Hotel Pontechiesa
A peaceful garden hotel with its own ski room
About this hotel
Hotel Pontechiesa sits in a peaceful garden setting just a 5-minute walk from Cortina's Corso Italia pedestrian area, with complimentary private parking, a small garage for bikes and a ski room for gear storage. A small spa is on-site, though its use is not included in the room price. Elegant rooms mostly carry parquet floors and a balcony with mountain views, with LCD satellite TV, mini-fridges on request, Wi-Fi access and a safe in every room. Breakfast covers homemade cakes, croissants, cold cuts, local cheese, scrambled eggs and mountain yogurt, and the on-site restaurant serves authentic Veneto cuisine.

Our take
This suits travellers who want a quiet garden setting within easy walking distance of Corso Italia, with a ski room and bike garage covering both winter and shoulder-season gear. The small spa is a nice extra rather than a headline feature since it costs separately, so guests chasing an included wellness floor should look elsewhere. The Veneto restaurant is worth booking rather than defaulting to the centre every night.
- Ask about the small spa's separate pricing before assuming it is included in your room rate
- Request a mountain-view balcony room, most but not all carry parquet and the view
- Use the ski room daily and the bike garage once the snow melts for a longer stay
Why we love it
- Peaceful garden setting near Corso Italia
- Ski room and bike garage
- Authentic Veneto cuisine on site
- Mountain-view balconies in most rooms
Why guests love itPontechiesa sits in a peaceful garden only a 5-minute walk from the pedestrian part of Corso Italia, so we had calm evenings and the town close at hand. Free private parking and a proper ski room made arrivals and mornings painless. The restaurant serves authentic Veneto cooking and we ate there most nights happily. Our balcony looked at the mountains, and the small spa, paid separately, was a nice extra on the coldest day.
