A stunning Alpine retreat will open at the foot of the Dolomites this winter
Le Graal Cortina will have just 30 rooms, including 13 suites, when it opens in Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Cortina d Ampezzo, nestled at the foot of the Dolomites, is a coveted destination for travelers seeking awe-inspiring vistas throughout the year. However, for those planning a winter getaway and yet to secure accommodation, a new option has emerged: Le Graal Cortina. This upcoming boutique hotel, set to open later this year, occupies a reimagined 1920s palazzo and offers a mere 30 rooms, including 13 suites.
Designed by Italian architect Achille Salvagni, the property exudes chic elegance, featuring deep woods, warm velvets, and abundant natural light to immerse guests in the mountains' grandeur. Direct access to the region's premier ski slopes and Cortina's historic center is a hallmark of the experience. A spa awaits weary guests at day's end, complete with an indoor pool, sauna, hammam, cryotherapy chamber, and treatment rooms.
Dining ensues as an integral aspect of the venture, with three restaurants and bars at your disposal. Le Monsù delivers a traditional fine dining ambiance, while Le Café provides an all-day, casual setting with Sicilian dishes infused with a modern flair. Should you crave a nightcap, Le Graal Bar offers an American twist on classics and an assortment of canapés and pastries.
Le Graal Cortina is not the only new arrival this winter. In early December, The First Cortina by The Pavilions Hotels & Resorts will also open in Cortina d’Ampezzo, boasting 76 rooms and a spa alongside several dining options. Next year, the historic Hotel Cristallo in Alta Badia will reemerge under the Mandarin Oriental brand, with 83 rooms, including 30 suites, alongside restaurants, bars, and the renowned Mandarin Oriental spa.
