Nestled in the charming Dolomite village of Corvara, the Hotel La Perla blends deliciously cosy charm with contemporary elegance. Perched right on the doorstep of the Dolomiti Superski area, in winter, you can ski straight from your room onto some of Europe’s best slopes. When summer rolls around, lifts take you up to explore amazing high trails through the UNESCO World Heritage listed Dolomites.

With just 54 luxuriously appointed chalet-style rooms and suites, the atmosphere is intimate, and the service attentive. While each room has its own personality, all feature Swiss pine interiors that exude warmth and character, cleverly combined with modern amenities, soft, comforting textiles and precious antiques paying homage to Tyrolean style. Most rooms have private balconies, providing picture postcard views of the mountains. Discerning travellers will love the space of the Suite Dolomite, which boasts two double rooms and two bathrooms, including one with a bathtub and shower that transforms into a Turkish bath, plus two balconies offering jaw-dropping views over the Dolomites.

A culinary destination, La Perla’s four winter and five summer restaurants cater to every palate. Chef Simone Cantafio’s innovative cuisine is a celebration of fresh, seasonal ingredients, resulting in dishes that are both beautiful and delicious. From Michelin-starred artistry at La Stüa de Michil to the lively Bistrot Music Club with its Italian fare traditional alpine fare at Restaurant Ladinia and Les Stües Restaurant. In summer, L’Murin showcases artisanal European beers and in winter is a popular Après Ski venue. And for oenophiles, Mahatma Wine Cellar: boasts an award-winning collection of thirty thousand bottles.

A feature that sets La Perla apart is an on-site motorcycle museum, packed with gleaming vintage bikes, which adds an unexpected touch to a stay.

After a day of skiing or hiking, unwind by the indoor pool or indulge in a natural, holistic treatment at the on-site spa. Salus Per Aquam, the hotel’s wellness centre, offers a tranquil haven where guests can find balance and discover the magic of silence. Ayurvedic treatments and massages promote both physical and spiritual wellbeing.
