Most ski touring backpacks are designed with a dedicated safety compartment for this gear. For even greater security, many skiers now choose airbag backpacks, which inflate in the event of an avalanche, helping you stay on the surface and avoid being buried.
