One of our best hotel experiences ever was at the lovely family owned and run Alpine Hotel Rainell in Ortisei, Italy. Set on a hillside just above the center of town it is an easy walk to town and ski lifts (but a steep 5-10 minute walk back up the hill to the hotel-you can drive up) The hotel is lovely with spacious comfortable rooms, down comforters, comfy beds, clean high end bathrooms and balconies with great views. There are nice outdoor patios in front and back. The dinners included in the very reasonable room price were excellent, lots of great food in a lovely setting with helpful friendly service. The entire staff was helpful, but especially, the owner, George who went above and beyond to help us with lost luggage and a broken down rent a car. Overall, we can't say enough good things about the Hotel Rainell and would highly recommend it to anyone staying in Ortisei! The Cheek family from Arlington, Virginia
