Excelsior Dolomites Life Resort

We're writing a belated review of this wonderful hotel, where we stayed last year around this time. The Excelsior has everything a hotel needs for a vacation in Trentino. Pros that set it above all the properties we've stayed in Trentino (including some from the Belvita group) are: 1) The welcome, which was familiar, warm, and sincere! 2) The strategic location for visiting the region's most popular destinations. 3) The rich weekly activities, managed by a knowledgeable and friendly staff, like Paolo! Miriam, the waitress who accompanied us throughout our week-long stay, with her calm and kindness sweetened what we found to be the cuisine, which wasn't always up to our tastes. The spa and wellness area for adults were the reason we chose a different property this year; A larger property of the Belvita group "located in Lutago in the Aurina Valley" The Excelsior appears to be too small for the number of guests it accommodates... The outdoor pool is merely warm, insufficient to warm you up in the autumn season, which is almost cold. What a shame :( Being on the terrace, in the evening there's a breathtaking view of the starry sky, but unfortunately, our teeth are chattering from the cold even though we're completely immersed in the "heated" pool. The outdoor pool on the ground floor is much better, but unfortunately, it's dedicated to families; it's always crowded with children, making it impossible to relax. The worst thing is the lack of supervision in the relaxation areas, where a few loungers are already occupied from the morning with bags and towels from guests wandering around the spa without actually using them, making it impossible for everyone else to use the loungers and deckchairs. In other facilities, like the one we visited this year, there's always someone assigned to clear away unused and improperly reserved loungers (in typical ITALIAN style) to make them available to all guests. Another commendable note goes to the delightful receptionists (Jessica, Matilde, and Letizia, if we remember their names correctly) who welcomed us every day with a smile and With helpful tips for our outings. What can I say?... If the wellness area's problems listed above were resolved, we'd definitely return here for our future vacations in Trentino, so we can avoid luxurious, all-the-smoke-and-no-frills hotels! Please set a spa rule and raise the temperature of the Skypool to at least 35C.

An unforgettable experience! Everything was simply impeccable! As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by a welcoming atmosphere, with attention to every detail. The room was spacious, bright, and spotlessly clean—a truly cozy haven. The food was a real surprise: every dish was delicious, prepared with passion and using quality ingredients. The staff, always smiling and helpful, made us feel right at home. And what about the spa area? A dream! Gorgeous pool and absolute relaxation. A perfect stay from day one to day two... I can't wait to go back!

The 3/4 board leaves everyone satisfied, with good food and very kind waiters, including a carafe of water... especially considering the incredibly high prices for water in the area... The entire staff speaks perfect Italian. The view will leave you speechless.

Fantastic, modern wellness hotel with a large spa and wellness area. The cuisine is exceptionally good. Very friendly staff!

This was our second time staying at the Hotel Excelsior for wellness and hiking, and we thoroughly enjoyed it! From the food and service to the rooms and spa area, everything was top-notch once again. The incredibly friendly service at the restaurant, bar, and reception—and the lovely, welcoming hosts who were also present in the evenings—contributed to a truly relaxing and wonderful holiday. We'd love to come back again! ️

Everything is great, no complaints! It's really worth coming to this hotel.

Everyday life takes a lot of energy. The Excelsior gives it all back.

An absolutely fantastic hotel that I would recommend 100%. The rooms were spotless and wonderful. All the staff were very friendly, genuine, and attentive. The food was heavenly, practically all-inclusive. Something we've never experienced before in seven South Tyrol holidays: being able to help ourselves to water, juices, and tea at the stations in the pool area (and of course the spa) or even in the afternoon with coffee – absolutely top-notch! The sky pool is heavenly, and all the relaxation areas are wonderful. The sauna infusion was a highlight every time. A truly perfect holiday – thank you to the whole team! ️

A dream in the Dolomites! The Excelsior Dolomites Life Resort in St. Vigil is simply fantastic! From the warm welcome to the last day, everything was perfect. The rooms are modern, comfortable, and offer breathtaking mountain views. The spa area is a highlight – ideal for relaxing after an active day in nature. The food is also top-notch: regional, creative, and prepared with great care. A place to feel good, enjoy, and return to!

If you're looking for a top-notch hotel, you've found it! The staff is incredibly friendly and eager to fulfill your every wish. The hotel is immaculately clean, both inside and out, with a fantastic spa and endless food, like being in a fairytale. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return.
