“Just the job for skiing - and summer biking”

Just the job for skiing with great apartments as well as hotel rooms. Bit of an uphill hike back home after a day on the slopes but they offer a shuttle. Over 1000kms on the lift pass and open for biking and walking in summer. The Dolomites are Disney-style mountains especially at dawn and sunset w… more

Our group has just returned from a great week at the Hotel Olympia. Location above the village requires 5 minute walk uphill end of day, but skis can be stored in heated boot room alongside Burz Lift. Good sized rooms, with ample storage, comfortable beds and balcony. did have one evening of insufficient hot water, but fine rest of time. Food excellent, self served salad bar, Anti Pasta, starter, pasta/soup, main and dessert/cheese. reasonable house wine and tap water available. Friendly and efficient waiting staff. Comfortable and spacious bar, with large selection of reasonable priced drinks. Despite lack of recent snowfall, pistes well maintained, with very few closures. Overall a good weeks skiing

“Good hotel, with not great food or location.”

This a good hotel with great views over the valley. The hotel feels as a four star hotel however the food lets it down. We have had Better food in a two star which is such a shame. The hotel must be running the restaurant on a budget and even for a ski holiday the food is poor. The rooms are … more

This a good hotel with great views over the valley. The hotel feels as a four star hotel however the food lets it down. We have had Better food in a two star which is such a shame. The hotel must be running the restaurant on a budget and even for a ski holiday the food is poor. The rooms are of a good size and well appointed. The hotel is out of town and up a hill. They have their own boot room at the Arabba lift. They will deliver and collect your gear at the start and end of your holiday which was good. However, the hill is a bind the rest of the week. As such, we would have a few drinks in town at a nice wine bar then head up the hill to the hotel for dinner. Several guests were also having issues with a very angry rude French group that made up most of the guests this week at the hotel. Just seems that when the French travel in a group they will barge through everyone including their own group. Arabba is right on the sellaronda, with Arabba fly being part of it. It is also very near the mamalada which was fun to ski and to learn about the WW1. Skiing to the hidden valley was easy from here as well. So, this is a good hotel, with not great food or location, nice staff and good rooms. Arabba having great access to the region via the first lift.

“Homely, welcoming hotel”

Nice hotel to stay in during our week skiing Sella Ronda. Warm welcome on arrival, good explanation of resort layout, there is a ski locker room for hotel guests near Burz chairlift, transport to & from available.

Nice hotel to stay in during our week skiing Sella Ronda. Warm welcome on arrival, good explanation of resort layout, there is a ski locker room for hotel guests near Burz chairlift, transport to & from available. Staff from reception to bar to restaurant were all very helpful, friendly & provided great service. 2nd floor room characterful in alpine/pine style, small balcony, relatively spacious room with small seating area & table, good storage space. Tended to be a bit hot overnight, heating could have been turned down a notch. Food was a highlight, good evening menu selection, 4 courses (& salad course), good wine list. Breakfast decent, excellent coffee as expected. Looked forward to returning to this hotel at the end of a hard day's skiing, spa & sauna available next door, hotel bar had a friendly ambience & Francesca made an excellent Bombardino. Would certainly consider Hotel Olympia if visiting Arabba again.
