Hotel Grifone has a quiet location near the Campolongo pass. It's a beautifully designed hotel between the resorts Arabba and Corvara, surrounded by the spectacular Dolomite mountains. You can be sure of a great holiday here with spacious rooms and mountain views from the balcony. For those who want to be the first on the slopes, jump on the hotel’s free shuttle bus from early morning. You'll be taken directly to the Mont Cherz lift, which leads straight onto the Sella Ronda circuit.

Hotel Evaldo is a family-run hotel. It's a popular base with guests wanting to hit the Sellaronda. Set back from the centre of Arabba, you can enjoy the peaceful views of the surrounding Dolomiti mountains while still having convenient access to the slopes. The hotel's about a five-minute walk from the centre of Arabba,a charming village with fantastic access to the ski area and the highest point in the Dolomites- the Marmolada. The lifts are a little further away from the centre, with the Portavescovo lift being the nearest, the hotel runs a daily shuttle service in the mornings and afternoons so getting on and off the slopes couldn't be easier. Arabba benefits from having excellent connections to the 'must do' areas of the Dolomites including the Marmolada glacier, the Sellaronda and the Hidden Valley, be sure to ask the team for their recommendations for a lunch stop.

The Hotel Garni Bellavista is above the centre of Arabba and gets great views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. The centre of the resort and ski lifts are just 500 metres away, taking around ten minutes to walk casually. Don't worry about bringing your boots and equipment with you though, as you can leave them in the ski deposit at the partner hotel which is very close to the piste.

Hotel Pralong is a real gem, especially for couples as the hotel does not cater for group bookings. It's located opposite the slopes at the top of Selva with spectacular views over the mountains and forests. The hotel has put a lot of effort into the attention to detail, design and decorations of the hotel. Nature plays a part in all of this, which can be seen throughout the property with candles surrounded by fur cones in the bar area, beautiful, embroidered cushions in the dining room and flowers in reception. The hotel offers a cosy retreat for your Italian ski holiday - each of the rooms are furnished in a Tyrolean style with wood and cosy furnishings, plus they are equipped with everything needed for a comfortable week including internet access and a TV.

Dating back to 1986, Hotel Oswald was once considered to be the best hotel in the Dolomites and remains one of Selvas’ most historic hotels. The Oswald retains its charm; the cosy rooms are spacious and furnished with warm wood throughout and many of them have lovely views of the resort and surrounding mountains. The elegant public areas are ideal for catching up with friends and family, head up to the lounge and enjoying the mountain views from the conservatory or enjoying a drink in the cosy bar area.

The charming Hotel Mignon has been a family-run hotel for more than 50 years. The hotel is situated on the edge of town, so getting onto the slopes couldn't be easier - the Ciampinoi Gondola is only a five-minute walk away and there's a free shuttle that'll take you there in the mornings. The centre of Selva is within walking distance too, where you can find various shops, cosy cafes and bars. The Mignon ticks all the boxes for a winter retreat, warm wood and cosy furnishings are seen throughout the hotel and bright, spacious bedrooms with views of the surrounding Dolomiti mountains are perfect for your stay in Selva.

Hotel Aaritz has an unbeatable location right in the centre of Selva directly opposite the Ciampinoi gondola. The hotel offers elegance - a grand staircase leads down to the lounge with a log-burning fireplace and comfy sofas. The rooms are beautifully decorated, and they all come with a balcony and views over the valley or the village. You couldn't ask for a better location. Set on the main high street of Selva, the Ciamponoi gondola station is just opposite the hotel so you can easily get onto the fabulous Dolomiti Ski Area. If you want to ski on the clockwise circuit of the Sella Ronda, the Costabella chairlift is around a five-minute walk which takes you to the Dantercepies run - from here you have access to the lovely red run heading back towards Selva or can drop down into Colfsco and Covara.

Hotel Bel'alpe is located in Morzine, just 100 metres from the centre of the ski station and from the TC Super Morzine Ski Lift. The hotel features a bar and a communal living room with a piano. On-site, guests can enjoy a game of pool or unwind in the sauna. Free WiFi is provided throughout the property and free private parking is available.
