The house
Falkensteiner Hotels & ResidencesAlpine sports lodge
Life here revolves around mountain sports, balancing strenuous Dolomite ascents with fireside drinks and heated open-air swimming.
What it’s good at
Notable
An Experience Concierge coordinates guided climbing and ski outings into the Dolomites.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The Kronplatz ski lifts sit just outside, and the medieval streets of Brunico are three kilometres down the valley.
The rooms
Rooms take their palettes from the four seasons, with pale local timber and windows looking onto the mountains.
The outdoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A 25-metre heated sports lap pool steams in the open air against the snow and timber pavilions.
Sauna and hammam
An outdoor Finnish sauna looks onto the mountains, joined by a stone hammam and guided Aufguss infusions.
The spa and gym
Hanging timber daybeds furnish the relaxation lounge, and floor-to-ceiling glass wraps around the 24-hour fitness centre.
Dogs stay too.
7Summit Restaurant
Chefs plate Alpine-Mediterranean courses from an open show kitchen, drawing inspiration from seven Dolomite peaks.
On The Rocks Bar
Cocktails named after Alpine peaks are served beside an open fireplace and out on the terrace.
How it began
The family brand began in 1957 as a modest seven-bed guesthouse in nearby Ehrenburg before expanding across the Alps.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
