COMO Alpina Dolomites – Dolomites, Italy
The Dolomite scenery is without doubt truly spectacular – the jutting peaks that turn pink at dusk never stop drawing your eye. The COMO Alpina Dolomites, with its glass fronted, modernist architecture, makes the most of the view, from its almost circular location on the Alpe di Suisi, Europe’s largest high-altitude plateau. Blending in with its natural surroundings, it’s built from local stone and wood in three parts with the ski slopes in between.
One is around an original 18th century stuben and another is reached by an underground passage. Inside, linear design and custom-made furniture create sophisticated interiors. And as well as all the five-star luxuries and typical Tyrolean gastronomy, you can be sure of a warm welcome from this family run hotel.

And then there’s the Spa for a more relaxed and indulgent way to spend your time. Even here has panoramic views! The indoor and outdoor pools fuse, creating the illusion of a lake, surrounded by terraces, with the mighty peaks as the backdrop. Winter or summer, you’ll never be short of things to do.

It’s hard to imagine a COMO destination where children aren’t welcome! At Play by COMO, young guests have a dedicated space designed to spark creativity and adventure. Open from 3:00pm to 8:00pm, the Play Space offers an engaging programme for children aged four to 12, featuring interactive games, art projects, curated toys, and even magical cinema nights. Kids can explore, learn new skills, and make new friends—all in a fun and inspiring environment.
While there is no supervision during dinner (7:00pm – 8:00pm), children are welcome to continue their play. Toddlers under four must be accompanied by a babysitter or parent at all times.
Summer
The Dolomites are also a summer paradise – the beauty of the Alpine meadows from June to September is breathtaking. Walking, mountain biking, golf, paragliding and the near vertical vie ferrate provide the perfect itinerary for active and adventurous families.
