Nothing ;)

Laurin Small and Charming Hotel truly lives up to its name — and then some. Tucked away like a hidden gem, this family-owned boutique hotel blew us away with its warm hospitality, thoughtful touches, and elevated experience that rivaled any 5-star resort we’ve ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family. We had planned to head to Ortisei for the cable car and not only did the staff provide clear directions, they also handed us complimentary bus passes and a handful of local tips that made all the difference. The next morning, they remembered us and followed up on our plans at breakfast — a small but incredibly thoughtful gesture that you simply won’t find at a chain hotel. Speaking of breakfast… it was glorious. A stunning spread awaited us each morning, featuring what felt like 24 different types of marmalades, locally sourced eggs, fresh breads, and everything beautifully presented. Every bite felt intentional and delicious. Another standout was their welcome aperitivo night — a lovely and unexpected surprise. They served prosecco and small bites to encourage guests to mingle with one another and the hosts. It made the experience feel even more personal and special. The hotel itself is the perfect balance of modern and cozy. It was impeccably clean, stylishly updated, and yet still retained that homey, welcoming feel that only a small family-run hotel can offer. In short, we felt completely spoiled — like we were staying at a luxury hotel but at a very reasonable price. Laurin is a rare find, and we feel lucky to have stumbled upon it. Can’t recommend it highly enough!

nothing other than it was about a 15 min car ride from the main city of ortesi but still very easily accessible

The hotel has a great location. It's only a 7 to 10 min walk to the main square. Shops, restaurants and Gondolas are close. Everyone is very welcoming and friendly. We heard them converse in 3 languages Italian, German and English. Our deluxe room was spacious and had a small balcony. The beds were very comfy and we slept well. The breakfast is amazing. Usually, I'm not a big breakfast person but there are so many delicious treats to choose from you want to try it all. We are lactose intolerant and they have a different milk-alternatives to choose from. We enjoyed the sauna and pool area which are a wonderful relaxing way after a long hike. They have a pool table and we'd have played if we'd have more time.

Our room #40 was right next to the elevator and we could hear voices. The room is close to the road and once we opened the window at night we could hear traffic in the morning. During the night it was fine because it's a very quiet road. It was okay for the night we stayed there. However if I'd stay longer I'd ask for a room away from both.

We had a splendid stay at The Laurin. The room was nice, modern and spacious. The owners were always around and were very friendly and helpful. The staff was very engaged, friendly and supportive. Breakfast was excellent with a huge variety of local ingredients. The wellness and pool are very nice and well equipped. The garden is not too big, but ideal to relax outside. The location of the hotel is perfect to explore the Sella, Seceda and Alpe di Siusi area of the Dolomites. We also got good hiking advice from the hotel staff.

Amazing service, the family running the hotel are fantastic and bring such a personal feeling to the whole stay. I would highly recommend this hotel as a place to stay, great spa facilities and very clean everywhere. So much care is taken in everything and they are excellent hosts. Brilliant breakfast also!

Only small compliant was we found it expensive to charge 50 euros to us a cot per night compared to other hotels when this is normally included or a much lower additional cost. There was also no coffee machine, kettle, or fridge in the room, but they happily leant us a mini fridge for our stay.

This family owned hotel, left the best impression of all the hotels we stayed on our trip to Dolomites! Every space in this hotel was beautifully appointed, and attention to details left an impression on us. Not only was it definitely charming but it was lavish, stylish and modern. Service was over-the-top exceptional, every day! Whenever we had an inquiry, not only did they try to help, but they would get on the phone and make calls for us to facilitate our stay, reducing our anxiety in an unfamiliar place. Everytime we returned from an excursion, they were intent on knowing our experiences and providing advice for the next day's excursions. The breakfast service in the beautiful breakfast room was much better than we experienced anywhere. The attendants welcomed us every morning with smiles, enthusiam and sincere concern with regards to our needs. We were amazed they always knew our names, and what language to speak. Everyone is multi-lingual! In addition to the incredible buffet, they took special orders for the kitchen to prepare eggs for us and took coffee and tea orders too, bringing us pots of coffee. The spa area was beautiful and they provided thick dark gray plush velour robes and slippers during our stay to wear to the spa area. The fitness room was modern, with updated equipment and free weights! One night it was late since we spent our whole day hiking and lost track of time, so restaurants were closing and it was raining. We were carrying a leftover calzone to the bar to get a drink with it. The owners offered to heat it up for us in the toaster oven! They presented it on a real plate with silverware and napkins, and the beers we ordered, while we sat in their beautiful upscale restuarant that was closed for the summer. It never mattered how we were dressed or our situation, we were treated like royalty every moment we stayed there. We will definitely return to The Laurin if we are ever in the area again!!

The location is excellent if you want access to some great cable car rides which are only a short drive away. The hotel is very thoughtfully designed so you have everything you need.The breakfast is exceptional and will set you up for the day and the staff are just always there when you need them. Parking is cheap and adjacent to the hotel. Our room had been recently renovated and was huge. Our first time in Dolomites and really glad we chose this hotel

My partner and I absolutely loved our stay at The Laurin! Upon walking in to the clean, modern lobby, we were greeted with handshakes from the owner. He provided a quick rundown on parking, breakfast (delicious buffet included every morning), and gave us bus passes for the local transit system. Our room was perfectly clean, cozy and offered a wonderful view of the Dolomites outside. We were SHOCKED when we discovered the spa downstairs (pool, saunas, steam room, hot tub, etc) that included a private adults only area. Truly a special experience well worth every penny. All the employees were overwhelmingly positive and polite. We would 100% stay here again.

We wish the rooms had refrigerators in them but very minor inconvenience. Also no air conditioning so it gets a little warm in the peak summer months but the night breeze feels very nice with the windows open.

Everything was fantastic, from the moment we arrived we were treated to home made strudel, we had a beautiful room, the facilities were exceptional- the pool, sauna, spa, garden. Great breakfast. The family running the business were lovely, curious and always willing to help. They helped us with our hikes and even booked them for us - as the lodge is a member of Val Gardena Actuve our hikes were either free or discounted depending on hike. Absolutely brilliant.

Everything was fantastic - nothing to not like.

Hotel is simply great. Looks like it was opened yesterday, extremly clean, nicely furnished with unbeliveable attention to detail. Staff is unusually polite and accomodating, breakfast is plentiful with high quality and localy procured food. Hotel itself is located in the centre of the Selva di val Gardena, parking is large and nice, wifi is maybe not the fastest one but works nicely and stable. One of the very best hotel experiences in a long, long time.

There is absolutely nothing to complain about.
