About Hotel Pontechiesa

Dive straight into the best of the Dolomites at Hotel Ponteschiesa. Hop on the free ski bus just 80m from the door – it runs every 10 minutes and whisks you to the Faloria and Cristallo areas in under five minutes. If you'd prefer a morning walk, the Tofana and Freccia nel Cielo cable cars are a short 5-minute stroll away. And to top it all off, you're surrounded by UNESCO-listed views of the Dolomites.

The hotel restaurant is all about celebrating and blending local Italian traditions with international flavours. Using the freshest regional ingredients, you can really taste the love the chefs put into every dish. Start your day with a breakfast spread that's worth waking up for - sizzling bacon and fluffy eggs, followed by fresh fruit and flaky pastries. Then, as the sun begins to set, sit down with friends and family for a three-course dinner - you'll get to choose a curated à la carte main, followed by a tasty dessert to tide you over until morning.

Discover Cortina D’Ampezzo

There’s only one! The Olympic resort of Cortina D’Ampezzo is one of the most filmed, photographed, skied and visited resorts in the Italian Alps. 

Located east of the Sellaronda circuit, it’s not called the 'Queen of the Dolomites' for nothing. It has 140 kilometres of skiable terrain that stretches up to a incredible 2,939 metres. It’s renowned for the excellent selection of skiing as well as superb accommodation, bars, restaurants and shopping.

The main skiing areas are the Cortina Cube (Socrepes, Faloria and Mietres), Tofana, and Lagazuoi - 5 Torri, with plenty of challenging runs as well as some of the most amazing views. The areas are either linked by the impressive network of lifts or local ski buses and in Winter 2021 saw a number of new and improved lifts cutting down queues and CO2 emissions. The Tofana area has a women's downhill World Cup run, which Cortina hosts each January and, in February 2021, held the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships, inviting some of the world's best skiers for an unmissable event.
