Bottom Line

The 120-room Adler Dolomiti Spa and Sport Resort is a high-end, family-run hotel complex set in the heart of a pretty South Tyrolean village. Boasting the largest water-based spa in the Dolomites, facilities are certainly impressive, as are the surrounding private parkland and accompanying mountain views. Rooms are peaceful and minimal, with modern bathrooms, minibars, and some with gorgeous balconies. Rates are bordering on eye-watering, though you can get plenty of extras with all-inclusive and half-board plans.

Oyster Hotel Review

ADLER Spa Resort DOLOMITI

Scene

A quaintly typical Tyrolean hotel that's been family-run for seven generations

First opened in 1810, this family-run spa hotel was originally a small inn. It has been under the management of the Sanoner family for seven generations (around 200 years), and in that time has grown to four buildings. After stepping inside, visitors are welcomed into a spacious, wood-clad lobby by staff in traditional dress behind a wood-slab topped reception desk. Large windows flood the space with light and stunning mountain views during the day, while a centerpiece chandelier and glass-boxed fireplace provide illumination and a cozy vibe in the evening. The surrounding Adler Park is an extensive well-tended garden with natural pools, wooden benches, and tidy lawns from where guests can enjoy the panoramic Dolomite vistas. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxed.

Location

Set in center of traditional village of Ortisei in Italy's South Tyrol Dolomites

Hotel Adler has a fantastic, panoramic position in the center of the traditional village of Ortisei, in the South Tyrol Dolomites in northeast Italy. The hotel is located in a pedestrianized area just off the main road and two blocks from the St Ulrich-Sieser Alm cablecar. From Ortisei there are also direct cable cars to the ski resorts of Val Gardena and Alpe di Siusi Seceda, while there are also numerous hiking trails just minutes away. The nearest railway station is in Bolzano, about a 50-minute drive away while Innsbruck Airport is an hour and a half away by car.

Rooms

Peaceful rooms open to furnished balconies with mountain views

The hotel has 120 rooms in total, all of which are decorated in a cozy, alpine-style blend of warm wood, simple wooden furnishings, and the odd splash of color. Expect pine wall paneling and bright fabrics with sophisticated brocade patterns; some rooms have wood ceiling beams. Most of the rooms open to furnished balconies, many with views over the town and the mountains beyond. Some rooms have renovated, modern bathrooms with walk-in showers (some rooms have tubs, too). Flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and minibars all come as standard.
