Trentino-Alto Adige is an autonomous region of northern Italy bordering Austria and Switzerland, home to the spectacular UNESCO-listed Dolomites. Split into the Italian-speaking province of Trentino and the German-speaking South Tyrol, the region blends alpine grandeur with Mediterranean wine valleys, world-class skiing, and a fascinating dual culture.
Luxury hotels
Five-star and palace properties.
Rosa Alpina, A Belmond Hotel
Long the most celebrated luxury address in the Dolomites, the Rosa Alpina combines deep family heritage with world-class dining and a refined alpine spa in the Ladin village of San Cassiano. Surrounded by the Fanes and Sella peaks, it is home to the three-Michelin-starred St. Hubertus and sits at the heart of the Alta Badia ski and hiking area.
Forestis Dolomites
A serene, design-led retreat perched at 1,800 metres on the Plose mountain above Bressanone, Forestis is a car-discouraged sanctuary of glass, larch and silence. Its towers frame uninterrupted Dolomite views, and its wellness philosophy draws on the surrounding forest, alpine springs and the energy of the mountain.
Vigilius Mountain Resort
A car-free mountain retreat reached only by cable car above Lana, designed by Matteo Thun as a sleek timber-and-glass lodge that all but disappears into the hillside. With no cars, no crowds and sweeping views over the Adige Valley and the Dolomites, it is among Italy's most distinctive design hotels.
Relais & Châteaux Hotel Castel Fragsburg
Perched on a wooded shoulder above Merano, this restored 17th-century hunting lodge is the smallest luxury hotel in South Tyrol and a member of Relais & Châteaux. With around twenty rooms, a panoramic infinity pool over the Adige Valley, terraced gardens and a gourmet restaurant, it offers intimate, garden-wrapped seclusion.
Fine dining
Michelin-starred and chef-driven restaurants.
St. Hubertus
The benchmark of Dolomite fine dining, holding three Michelin stars for cooking built on the 'Cook the Mountain' philosophy of strictly local, seasonal and altitude-driven ingredients. Among the most acclaimed restaurants in the Alps.
Anna Stuben
A Michelin-starred restaurant in an intimate wood-panelled Tyrolean stube, reinterpreting South Tyrolean and Italian traditions with finesse alongside a deep Alto Adige wine cellar.
