Escape to a secluded mountain cabin surrounded by forests and the jaw-dropping scenery of the Dolomites - includes breakfast, welcome perks, a travel card, and more
-
Stunning scenery: Hotel Gfell’s position takes in a jaw-dropping panorama of forests, meadows and mountain peaks – each of its 17 charming bedrooms has a different view of The Dolomites. The traditional mountain inn has been sympathetically expanded into a small, personal hotel, incorporating old barns, building directly into the hillside and blending beautifully with the surrounding nature.
-
Quiet luxury: Every aspect of the hotel has been thoughtfully considered: almost all rooms have direct access to nature, natural materials like oak and stone take centre stage, all the food is locally derived. Restaurant Schonblick (meaning, appropriately, ‘beautiful view’,) delivers Tyrolean classics made with the finest local ingredients, served on a panoramic terrace or inside the genteel dining room.
-
Rest and relaxation: The hotel’s founders believe in the healing power of nature to help you forget the stresses of daily life. Take daily trips to the forest sauna, relax in the mountain garden with a herbal infusion, or settle into a cosy alcove with mountain views and snuggly pillows with a book. For more active rest, the hotel can hire out bikes, backpacks and walking poles, and the staff can advise on the best routes to take.
How to get there
Bolzano Airport is about 35 minutes’ drive away from Hotel Gfell, with Verona (two hours) and Innsbruck over the border in Austria (also two hours) offering alternative flights. The hotel is remotely located so a car is recommended, and there is ample parking available.

Province of Bolzano - South Tyrol
This corner of the Dolomites is unspoilt and less frequently explored than the area’s big hitters, like Tre Cime di Lavaredo or Sassolungo, but the trails and views are no less spectacular. The Schlern (or Sciliar, in Italian) are a stunning range of mountains with endless footpaths that navigated dense, sun-dapped forests, breathtaking peaks and rolling meadows, which chime with the gentle ringing of cow bells. Popular routes include the Rosengarten Traverse, through a lunar-like protected park, and Bärenfalle, which navigates steep-sided ravines through ancient, jagged rock. The routes are dotted with mountain huts and refuges, where you can refuel. It’s beautiful any time of the year: from the blazing blue skies of summer, to the quiet days of autumn when the leaves fall, and the white-blanketed beauty of winter and spring, when the area becomes a skier’s paradise.
