“A hotel in the classic style with service to match. It is friendly, stylish and classy. I was here for 3 weeks during the Olympics and it was a perfect base. It’s in the exact centre of town, next to the church and bell tower (you won’t need an alarm clock, but they didn’t ring all night!) Michael and the team were always ready to help. Breakfast is wonderful, with a superb buffet but also extra hot items available to order. The staff as a whole are attentive and friendly. Please also pass on my thanks to the room staff who keep the rooms spotlessly clean. Grazie mille!”
“Three weeks at Hotel Cortina and it genuinely became home Paralympic chaos, long days, unpredictable schedules… and somehow the team made everything feel easy, warm, and…fun!! The staff here are next level — I’ll be naming each of them because they truly made this stay what it was. Thank you Hugo, Michael, Mohammed, Danilo, Saliou, Giuliano, Ilaria, Giovanni, Andrea, Ricardo…and all staff! The breakfast was elite. Like… who is going to make me breakfast like that every morning now?! Coming back after those long days and my team being taken care of like that was unmatched. We had our daily meetings starting at 7 am and spent long days on the first floor “office” with big tv and hdmi to connect to. The space was very much appreciated. Rooms are super clean and cozy. No kettle, like everywhere else in the area but they will accommodate everything! Location was central. There is a nice dry and wet sauna area that you can book. A big thank you from our medical team!”
“Hotel Cortina was a very enjoyable stay and an excellent base for exploring the Dolomites. The location is outstanding, right in the heart of Cortina, making it easy to walk to restaurants, shops, and everything the town has to offer. The hotel has a classic alpine charm and while some areas show their age, that is part of its character. What truly made our stay memorable was the staff. Hospitality can make or break a hotel experience, and the team at Hotel Cortina was exceptional. A special thank you to Luka, Daniel, and Michael at the front desk and bell staff. They were consistently welcoming, professional, and eager to help with anything we needed. Whether providing recommendations, assisting with logistics, or simply greeting us with a smile after a long day in the mountains, they made us feel genuinely cared for throughout our stay. We would also like to recognize Francesco in the restaurant. His service was outstanding. He was attentive, personable, and helped create a warm and enjoyable dining experience every time we saw him. While the location and hotel itself are certainly strengths, it was the people who made the biggest impression on us. Thank you to Luka, Daniel, Michael, and Francesco for helping make our time in Cortina so enjoyable.”
“I stayed at Hotel Cortina for two weeks while training for the upcoming Olympic Games. The service was some of the best I have ever experienced, I can't say enough good things about the staff. The location is central... walk right out the door and you are in the center of town. The hotel aesthetic is classic and charming, inviting you to relax once you step inside the doors. The spa is a nice added touch and the food was wonderful as well!”
