Hotel Lajadira & Spa
Turkish bath, hot tub and a free shuttle to the lifts
About this hotel
Hotel Lajadira & Spa is an elegant building just off the SS51 national road, 1.5km from Cortina's centre, offering spacious accommodation with wood furnishings typical of the Alps. Rooms and suites have a balcony with views of the Dolomites, and the wellness spa includes a Turkish bath and hot tub for guests recovering from a ski day. A heated ski room covers gear storage, and free Wi-Fi runs through the lobby. La Taverna restaurant serves a varied menu of international and regional cuisine, and a free shuttle connects the property to the centre of Cortina and the ski lifts, removing the 1.5km distance as a practical issue.

- Heated ski room
Our take
This suits travellers who want a genuine wellness spa with both Turkish bath and hot tub, plus free parking, without paying central Corso Italia prices. The free shuttle makes the distance from town a non-issue for both dining out and reaching the lifts. Guests who specifically want to walk to a restaurant every night without transport should weigh the shuttle schedule before booking.
- Check the free shuttle timetable before planning evenings in the centre, it runs on a schedule rather than on demand
- Use the heated ski room daily rather than storing gear in your room
- Book a Dolomites-view balcony room if the mountain outlook matters to your stay
Why we love it
- Turkish bath and hot tub
- Free shuttle to the centre and lifts

Why guests love itLajadira sits 1.5km from the centre, but the free shuttle to central Cortina and the lifts meant we never missed having the car out. Our room had warm Alpine wood furnishings and a balcony looking at the Dolomites, a lovely place for the first coffee of the day. The heated ski room was a blessing with children's boots, and the spa with Turkish bath and hot tub made every evening feel like a small holiday within the holiday.
