Location location location ! Best location you can get , 5-7 min walk to cable car . Superb female (are we allowed to say this) receptionist, the men not so helpful. Lovely room but tricky for family of 4 with only one toilet and one shower . Rooms were actually too hot and after requesting fans these were given (but many plugs in room didn’t work).
Great dinners if you’ve got no dietary preferences don’t expect them to care or cater for you - my preferences were entirely and absolutely ignored (being lactose intolerant ) despite writing it down and despite mentioning my allergy when giving orders for dinner which had to be made at breakfast!! So we felt a bit hard done by, having paid full rate but not being accommodated .

Also rather annoying that you must pay €5 per bottle of sparking water that is plonked on your table and opened when the Dolomites water is free from the tap and amongst the best in the world

Breakfast was extremely poor, not much variety . Eggs were served as if cooked by a 3 year old , messy , no garnish and just very little variety from buffet . No replenishment either . When items were finished that was that even if it was nowhere near end of breakfast .

The hotel is otherwise relaxing and tranquil , nice to have the sauna . I’m sure it’s gorgeous in winter !

I had an outstanding experience at Hotel Waldrast. As a solo traveler I liked the appeal of a family owned business. The hotel is immaculate, well designed, with a beautiful, relaxing spa. My muscles were sore after hiking and biking, so I welcomed the Infrared Sauna, steam bath, traditional sauna, and whirlpool. The breakfast was bountiful, with crunch fresh bread and rolls, assorted cheeses and meat, cereals, yogurt, fresh fruit, eggs cooked to order, and delicious coffee. I opted for a Macchiato that was just heavenly. I cannot rave enough about the 5-course dinners, local wines, and excellent waiters. Although my room was not air conditioned, a cool breeze was had by opening the windows. I highly recommend.

The hotel is magnificent. ALL employees have a smile and are so friendly, the location to the slopes is great, the town is wonderful and the food at the hotel is excellent.

The spa and saunas are great, and the prices for drinks are fine. We had a spruce room for 3 and the room was more than ok for size and the views were breathtaking

I will return, hopefully next year, altogether an absolute delightful week in spectacular settings.
