Barisetti Sport Hotel
Fifty metres from the Freccia nel Cielo lift
About this hotel
Barisetti Sport Hotel sits in central Cortina, 700 metres from the Corso Italia shopping strip and close to the town's ice skating rink, but the real draw is its distance to the lifts, just 50 metres to the Freccia nel Cielo cable car. Every room has a balcony, minibar, satellite TV and private bathroom with hairdryer and toiletries, and most look out toward the Tofane Mountains. After skiing, the wellness area offers sauna and steam bath, and the restaurant mixes international dishes with Italian and local specialities at breakfast and dinner.
- Sauna & steam bath
- Balcony rooms
- Free parking
- Near ice rink
Our take
This suits skiers who want the shortest possible walk to a major cable car without sacrificing a proper wellness area or balcony views. Couples rate the location highly for a two-person trip. Families needing dedicated kids' facilities or a five-star spa scale should look at the larger resort properties instead, Barisetti stays sport-focused and central rather than lavish.
- Request a balcony room facing the Tofane rather than the street side for the better view
- Head to the Freccia nel Cielo early, fifty metres means you can catch the very first cars up
- Use the sauna and steam bath after a full ski day, not before, for the best recovery
Why we love it
- 50m from the Freccia nel Cielo cable car
- Balcony rooms with Tofane views
- Sauna and steam bath
- Free parking and Wi-Fi
Why guests love itBarisetti Sport Hotel is a three-star in central Cortina, 50 metres from the Freccia nel Cielo cable car, and I would book it for families who want a very short walk to the lift. Balcony rooms look onto the Tofane, the wellness area has a sauna and steam bath for parents, and the restaurant serves international, Italian and local dishes. The town's ice rink is nearby for after-ski time, and parking and in-room internet are free. Guests rate it 8.9.
