We have just returned from the most fantastic weeks skiing in the Dolomites. What can I say about this gem of a Hotel. We were immediately greeted by a lovely man who carried our bags across the Road. As we walked through into the reception, the owner, Prisca, a friendly and warming character, cheekily welcomed us as if old friends! We were taken to our newly refurbished room, warm, comfortable and everything we needed with plenty of space for everything. We dined every evening to a 5 course set menu with a great choice! Breakfast was plentiful and the staff couldn’t do enough for us. Prisca was on hand every day, her wit and charm keeping us amused. The boot room was heated and large to ensure your not bumping into other skiers. Located right in the centre, next to the bus stop where a ski bus every 10/15 mins took you 30 seconds to the road to the number 29 gondala. This of you who think ski in ski out is the way forward, don’t be out off, this was so easy! You could go in any direction to Ortesi, St Christina for the most amazing skiing! We could actually ski back to the hotel through the back of the town! This amazing hotel does not get enough praise! The week was ripped of by a complimentary bottle of prosseco for one of our party who’s birthday it was! Prisca had checked dates on passports and surprised us! The Crystal website doesn’t do it justice! A family run, comfortable and welcoming hotel, not 5 star, but a 5 star home feeling! Thank you to Prisca and the Staff! We...

Read moreDes Alpes are a must visit when in the picturesque mountain village Selva di Val Gardena.
Des Alpes offers cozy hotel rooms with the latest technology and is located at the heart of one of the greatest ski resorts Europe has to offer - you ski right from the slopes to the bar after a long day outside. On the culinary side, the cuisine leaves no wishes unsatisfied. Me and my family value the tasty food and great choice of drinks. We enjoy particularly the glass cube seating area, which mixes a modern feeling with the friendly Southern Tyrol atmosphere.
What makes the place unique is its owner! Prisca manages the place with great passion. It's always the highlight of our visit, when she joins us for a drink and a chat on our table.
If you are looking for great food, a cozy hotel and a heartwarming-friendly host, Des Alpes is your place to be!
