Rosapetra Spa Resort

The spa! Wonderful. The breakfast spread too. Our room was small but fine. Was surprised that at this price point there isn’t air conditioning, and in August it was warm in our room. They offered us a fan but I’m not sure it worked (could have been user error & we never said anything to them about it; I have no doubt the front desk would have responded promptly had we asked, given their consistently excellent & responsive service). Very convenient & easy garage parking underground that felt secure. Service from front desk was outstanding—truly above & beyond. The dining was so-so, very expensive for what it was, with rather neglectful service in the end (after a strong start). You will want to be dressed nicely at dinner. Gym was also very, very nice. The spa was the best part for me— cold plunge, multiple saunas, massage stations in the pool—loved it. Note that this hotel is a little out of town & the traffic was awful while we were there. For driving the mountain passes, you may want to be on the other side of town, but I’d stay here again regardless.

A stunning hotel set just outside Cortina with a friendly shuttle bus into town. Great restaurant, bar area, and leisure facilities, but the highlight is the staff, where nothing is too much trouble. In particular, the concierge's knowledge of walks and via ferrata was incredible, and added huge value to our holiday. Can't wait to return.

We had a wedding luncheon for our son and everything went perfectly. My son moved the dinner to a lunch just 24 hours prior to the event. The resort was so accomodating to us. I wanted to call out the service staff who did EXCELLENT! Valentina, Eleonora, Mateo, Roberta and Riccardo serviced our lunch. Thank You!

Wow - this place is simply fantastic. All staff are super friendly and helpful. Our room is enormous with beautiful views of the mountains. And the concierge has set us up with some great hikes. Restaurant food and service impeccable (and very reasonably priced for the high quality). Only regret is that we are not staying longer.

Honestly, I do not know where to start. Each of the departments is flawed, understaffed and poorly run. The new Management is trying to recover from inheriting a property in decline. There is a very, very, very long road ahead. First and foremost,: attitude must change! The adage that the Customer/Guest is always right, does not come even close to vocabulary at Rosapetra. If a rotten egg is served for breakfast, it is the guest's palate or the guest's taste buds that must be having an issue, because the carton of eggs "was just delivered" and therefore: "there could not be a rotten eggs inside". Meanwhile the guest is becoming ill, but...who cares? When housekeeping breaks personal items in the room, the denial and the stonewalling only rival those of a political candidate with 1% of the votes who claims (s)he is going to be the winner. Unfortunately, when forced to admit the deed, the staff closes ranks and your item(s) is gone. When the SPA, makes major mistakes on day/time of your appointment(s), it is your fault. You, the Customer, is in the wrong for showing up on time. Ms. Eleonora (SPA Manager of sort) reminds you that her staff cannot make a mistake. They are the all-knowing, all understanding. You are just the ***** paying their salaries. When the guest spends over $1000 (one thousand) per night, and the reservation INCLUDES a full English-style breakfast, one quickly finds out that an omelette or a toast are not included. In fact, there is a long list of items NOT included in the breakfast. 5 stars...really? However, if one queries the Restaurant's Manager about the aforementioned charges, he will dazzle you with stories of how long it takes to cook an omelette versus 3 sunny side up style eggs. The embellishment continues detailing how the ham comes from a very special farm and it must be charged extra when put in a toast. It would be funny if it were not tragic and unbecoming. If you book the standard room, you better travel light, very light, because there is no space for luggage in the prison cell size room. (I have never been to prison). Orange is the new black docet. Do you want a mattress brought to the terrace? Expect to wait for 45 minutes. The same is true if you order room service: one hour wait and it is delivered cold, but that is just because the restaurant is understaffed. Every item is charged as an extra, I am surprised that the elevator does not have a coin slot. The head Concierge with a "local" pedigree cannot find a train schedule, even if you type the departure and arrival points for him. Oh well, it is your fault: if you would just travel by air like all other guests!!! However he is very good in taking kick-backs from the "hand picked" safe taxi drivers. The new Mandarin Oriental will open 4 minutes down the street, in the old Cristallo. Those in the know will flock to a real 5 stars property. The Aman Rosa Alpina (not Rosapetra) will open 50 minutes further away. There is a gentleman from Sri Lank

Rosapetra is a wonderful hotel, BUT they only have one restaurant and they do prioritize outsiders VS who is staying at the hotel. In short: you have to book a table 72 hours in advance to be able to eat at the only restaurant / only option inside the hotel ... as the hotel is not in the city, not having the flexibility to just stay in and eat when you are tired after a full day of skiing is far from what one expects from a 5 star hotel...

Beautiful rustic style rooms, well-appointed. Absolutely unfaultable service in all areas of hotel. The hotel offers a shuttle service to and from the city centre from early morning to late night. There is a beautiful bar and hotel. Breakfast is included and there is free WiFi. There are amazing picture windows framing the mountains and there are walking tracks around the hotel. The spa was very relaxing and had lots of different services. There is the option for children to use the pool up to 2pm and there are areas that are child-free, which allows different guests to make use of the facilities.

I stayed in the hotel for a few days in August 2023. The hotel is a beautiful building, with much wood and stylish furniture. It is close to the main road, but rooms in the back are silent and they have a beautiful view over the Tofana mountains. Everything is super clean. Staff is super nice, friendly and helpful. However, rooms are really very small (too small for what they cost), even if they are well organised and all amenities are available. We were there during the summer, but it is difficult to imagine where guests could put winter gear. Something that really shocked me was that all warm dishes for breakfast were not included and one needed to pay for them. I am talking about even scrambled eggs and pankakes... I have never found this in another four- or five-star hotel Generally speaking, in fact, the hotel is super expensive. Dinner is also very expensive, with a limited number of dishes and prices for all fish and meat dishes calculated by grams. All in all, even if it is a beautiful building and I rate it at four-stars (it will be unfair otherwise), I would not recommend it.

The crowds in Cortina are crazy right now but this hotel offers a refuge from the chaos. The concierge is by far the best. The outdoor sauna is a must with views that are dream worthy. There is an indoor pool with lovely spa and a wonderful gym with new techno equipment. A shuttle is available to town.
