About Hotel Bellavista
Hotel Bellavista sits above the centre of Arabba, commanding open views across the Dolomite valley from most of its rooms, the majority of which have their own balcony. The hotel's interior follows a traditional alpine character — wooden floors, rustic detailing, and a warm atmosphere that feels appropriate to the mountain setting rather than contrived. At 500 square metres, the property has genuine scale, with its own restaurant and bar on site. Guests also have full access to the facilities at sister property Hotel Portavescovo, which adds an indoor pool, sauna, Turkish bath, and gym to what's available. The arrangement effectively doubles the wellness offering without it feeling tacked on. Ski access is a practical highlight: the Sella Ronda chairlifts are just over 500 metres from the hotel, making it straightforward to get on the mountain quickly each morning. For those exploring the wider Dolomiti Superski area, Arabba is one of the better-positioned villages on the circuit.

Location
Arabba is one of the Dolomiti Superski area's most strategically placed villages, sitting directly on the Sella Ronda circuit — the famous ski route that loops through four valleys and connects some of the region's most celebrated terrain. Hotel Bellavista is positioned above the village centre, giving it elevated views and a slightly quieter setting while keeping the lifts within easy reach. The Sella Ronda chairlifts are just over 500 metres away on foot, which translates to a short walk in ski boots rather than a transfer. The village itself has a compact, functional character with restaurants, shops, and après-ski options close at hand. For those arriving by car, the hotel is accessible via the main Arabba road, with the Brenner motorway providing the most direct route from northern Europe.

Arabba is a highly regarded, traditional Ladin village nestled at 1,602m in the heart of the Italian Dolomites. Unlike some of its more glitzy neighbors, Arabba prioritizes serious skiing, offering some of the most challenging and snow-sure pistes in the Sella Ronda circuit. Its north-facing slopes on Porta Vescovo are famous for their steep, exhilarating reds and blacks that hold excellent snow throughout the entire season. Directly connected to the Marmolada glacier—the highest peak in the Dolomites at 3,269m—Arabba gives skiers access to breathtaking long descents, including the famous 12km 'La Bellunese' run. The village itself retains a quiet, rustic charm with cozy mountain huts, authentic Italian dining, and a laid-back atmosphere, making it a haven for dedicated winter sports enthusiasts who value terrain over vibrant nightlife.
Arabba offers the most demanding terrain on the Sella Ronda, with steep, icy north-facing slopes that thrill advanced skiers. Beginners and intermediates can enjoy the sunnier slopes towards the Alta Badia border, or embark on the legendary 500km connected Sella Ronda circuit directly from the village.
A UNESCO World Heritage site known for dramatic limestone peaks and a massive interconnected lift network spanning 1,200km of pistes.
