Beautiful winter retreat

Pros: -Good food, especially dinner (salat buffet and than 2 meals of choice plus dessert) -Pancakes for breakfast -Ski shuttle is super efficient, we never waited more than 10min -Hotel staff is very friendly -Hotel is very nicely decorated

Cons: -Spa area can be too loud. I would prefer ‘adults only’, because once there were adolescent children staring.

Lovely.

Pros: Plenty of space in the room. Good menu in the restaurant and the waitresses were great and looked after us really well. Breakfast was a buffet and just fine. This is a lovely family run hotel and I can highly recommend it. The only downsize is that it is about 3-4 km from Arabba so there is not much else around if you don't have vehicle.

Great location, experience and value

Pros: The staff working at the property were very attentive, professional, friendly, and quick to resolve any questions/queries/issues we had. Location is ideal for all the summer hiking we wanted to be doing, and the spa facilities on site were very good! Lovely to be able to have breakfast outside with a nice view, and wifi was very good!

Cons: Shower took a while to warm up on occasion, and I’m guessing water pressure can vary quite a bit in the mountains. Minimal toiletries provided.

5 star review

Pros: Dinner service was spectacular, from the staff to food. Staff was welcoming and nice, always there if we had any questions. Adding that we were never left hungry after dinner or breakfast. And Christmas dinner? Just simply amazing from every angle. And I will never forget how accomodating they were when we asked for one last shuttle to the slopes, even if we have already checked out and they weren't offering it that day. They did it without hestitation. Thank you all for amazing Italian hospitality in the hearth of Dolomites And a friendly reminder for future guests is to bring your own bathroom robes and definetely some slippers for sauna and just walking from room to restaurant. Pictures down below shows you how amazing the food is.

Cons: I really don't have anything bad to say about Al Forte.

Gabrijela 10/10

Pros: We had a really nice and comfortable stay in Hotel Al Forte. The room was very clean and had everything we needed (big bed, small refrigerator, bathroom with hairdryer, TV and even balcony). The restaurant had amazing staff, various options for breakfast and great dinners. Lots and lost of food with many different options. The hotel was very close to a small town called Arabba where you can buy freshly made sandwiches for hiking (in Despar). We were close to most of the hiking trails and were very happy with our stay. Highly reccommend!

Cons: Tha pressure in the shower was sometimes very low so the shower took longer while we had to wait for the water to come again.

Pros: The hotel is extremely welcoming, combining original fortress architecture with a modern extension. The design of the hotel is very sensitive to every detail. The staff is very helpful, attentive to the needs of the guests. In addition to the very pleasant wellness center, I would also appreciate the friendliness of the restaurant and the quality of the food. We have been to the hotel for the second time and would be happy to return again.

Cons: Absolutely no complaints
