Rosapetra Spa Resort
Contemporary alpine luxury with a genuinely warm, intimate feel. Local craftmanship and natural materials take centre stage — dark velvets, fir-panelled walls, stone floors. It's quiet and removed from the town buzz, but a free shuttle keeps Cortina's centre and the ski lifts within easy reach.
The spa can be booked privately in the evening — great option for couples
Why It Matters
Spa ranked among top 100 in Europe (Touring Guide); exclusive new Penthouse Suite designed with Italian furniture brand Henge, including private sauna and hot tub; every room has direct Dolomite mountain views; part of the Relegance Collection alongside Palazzina Grassi on Venice's Grand Canal. Also listed on Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
Rosapetra Spa Resort is a 5-star boutique hotel sitting in a sunny alpine meadow just outside Cortina d'Ampezzo, with clear sightlines to the Tofane massif from every room. The 34-unit property (26 rooms, 8 suites) is built from local fir wood and Dolomite stone — materials that run from the facade right through the furniture and into the room panelling. Its spa ranks among the top 100 in Europe per the Italian Touring Guide, a notable credential for a hotel of this intimate size. The newest addition, the Penthouse Suite by Henge, comes with its own private sauna and hot tub on a 50 sqm terrace facing the Dolomites.
Where You'll Stay
11 room types available
Deluxe Plus Room
The Deluxe room with an added small extra bed — making it the practical family option among the standard rooms. All the Deluxe features with flexibility for three guests.
Deluxe Room
A step up from Superior, with more generous proportions and typically a balcony with Dolomites views. The same contemporary alpine design: rich fabrics, fir wood panelling, stone accents. A good mid-range option at the hotel.
Dolomites Suite
Generous-sized suite designed for pure relaxation, wrapped in the colours and atmosphere of the Ampezzo landscape. Features a terrace with mountain views and the same use of local fir wood and stone as throughout the property.
Loft Deluxe Room
A duplex room with a mezzanine level and two double beds — the largest sleeping capacity of the standard room categories. Built for groups of friends or families who want the quirky charm of a loft layout without paying suite rates.
Loft Junior Suite
Junior suite with an intimate mezzanine sleeping area, entirely wrapped in fir wood — a material prized for its naturally relaxing properties. Good option for solo travellers or couples who want extra space without a full suite price.
Loft Suite
Suite-level comfort with a mezzanine level housing a second double bed — making it one of the better options for families who don't want to sacrifice suite amenities. Full fir wood interiors and terrace with mountain views.
Penthouse with Dolomites View by Henge
The top-of-the-house option, born from a collaboration with Italian furniture brand Henge and designed by architect Isabella Genovese. A bright attic space with custom wood panelling, a spacious living room with sofas, a bedroom with steam fireplace, and a private wellness area with sauna and hot tub overlooking the peaks. The 50 sqm terrace faces west toward the Tofane for sunset views. Access is only via a private external staircase — genuinely secluded. Includes a Valmont spa gift and butler service on request.
Super King (2x2m) with Simmons mattress · 90 sqmPremium Deluxe Room
The largest standard room category, featuring wider interior spaces plus a private terrace or corner garden. The terrace is the key draw here — it gives the outdoor Dolomites experience even if you're not in a suite.
Romantic Dolomites Suite
A suite with a mezzanine level that houses a spectacular wooden bathtub — a genuinely romantic touch that transforms the room into an intimate couples' nest. Terrace included.
Signature Dolomites Suite
The Signature Suite is an 85 sqm open-plan space — warm pine wood, dark velvets, and contemporary detailing. French windows in the living and dining area open onto a large terrace with a direct view of the Tofane massif. The king bed sits between a walk-in wardrobe and a large bathroom with double sink, hydromassage bathtub, and a separate shower with window. A small courtesy bathroom is also included. Three flat-screen TVs.
King size · 85 sqmSuperior Room
The entry-level room at Rosapetra — intimate and comfortable with the same warm fir-wood-and-stone design language as the rest of the hotel. Most rooms have a balcony or window with Dolomite views. A solid base for guests who plan to spend most of their time in the spa and mountains.
