Castel Badia

Nestled in the heart of Val Pusteria, surrounded by the timeless beauty of the Dolomites, Castel Badia is a 29-room intimate alpine retreat where heritage, nature and understated luxury coexist in perfect harmony. After years of meticulous restoration, the hotel has just reopened, offering a fresh, refined experience while honoring its historic character. Easily accessible, Castel Badia is approximately 200 km (about 114 miles) from Venice Marco Polo Airport, making it an ideal alpine getaway for travelers seeking both adventure and serenity. Housed within a carefully restored thousand-year-old castle, the hotel blends Ladin culture, refined design, spirituality and a deep sense of place.…

Step into history at Castel Badia, an 11th-century monastery turned alpine retreat in the heart of the Dolomites. The 29 rooms and suites blend exposed stone, reclaimed wood, and vaulted ceilings with contemporary comforts; breathe in pure air and sweeping vistas from your private balcony. Embrace renewal in the tranquil spa, enclosed in ancient stone walls and utilizing healing herbs in its time-honored rituals. The warm, wood-paneled Stube restaurant reinterprets South Tyrolean heritage through a contemporary lens. You’re minutes from Kronplatz ski resort and Lake Braies.
